I felt like having a super messy burger. And this fit the bill. Adding chopped bacon and gouda cheese to the patties, piling on sautéed bacon onions and mushrooms, and topping with deli mustard beer cheese sauce French fried onions and spicy deli pickles. This is like having your own gastro pub.

cooking is a passion of mine. I started when I was very young and I had to drag a milk crate around to see over the counter. taught by a career cook (my grandmother ). I have always tried to push the boundaries of conventional cooking. I prefer cooking wild game. when I can get my hands on it, but fish is more readily available for me. I raise and butcher most of the livestock that I use for my conventional recipes. I hope everyone can find a few recipes they like in my list.
