When we do burgers, it&#8217;s typically store bought pre-formed and frozen for convenience only. The husband takes them to work fully cooked on the smoke bbq and cooled down, with a slice of cheese and anything else he wants to add to it on the fly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I was cleaning out the two freezers last night (the one attached to the fridge, and our cube stand up mini freezer) and found some portioned ground pork in ziplock bags. I pulled them out thinking I can use it for a dinner this week. Not specifically anything like burgers, but sometimes I like to form them into a meatloaf or meatballs before even thinking about burgers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tonight I made burgers for a change of pace. And now my husband is demanding to be kept in the style to which he quickly became accustomed to (as of tonight). *sigh* Ok, fine. Here is what I made him:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Creole Burgers:<\/strong><br>14 oz Ground Pork<br>3 tea <a href=\"http:\/\/auntiestacey.com\/?p=1808\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Creole Dry Rub<\/a><br>I Egg<br>3\/4 C Breadcrumbs (of your choice, though I used Italian flavoured)<br>1\/4 C Parmesan Cheese, grated up<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don&#8217;t overwork the meat mixture as you combine everything. I measured out meat for three patties at 4.6\/4.7\/4.7 oz each. Each was hefty and fantastic. It was a tasty burger on its own that could forgo a bun if need be. But, of course we topped it with sauces, veg and lettuce from our herb garden. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"901\" height=\"726\" src=\"http:\/\/auntiestacey.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/beyondmeattruck.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1838\" srcset=\"https:\/\/auntiestacey.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/beyondmeattruck.png 901w, https:\/\/auntiestacey.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/beyondmeattruck-300x242.png 300w, https:\/\/auntiestacey.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/beyondmeattruck-768x619.png 768w, https:\/\/auntiestacey.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/beyondmeattruck-372x300.png 372w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 901px) 100vw, 901px\" \/><figcaption>I was spoiled Beyond when this truck showed up at my workplace.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>I was, I suppose, trying to give that Beyond Meat burger I had earlier this week a run for its money. I think this burger is just as tasty as the meatless one. Similar flavour palette, same texture, same satisfying feeling in our tummies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Try this burger recipe and tell me what you think.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I don&#8217;t make a lot of burgers by hand at home.
