Title: Crunchified Bacon Cheese Burgers
Post by: Vermin99 on July 20, 2012, 06:08:24 PM
Saw somewhere where somebody put shoestring potatoes on top of a burger to make it crunchy. I saw a container of them yesterday while shopping and knew exactly what was for dinner today.

Plated with some shoestring potatoes on top of each patty,  all of the usual fixings for a burger, more shoestring potatoes on the plate and some blue box mac and cheese.

Thatsa burger.

Regarding the bacon, i too have been cooking it on the grill.  I learned a method whereby you thread them on skewers in a wave pattern for even cooking.  I will see if i can finf a pic of what I am talking about.

I don't know if I belong here... Man, you guys cook up some awesome looking food.  I am just starting on the creative cooking and I feel so inadequate when I see these pics. 

I love using your ideas and seeing the pics.  Please keep them coming!
