In a large pan (I prefer cast iron), over medium high heat, brown 1 lb of lean ground pork by breaking it apart into small pieces as it cooks. Add a little vegetable oil to the pan as needed to prevent sticking, depending on how lean the meat is. Once cooked through, transfer to a covered dish for keeping while the vegetables cook. Prep the vegetables while the meat is cooking to save time.<\/p>\n<p>Reduce the heat to medium and add the diced onions and shredded carrots to the pan the pork was cooked in. Cook for 3 minutes. Add a little oil as needed to prevent sticking.\u00a0 Add 6 cups of shredded cabbage to the pan and cook for about 3 minutes, or until the cabbage is wilted.\u00a0 While the cabbage is cooking, whisk together the minced garlic, ground ginger, soy sauce, oyster sauce, fish sauce and corn starch in a small bowl. Once the cabbage is wilted add it to the pan. Continue to cook, stirring frequently, until all of the liquid is absorbed, and then remove the pan from the heat. Allow the mixture to cool for 10-15 minutes before filling the egg rolls.<\/p>\n<p>To fill the egg rolls add 1\/4 C of filling to the center of the roll, fold in one corner, lightly wet it by dipping your finger in water, and fold over a second and a third corner. Lightly wet the folded corners again, and then roll the egg roll towards the fourth corner to form a roll. Place each spring roll on a lightly greased baking sheet and lightly brush each one with vegetable oil. Bake in a 400\u00ba F oven for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown. Best served immediately.<\/p>\n<p>*When cutting your cabbage, discard the white heart of the leaf and just use the green, leafy part.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h1><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Roasted Tomato Soup<\/strong><\/span><\/h1>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2117\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2117\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-2117\" src=\"https:\/\/aladaymobilemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/unnamed-1-1-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aladaymobilemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/unnamed-1-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/aladaymobilemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/unnamed-1-1-1x1.jpg 1w, https:\/\/aladaymobilemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/unnamed-1-1.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2117\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">courtesy Lake Tahoe Markets.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>5 large tomatoes, cut into \u00be\u201d slices<br \/>\n1 yellow onion, cut into \u00bd\u201d slices<br \/>\n\u00bd jalapeno, cut in half lengthwise, seeded<br \/>\n2 red bell peppers, seeded, cut into 4 pieces<br \/>\nOlive oil<br \/>\n\u00bc tsp. smoked paprika<br \/>\n\u00bd tsp. garlic powder<br \/>\n1 tsp. salt<br \/>\n\u00bd tsp. pepper<br \/>\n2 cups vegetable broth<br \/>\n\u00bc cup grated parmesan cheese (plus more for garnish)<\/p>\n<p>Preheat oven to 375 degrees.\u00a0 Arrange all vegetables on baking sheet.\u00a0 Drizzle all over with olive oil.\u00a0 Roast for 20 minutes.<\/p>\n<p>Add all ingredients to blender and blend until smooth.\u00a0 Taste and adjust seasoning.\u00a0 Pour into a pot and heat to serve.\u00a0 Garnish with additional parmesan cheese and serve with crusty bread.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h1><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><strong>Zuppa Tuscana<\/strong><\/span><\/h1>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2114\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2114\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-2114\" src=\"https:\/\/aladaymobilemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/unnamed-12-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aladaymobilemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/unnamed-12-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/aladaymobilemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/unnamed-12-1x1.jpg 1w, https:\/\/aladaymobilemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/unnamed-12.jpg 560w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2114\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">courtesy Lake Tahoe Markets<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><em>Who knew that making something so satisfying could be so easy?!<\/em><\/p>\n<p>1 lb. sausage<br \/>\n4 cups half-and-half<br \/>\n3 cups cubed potatoes<br \/>\n2 cups chicken broth<br \/>\n2 cups whole milk<br \/>\n1 medium onion, chopped<br \/>\n1 tsp. dried oregano<br \/>\n1 tsp. red pepper flakes<br \/>\n1 tsp. pepper<br \/>\n2 cups torn kale leaves<\/p>\n<p>Heat a large soup pot over medium-high heat.\u00a0 Crumble sausage into pot and cook until browned; discard excess oil.\u00a0 Stir half-and-half, potatoes, chicken broth, milk, onion, oregano, and red pepper flakes into sausage, bring to a boil, and reduce heat to low.

In a large pan (I prefer cast iron), over medium high heat, brown 1 lb of lean ground pork by breaking it apart into small pieces as it cooks. Add a little vegetable oil to the pan as needed to prevent sticking, depending on how lean the meat is. Once cooked through, transfer to a covered dish for keeping while the vegetables cook. Prep the vegetables while the meat is cooking to save time.<\/p>\n<p>Reduce the heat to medium and add the diced onions and shredded carrots to the pan the pork was cooked in. Cook for 3 minutes. Add a little oil as needed to prevent sticking.\u00a0 Add 6 cups of shredded cabbage to the pan and cook for about 3 minutes, or until the cabbage is wilted.\u00a0 While the cabbage is cooking, whisk together the minced garlic, ground ginger, soy sauce, oyster sauce, fish sauce and corn starch in a small bowl. Once the cabbage is wilted add it to the pan. Continue to cook, stirring frequently, until all of the liquid is absorbed, and then remove the pan from the heat. Allow the mixture to cool for 10-15 minutes before filling the egg rolls.<\/p>\n<p>To fill the egg rolls add 1\/4 C of filling to the center of the roll, fold in one corner, lightly wet it by dipping your finger in water, and fold over a second and a third corner. Lightly wet the folded corners again, and then roll the egg roll towards the fourth corner to form a roll. Place each spring roll on a lightly greased baking sheet and lightly brush each one with vegetable oil. Bake in a 400\u00ba F oven for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown. Best served immediately.<\/p>\n<p>*When cutting your cabbage, discard the white heart of the leaf and just use the green, leafy part.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Classic <span style=\"color: #008000;\">French Onion<\/span> Soup<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1743\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1743\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1743\" src=\"https:\/\/aladaymobilemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/french-onion-300x297.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"297\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aladaymobilemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/french-onion-300x297.jpg 300w, https:\/\/aladaymobilemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/french-onion-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/aladaymobilemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/french-onion-768x761.jpg 768w, https:\/\/aladaymobilemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/french-onion-1x1.jpg 1w, https:\/\/aladaymobilemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/french-onion.jpg 999w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1743\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">courtesy Lake Tahoe Markets<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h1><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>Classic French Onion Soup<br \/>\n<\/strong><br \/>\n\u00bc cup butter<br \/>\n3 lbs. sweet onions, sliced<br \/>\n2 cloves garlic, minced<br \/>\n1\/3 cup dry white wine<br \/>\n6 cups beef stock<br \/>\n4 sprigs fresh thyme<br \/>\n2 bay leaves<br \/>\n2 tsp. white wine vinegar<br \/>\nSalt and pepper, to taste<br \/>\n12 French baguette slices (3\/4 inch thick)<br \/>\n1 cup shredded Swiss cheese<br \/>\n1 cup shredded Gruy\u00e8re cheese<\/span><\/h1>\n<p>Melt butter in a large stockpot or Dutch oven over medium heat.

There\u2019s nothing like the simple pleasure of sinking your teeth into a corn on the cob \u2013 amply worth the minor nuisance of getting those little fibers wedged between your teeth.<\/p>\n<p>As delicious as traditional boiled corn on the cob is, when grilled it\u2019s even more of a treat.<\/p>\n<p>There are many ways people like to grill corn on the cob. Some shuck them and place the ears directly on the grill. Some peel back the husks, lather the kernels with butter and seasonings, then pull the husks back over the kernels and grill the ears. Others soak the unshucked ears in buckets of water before placing them on the grill. And I\u2019m sure there are many more ways of grilling corn.<\/p>\n<p>For me, the most special thing about fresh, sweet corn is how juicy and tender the kernels are. Preserving that succulent essence is as important to me as the intense flavor you get from the grill. That\u2019s why placing the shucked ears directly on the grill is my least favorite method. It burns off the sugars so much that the kernels become hard, tasteless, sticky bits.<\/p>\n<p>After experimenting a few times I found that shucking the corn to the last couple of layers, and brushing the remaining husks with a little oil before placing them on the grill accomplishes my goals. The kernels remain juicy, plump and sweet,\u00a0<em>and<\/em>\u00a0they acquire that irresistible smoky-flavor. Now I\u2019m ready to fire up the grill again. How about you?<\/p>\n<p>4 large ears fresh corn \u2013 husks removed to the last 2 layers only<br \/>\n1 Tbsp. olive oil to brush the ears<br \/>\nButter<br \/>\nSalt and pepper<\/p>\n<p>Preheat gas grill to medium-high heat or prepare charcoal grill.\u00a0 Brush the husks with the oil and set aside on a tray. When the grill is ready, place corn directly on the grill and grill until husks are charred, rotating them so that they grill evenly on all sides. Transfer to a tray and let stand until cool enough to handle. Remove husks, spread a little butter or brush cob with a little olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and serve<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bacon Wrapped Corn on the Cob<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>WHO doesn&#8217;t like Bacon???<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1569\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1569\" style=\"width: 265px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1569\" src=\"https:\/\/aladaymobilemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/baconcorn-265x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"265\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aladaymobilemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/baconcorn-265x300.jpg 265w, https:\/\/aladaymobilemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/baconcorn-1x1.jpg 1w, https:\/\/aladaymobilemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/baconcorn.jpg 665w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 265px) 100vw, 265px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1569\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">courtesy Lake Tahoe Markets<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Even the kids will eat their veggies when there is bacon involved!!!!<\/p>\n<p>As long as you\u2019ve got the grill fired up you may as well use it. Corn on the cob comes with a natural handle that makes it easy to turn the cobs on the grill.\u00a0 For this bacon-wrapped corn recipe, try lining the bacon with basil and jalapen\u0303o pepper before you wrap it around the corn. The bacon crisps and the corn steams inside. Some of that smoky flavor penetrates, and as you bite into the corn you get bright bursts of aromatic basil and the sweet heat of the jalapen\u0303o pepper. This bacon-wrapped corn on the cob is so good it\u2019s practically a meal all by itself.<\/p>\n<p>3 lbs. bacon slices<br \/>\n1 bunch basil (leaves only)<br \/>\n2 jalapeno peppers, thinly sliced<br \/>\n8 ears corn, shucked<\/p>\n<p>Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.\u00a0 Lay a 13-by-18-inch piece of parchment paper on your countertop and lay 6 or 7 slices of bacon alongside each other, slightly overlapping one another, fat side against meat side, to form a rough rectangle that is as wide as an ear of corn is long. Cover with another sheet of parchment paper and pound lightly with a meat mallet or small saute\u0301 pan to flatten the bacon and press it together. Remove the top parchment sheet and decorate the bacon with 10 to 12 small pieces of basil (you can tear up the larger leaves) and a few slices of jalapen\u0303o pepper.\u00a0 Lay 1 ear of corn across the bottom of the rectangle and roll the corn up in the bacon. Transfer the bacon-wrapped corn to the prepared baking sheet, laying it seam side down on the parchment paper.\u00a0Repeat the process with the remaining 7 ears of corn (you can use the same 2 pieces of parchment paper) until all are wrapped in bacon. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 8 hours and up to 24 hours.<\/p>\n<p>Preheat a grill to medium heat.\u00a0 If you have a larger grill with an upper rack, use that to cook the bacon.\u00a0 Grill the corn, starting with the bacon seam side down. Give them a quarter turn every 5 minutes until all of the bacon is crisp and caramelized and the corn is tender, 25 to 30 minutes total.\u00a0 Alternatively, you can lay the bacon-wrapped corn on a rack set over a baking sheet and cook it in a 350 F \/ 180 C oven for 25 to 30 minutes, until the bacon is crisp and the corn is tender. This bacon-wrapped corn on the cob is delicious served \u200bwith a charred lime crema<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><strong>Double-Decker Portabella Burger<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1494\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1494\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1494\" src=\"https:\/\/aladaymobilemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/6_9-300x264.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"264\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aladaymobilemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/6_9-300x264.jpg 300w, https:\/\/aladaymobilemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/6_9-1024x900.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/aladaymobilemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/6_9-768x675.jpg 768w, https:\/\/aladaymobilemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/6_9-1x1.jpg 1w, https:\/\/aladaymobilemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/6_9.jpg 1365w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1494\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">courtesy Lake Tahoe Markets<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Portabella mushrooms have a hearty texture that makes them a good candidate for these easy meatless burgers<\/p>\n<p>7 cloves garlic, divided<br \/>\n1\/4 cup olive oil, plus extra for brushing<br \/>\n1 Tbsp. balsamic vinegar<br \/>\n1 tsp. red pepper flakes<br \/>\nSalt<br \/>\n8 large\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/laketahoemarkets.us3.list-manage.com\/track\/click?u=dfdf2aa7454829c4ecd9b6ec3&amp;id=fef571acb0&amp;e=990e6f5cea\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/LakeTahoeMarkets.us3.list-manage.com\/track\/click?u%3Ddfdf2aa7454829c4ecd9b6ec3%26id%3Dfef571acb0%26e%3D990e6f5cea&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1623416980330000&amp;usg=AFQjCNGnKpOvxi1Gis_ei_BQkpGCXKsCug\">portabella mushrooms<\/a>, gills scrapped out with a spoon<br \/>\n1\/4 cup mayonnaise<br \/>\n1 Tbsp. lemon juice<br \/>\n1 tsp. finely chopped parsley<br \/>\n1\/2 sweet onion, cut into 4 thick slices<br \/>\n1 large firm tomato, cut into 4 thick slices<br \/>\n4 oz. fresh mozzarella, cut into 8 slices<br \/>\n4 mini whole grain ciabatta buns, halved<\/p>\n<p>Mince 6 cloves garlic.\u00a0 Place in a small bowl and whisk in oil, vinegar, red pepper flakes and a pinch of salt.\u00a0 Place mushrooms in a shallow dish.\u00a0 Add marinade, turning mushrooms to coat.\u00a0 Let stand 30 minutes, turning once.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, grate remaining garlic clove.\u00a0 combine in a small bowl with mayonnaise, lemon juice, parsley and pinch of salt.\u00a0 Refrigerate.<\/p>\n<p>Preheat grill to medium-high.<\/p>\n<p>Brush onion and tomato with oil.\u00a0 Remove mushrooms from marinade, allowing excess to drip off.\u00a0 Grill mushrooms and onion 3-5 minutes per side or until tender and slightly bronzed.\u00a0 Grill tomato 3 minutes on 1 side.<\/p>\n<p>Turn mushrooms gill-side up.\u00a0 Top evenly with mozzarella.\u00a0 Grill 3-4 minutes or until cheese is melted.\u00a0 Grill buns, cut side down, 1 minute.\u00a0 Spread buns evenly with mayonnaise mixture.\u00a0 Top bottom half of each bun with 2 mushrooms, 1 onion slice, 1 tomato slice and top half of bun.<\/p>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #800000;\"><strong>The Perfect Grilled Burger<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1472\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1472\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1472\" src=\"https:\/\/aladaymobilemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/unnamed-5-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aladaymobilemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/unnamed-5-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/aladaymobilemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/unnamed-5-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/aladaymobilemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/unnamed-5-1x1.jpg 1w, https:\/\/aladaymobilemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/unnamed-5.jpg 966w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1472\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Courtesy Lake Tahoe Markets<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>1 lb. 80\/20 ground beef, cold<br \/>\n4 cloves minced garlic<br \/>\n2 Tbsp. minced onion<br \/>\n1 Tbsp.

use a clean skillet with a little oil to cook dinner on the stovetop, you want to start with a clean grill with oiled grill grates when making dinner on the grill.\u00a0 Start by scrubbing your grill grates with a grill brush to remove any built-up residue from past meals.\u00a0 Then oil the grill by dipping a folded paper towel in oil and using grilling tongs to rub the oil soaked towel on the grates.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Use an 80\/20 mix of ground beef.<\/strong>\u00a0 A burger can be seasoned a hundred different ways, but it means nothing without a solid foundation.\u00a0 For a juicy, flavorful burger, skip the extra-lean ground beef patty blends and use ground beef with a higher fat content.\u00a0 Ground beef with an 80\/20 mix is the best for grilled burgers.\u00a0 This means a mix of 80 percent lean beef and 20 percent fat.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Keep the meat cold.<\/strong>\u00a0 The heat from your hands combined with room temperature ground beef can melt and smear the fat.\u00a0 This prevents the fat from binding with the lean meat, causing too much of it to render during the cooking process, resulting in a dry, dense burger.<\/p>\n<p>The solution is to keep the meat cold and shape the patties as quickly as possible.\u00a0 Leave the ground beef in the refrigerator until you are ready to season it and form the patties.\u00a0 Then, mix the ground beef just until it comes together and not a second more.\u00a0 Form it into patties and put them back in the fridge until you are ready to grill.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Don\u2019t over-mix the ground beef.\u00a0<\/strong>\u00a0Less is more when it comes to mixing the ground beef and forming patties.\u00a0 If you\u2019ve eaten a burger that crumbles apart as you eat it, that was mostly likely a result of someone overworking the beef.\u00a0 The results are similar to what happens with a broken emulsion.\u00a0 You are trying to get the fat and the protein to bind together, but if you overmix it, you will \u201cbreak\u201d the binding, causing your burger to dry out, crumble, and lose flavor.<\/p>\n<p>So, here\u2019s what to do:\u00a0 Evenly sprinkle your seasonings over the ground beef and use your hands to fold them in gently.\u00a0 After mixing, take a piece about the size of a quarter and flatten it to the palm of your hand.\u00a0 Turn your palm down.\u00a0 If the meat sticks, you\u2019re good to go.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sorry, guys \u2026 size matters \u2026 when it comes to burgers!<\/strong>\u00a0 Some people like the idea of a huge hamburger patty spilling out over the edges of the bun, and some believe it should be a perfect fit. But\u00a0<em>no one<\/em>\u00a0want a burger that\u2019s smaller than the bun.<\/p>\n<p>To correctly size your patties to fit on your buns, make your burgers about 1-inch thick at the edges and one inch larger than the bun.\u00a0 This takes into account the inevitable shrinkage that happens during cooking.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Should you dimple your patties?<\/strong>\u00a0 All over the internet and in cookbooks, you will find burger recipes that will instruct you to make an indentation in the center of the patties, usually about the size of a thumbprint or a tablespoon.\u00a0 The goal in dimpling is to prevent the burger from puffing up in the center.\u00a0 But, does it really work?\u00a0 Well, I tried it.\u00a0 I found that a thumbprint or tablespoon indention prevented center puffing, but the burgers still shrank.\u00a0 Making a wide, shallow depression in the patty, however, worked like a charm.\u00a0 Think of a salad plate rather than a donut.<\/p>\n<p>Even better, though, place an ice cube in the center and form the beef around it so it\u2019s sealed.\u00a0 The ice cube will prevent the burgers from overcooking and add bit of extra moisture to the beef \u2013 something that is especially helpful if you are grilling rather large patties.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Charcoal vs. Gas?<\/strong>\u00a0 That is the question.\u00a0 Lake Tahoe Markets believes that the best choice for grilling burgers is always wood or charcoal because of the additional flavor and charring that happens with those grills.\u00a0 Charcoal is more versatile.\u00a0 You get a hotter, drier heat which give you a better sear.\u00a0 If you use charcoal, you can add different kinds of wood to contribute to the smokiness and enhance the overall flavor of the meat.<\/p>\n<p>However, if you prefer a gas grill because of its ease of use, and the lack of mess, don\u2019t worry \u2013 you can still cook a great burger on a gas grill! \u00a0When using a gas grill, you want to make sure to get the grill up to 450 to 500 degrees before adding your patties.<\/p>\n<p>How long to grill burgers.\u00a0 In general, following these grilling times:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>For rare burgers, cook for 4 minutes total (125\u00b0F)<\/li>\n<li>For medium-rare burgers, cook for 5 minutes total (135\u00b0F)<\/li>\n<li>For medium burgers, cook for 6-7 minutes total (145\u00b0F)<\/li>\n<li>For well-done burgers, cook for 8-9 minutes total (160\u00b0F)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Please note that the USDA recommends cooking ground meats to an internal temperature of at least 160\u00b0F, which is well done without any pink in the center.\u00a0 Cooking burgers to other degrees of doneness should be done at the cook\u2019s discretion.<\/p>\n<p>All this said, ultimately, the time it takes for a hamburger to reach a certain temperature depends on how hot your grill is and how thick the patty is.\u00a0 You can check the temperature of the burger by inserting a meat thermometer through the side, not through the top, which provides a more accurate reading.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Flip \u2013 DON\u2019T PRESS \u2013 your burgers.<\/strong>\u00a0 Once you put those patties on the grill, don\u2019t press them down.\u00a0 Pressing forces the fat and flavor out of the burgers, which results in dry, bland patties.\u00a0 However, feel free to frequently flip your burgers.\u00a0 While it was once believed that it was best to let the burger be and only flip once during cooking, it is now recommended that frequent flipping cooks a burger more evenly.<\/p>\n<p>When to add the cheese?\u00a0 Add cheese about 1 minute before the burger is finished cooking.\u00a0 If you put the cheese on too early, you risk it melting off.\u00a0 Too late, and you could over cook the patty waiting for the perfect melt.\u00a0 Timing is everything, after all!<\/p>\n<p><strong>When to toast the buns?\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong>The perfect toasted buns are rich with butter and sturdy enough to hold all of the wonderful fixings of a hamburger, but they also squish down and are easy to bite through.\u00a0 Whichever buns you choose, butter the top and bottom of the bun, and then plop them on the back of the grill, out of direct heat, until they are golden.\u00a0 Start toasting the buns with you have a minute left on the patties.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Don\u2019t\u2019 forget to rest your burgers.<\/strong>\u00a0 Let the burgers rest for a minute after they come off the grill.\u00a0 This allows time for the juices to redistribute throughout the burger, giving you a more flavorful experience.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ways to flavor your burgers.<\/strong>\u00a0 Once you have mastered the basic burger, feel free to get funky with your flavors.\u00a0 You can add mushrooms, herbs or cubes of cheese. Or, try adding lemon zest to the ground beef, which cuts the fatty flavor of the meat.\u00a0 Ultimately, the choice is yours.\u00a0 As long as the patty is meaty and juicy, you can\u2019t go wrong.<\/p>\n<p>While there is no right or wrong way to grill a hamburger, following this advice will assure that you will have a burger to write home to Mom about!<\/p>\n<h1><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><strong>Spring Pea Salad<\/strong><\/span><\/h1>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1347\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1347\" style=\"width: 209px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1347\" src=\"https:\/\/aladaymobilemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/pea-209x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"209\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aladaymobilemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/pea-209x300.jpg 209w, https:\/\/aladaymobilemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/pea-1x1.jpg 1w, https:\/\/aladaymobilemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/pea.jpg 712w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 209px) 100vw, 209px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1347\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">photo courtesy Lake Tahoe Markets<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><em>This salad has two different types of peas in it, topped over a bed of spinach and arugula, with radishes and the most delicious creamy lemon dressing.

The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.timeanddate.com\/calendar\/spring-equinox.html\">Fall or Vernal Equinox<\/a> has officially arrived and the air has started to become cooler. The days shorter, and the fruits of our summers long labor on upon us. This, as many of my loyal followers know, is my infamous Pico &#8216;D Gallo\u00a0 Recipe. Unlike most other recipes I use a combination of tomatoes, onions, and chilies, for maximum flavors. This particular batch included 5 chilies, 2 types of bell peppers, two onions and three types of tomatoes. The vegetables were a combination of Farmers Market and from the <a href=\"https:\/\/aladaymobilemedia.com\/projects\/\">garden on the current project<\/a> where I am living.\u00a0 While most Pico recipes are very basic I find that a combination of the main ingredients provide for an extremely robust flavor and also create the opportunity to show off. You can see what I mean by viewing my<a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/3KBzS7a4hY8\"> 2.5 minute video here<\/a>. I made two different levels of hot yesterday. In the past I have made up 6 levels of hot using a variety of chilies. I was able to find a couple of <a href=\"https:\/\/krishijagran.com\/agripedia\/bhut-jolokia-origin-uses-and-commercial-cultivation-of-ghost-chili\/\">Bhut Jolokia<\/a> or the infamous Ghost Pepper. That combined with the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fresnochili.com\/\">Fresno Chili<\/a>, a red and\u00a0 medium chili in heat with a sweet flavor, the Cayenne Chili, which has a ton of<a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthline.com\/nutrition\/8-benefits-of-cayenne-pepper\"> health benefits<\/a>,\u00a0 a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thespruceeats.com\/anaheim-peppers-995559\">Anaheim Chili<\/a> which are great for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.allrecipes.com\/recipe\/219646\/authentic-mexican-chili-rellenos\/\">Chili Relleno&#8217;s<\/a>, not quite as good as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hatchchileco.com\/\">Hatch Chili<\/a>, (which I&#8217;m a little biased as that is my favorite chili). I also used a couple <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pepperscale.com\/hungarian-wax-pepper\/\">Hungarian Wax Peppers<\/a> and two Bell Peppers. The Bells provide a sweet flavor.<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-707 size-thumbnail\" src=\"https:\/\/aladaymobilemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/20200922_141330-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aladaymobilemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/20200922_141330-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/aladaymobilemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/20200922_141330-1x1.jpg 1w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><strong><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Ingredients<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>2 Pounds Roma Tomatoes<\/p>\n<p>2 Pound Vine Tomatoes<\/p>\n<p>1 Pound Big Boy Tomatoes<\/p>\n<p>1 Lg Red Onion<\/p>\n<p>1 Lg White Onion<\/p>\n<p>2 Bell Pepper use Red and Orange for color<\/p>\n<p>1 Bunch Cilantro<\/p>\n<p>2 LG Cloves Garlic smashed and finely chopped<\/p>\n<p>6 sprigs of fresh Oregano finely chopped<\/p>\n<p>2 tsp Ground Cumin<\/p>\n<p>4 Limes 3 Juiced 1 for slices when serving<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-710 size-thumbnail\" src=\"https:\/\/aladaymobilemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/20200922_143939-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aladaymobilemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/20200922_143939-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/aladaymobilemedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/20200922_143939-1x1.jpg 1w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Chop all ingredients by hand or use a chopper.

If you wish to have a sweet Pico &#8216;d Gallo then use Bell Peppers and add chopped mango. Squeeze 3 Limes into base. Separate into bowls and then add your chilies. Unless of course, you only require one level of heat.\u00a0 Place in Refrigerator for 2 hours prior to serving to allow flavors to marry. Overnight is better. this recipe will serve at least 20 people. This is a great recipe for a pot luck BBQ.
