Turkey sandwiches at lunch today. Also had them yesterday, but I inhaled mine so quickly that no photos were possible.
Dinner tonight: used a pound of 50/50 ground beef/bacon blend we got from Creekstone for some 2-zone green chile squealer cheeseburgers (in honor of the iconic Tookie's hamburger joint in the Clear Lake area south of Houston, TX). Set up the GrillGrates so I could sprinkle some pellets into the middle rail while the patties sat on the indirect side up to 160F IT. Seared for a minute per side to finish (cheese on top for the last minute), with some simple oven fries and a splendid Sierra Nevada Celebration Ale. (I cannot stop myself from thinking of that old Kool & The Gang hit... Cellllllll-a-bration Ale, come ON!)
Significant tactical error: should have made quarter-pound patties. These half-pounders were very dense indeed at the fairly fine grind they're blended at. Would like it coarser - but damn they were delicious. Juicy as all getout too. Glad we have another pound of this in the freezer!
(sorry that one is a little blurry)
