Staff Training

This past week I was out of town for much of the week with my annual staff training. I had an excellent prime rib steak at Mary Mahoney's in Biloxi. At the Hard Rock Cafe I tried a burger that is new to me...the Granny Smith Apple and Provolone Burger. Other than that, I was mainly eating seafood.

Finally home, I planned to grill tonight but there is a nice steady rain storm over Birmingham. Though we need the rain it sure puts a damper on my plans.

My wife can grill!

Kudos to my wife! Friday afternoon, while I did yard work, I let her use the grill. Of course, I got the charcoals started and spread. I assembled the rub and patted out the burgers. She applied the rub to the patties and took care of everthing!

I tried a new hamburger seasoning that was fairly tasty.

3 teaspoons of paprika
3 teaspoons of black pepper
2 teaspoons of salt
1 teaspoon of dark brown sugar
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper

For now this is my new favorite burger seasoning.

More Shrooms

Though we love mushrooms this recipe was not worth repeating. I created a mushroom "sauce" in a mixer. It also had sour cream and some salt/pepper.

I will continue to work on this recipe and post it when I get it right!
