Missed the beans tonight but had asparagus on the side but never photo’d it. I used pear and plum for smoke - she didn’t care for the smoke but burgers were good.

Tonight was IBP 80/20 burgers on the grill. These are my go-to burgers now.

I did burgers and dogs over the coals with plum wood for smoke. It was all good and Amelia got a burger to take for her school lunch tomorrow.

The Buffalo 
Burgers were mixed with rosemary, thyme, red pepper, salt, pepper, and olive oil. The veg was oven fried Brussels sprouts mixed with salt pepper and balsamic vinegar, crispy fried shallots, all’s Whole 30 recipe. The acorn just had a bit of clarified butter. There was enough leftover for tomorrow night. Beef would have been just as good.

It was tasty and with the olive oil mixed in the burgers didn’t stick to the grill. Also I stayed grill with avocado oil but flared up pretty good.

Mother’s Day 2026…. Today was my mother’s birthday. She would have been 105 years old.
I grilled Safeway 93% lean burger topped with Tillamook sharp cheddar cheese, Vidalia onion, hot house tomato, Kosher Dill sandwich pickle. I used lump charcoal and a large piece of cherry wood for smoke. The sides were potato salad, baked beans, and deviled eggs. I liked the cheese cake, she didn’t.

The burgers tonight were bulk Omaha Steak burgers done with lump charcoal and plum for smoke. The croissant made a good burger bun, and with Walla Walla sweet onion, tomato, and brown and red sauce. The chips were Freedom’s Choice sea salt and vinegar.
