'B&E' Bacon BBQ Challenge

[RyJ Smoker]

So my buddy and I thought we'd make up our own burger challenge at my house, last Saturday!

Here's a breakdown of what I came up with:

Burger:

- Two 1/2 lb hamburger patties
- 8 strips of 'thick-cut' bacon
- 4 slices of cheese
- TONS of fried onions
- Honey BBQ sauce

Burger was complimented by:

- 1 lb steak fries
- Cheese sauce
- Green onions


Now for the pix! The last one is of my buddy, Joe, prior to digging in












Will be doing double-time on the treadmill, this week

[javajunkie]

WOW! that makes fat kids smile! o)

 

[RyJ Smoker]

Yeah, neither of us were able to finish it! I'd like to create 4 or 5 more different burger challenges for my friends and I to have fun!

It was a great day

Yup that looks tastey........I may try to duplicate that!!!!

 

[RyJ Smoker]

Just brainstorming here, but I think the next one will consist of the following:

- 2 grilled cheeses filled w/sharp cheddar and grilled jalapeno slices to replace a bun
- 1/2lb hamburger
- 1 jalapeno-cheddar smoked sausage cut in half, lengthwise
- Cream cheese
- Fried onions

I give myself a cheat-meal of THIS caliber once/month, so like the ole saying goes.....go big or go home

I'm telling you.....the honey BBQ sauce MADE the burger. I've never put that on a burger before.

Sounds like a similar concept to the Bacon Cheeseburger Fatty Melt ...

^^^ I haven't tried this concoction of bread, meats and cheese yet ... but intend to!

Most importantly....

Who won??

 

[RyJ Smoker]

Neither of us finished. I got through maybe 2/3 of the burger and 1/4 of the fries.

Presentation is 9/10 of the law, isn't it?? Or is that something else...?

LOL, thanks!
