GrillWorx last nite was devoted to teaching the Teenager the skills of the trade. So dinner was Teenager's Choice. Of course, that means Burgers and Fries!
The Teen's burgers were Angus patties. We mixed a blend of shredded Cheddar and Pepper Jack Cheese, chopped Jalapenos (thanks Brandi!) and Applewood Smoked Bacon, thick sliced, and grilled (on a piece of foil so the drippings do not catch fire!) to crispy perfection. The Bacon was crumbled up and that along with the Cheese and Jalapenos were blended into the ground Angus. Seasonings were simple... Montreal Spicy Steak Seasoning. Rather than Cheddar/Bacon/Etc., my burger was mixed with Bleu Cheese, fresh crushed Garlic, and S&P. (Sea Salt and Pepper...I use a blend of Black, Red, and White peppercorns, and prefer a coarse grind!)
The Teen's Burgers (yeah, he had two!) were served on King's Hawai'ian Sandwich Rolls. Mine was naked... sans buns, but with a big slice of Tomato.
As accoutrements, the Teenager selected Fries and Onion Rings. These are pre-fab... directly from your grocer's freezer section. Teenager spritzed a little non-stick cooking spray on a sheet of foil and arranged the Frozen Treats in a single layer. The Teenager likes spicy (wonder where he gets that!), so he liberally seasoned the fries with Montreal Spicy Steak Seasoning.
For me, the accompaniment did not include Fries and Onion Rings, but rather left-overs from lunch...Grape Tomatoes and Mozzarella Cheese, with a few leaves from my beloved Basil plant.
Glass o' Wine (or two!) on the deck for me, and a big glass of ice cold milk for the teen!
Welcome to Julie's GrillWorx!
I started grilling as a quest to eat healthier - fresh veggies, low fat protein, & lower sodium. But grilling morphed into much more than putting fire to food! It's a way to shake off the day's stress! The deck is my sanctuary...On my grill I sacrifice all of the day's drama to the grilling gods!
Please join me on my outdoors epicurean adventure! Everything here is really quite yummy... especially if you've had enough wine! ;-}
Welcome to Julie's GrillWorx!
It's really just all about the wine...
