… as in burger! and Tiffany K, before ya get yer shorts in a knot, wasn’t mine… 3 co-workers had ’em! bastards! know there’s portabello and jalapeño… and at 20 bucks a pop (sans fries), know it ain’t cheap! but, do know i want one… Tiff, ya in?!
Finally … pics, lol! I think it’s day 3? And I def know, I’m the master of using what’s in my pantry/fridge … I’m The King of Leftovers!!
… roasted yellow peppers, jalapeño peppers, garlic & sweet onions too!!
Served w/ olive ciabatta, Romano Lupa … bob’s yer f’n uncle!!
… ok, ok, MAYBE not numero uno, but def in contention … we’ve (I, I folks, lol) made many a great burger through the years, this ranks right at the top. It’s Whole Foods ultimate burger … they have a gazillion to choose from, and I was being lazy (and running late), so I went old school basic (good quality beef, with 80/20 lean/fat ratio – minimum) and dressed it up myself … cremini mushrooms, jalapeño jack cheese, vidalia onion … w/ my homemade bomber sauce (low-fat mayo, mustard, bbq sauce, horseradish) … check out the pics, y’all!
look at the amount of fat …
doing their thang on the grill …
served w/ homecut fries (look at that OOZING cheese) …
pink, pink, and more pink … PERFECT …
… steaks!! Skirt steak y’all!! It’s the quintessential cut of meat for many Tex-Mex style types of food. I’m talking eating with your hands food … tightly wrapped in a fajita while you fight a losing battle trying to eat it without it bursting, or any juices dripping down your chin … good luck!! These bad boys (surprisingly, finding these ain’t as easy as you’d think, but as always is the case … perseverance pays off) came courtesy (not implying they were free … I paid, lol) my local Whole Foods Market. And the beauty is once you grill the steaks, there aren’t any rules … make the fajitas as you wish, use anything/whatever tickles your palate. Today, went with my grilled poblano and sweet onion relish, shredded Queso panela, a bit of lettuce, and a dollop (or 2) of sour cream (fat-free) smeared on the shell. Wrap ‘n tuck the sucker and have at ‘er … served with my black bean, peaches & cream corn, tomato, jalapeño salad … well, life ain’t too bad!! 😉
tortillas, fajitas … tomato, tomahto … AND straight from Mexico, how authentic is that? …
even more authenticity …
my fave: poblano & onion relish …
beans ‘n corn salad …
flames and smoke … my little bit of hardwood charcoal heaven …
took the pic, grabbed my plate and bbq tongs … we’re done folks …
2 steaks – 1 mouth …joshing Tiffany K … JUST joshing, lol …
and finally … voilà …
