We decided that we needed to do more traditions in our family and besides all the spiritual ones we are doing, we are starting a tradition of gluttony the week after fathers day. Since I the father am a glutton of sandwiches, I came up with this plan. Monday was a great day and we learned how to make a great hamburger. We decided the griddle indoors is much better than outside on the grill when you want a nice juicy (leaking with fat and blood), hamburger. Preparation of the hamburger consisted of pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, worchestershierer sauce, that instead of pressing to mix in, the beef ground beef was shredded and lightly balled. Salt is only added after they are placed on the grill. On the grill they were pressed only once and the edges are smashed to round the jagged edges and make sure edges were touching the grill. 5 minutes on one side and then turned for 3 minutes gives the patty a nice crusty edge. We decided to grill mushrooms, jalapenos, and onions to go with texas toast for the parents burgers. For the children they love the hamburgers with thinly diced onions, ketchup, mustard and bacon on regular toasted buns. A boy in the family who wishes to remain anonymous said "We should cook bacon everyday!" Chio thinks they were "great!" I thought it was a wonderful tasting burger with plenty of juice. Next time I will avoid all toppings to just taste the wonderful meat inside.
