Star-Spangled Cheeseburgers

2011-06-22T16:32:00.000-07:00

You can't get much more patriotic than this when you transform all-American hamburgers into star-spangled cheeseburgers. Serve with old-fashioned potato salad and freshly-squeezed lemonade.

Star-Spangled Cheeseburgers

2 pounds ground beef 1/4 cup mayonnaise 1/4 cup honey mustard 8 slices American cheese 8 hamburger buns, split Romaine lettuce, tomato slices

Combine mayonnaise and mustard. Cut star shapes from cheese with cookie cutter.
Lightly shape ground beef into eight 1/2-inch thick patties. Place patties on grid over medium, ash-covered coals. Grill, uncovered, 11 to 13 minutes to medium (160°F or 70°C) doneness, until not pink in center and juices show no pink color, turning occasionally. Season with salt and pepper after turning. About 1 minute before burgers are done, top with cheese stars.
Serve in buns with sauce, lettuce and tomato.

Makes 8 servings.

Southern Fried Barbecue Chicken

2011-06-22T16:30:00.001-07:00

Here's a recipe that gives an old favorite a new twist! Developed by PBS' “Barbecue America”, host Rick Browne.

Southern Fried Barbecue Chicken

4 large eggs
1/2 cup water
3/4 cup milk
3 tablespoons garlic salt
3 tablespoons black pepper
5 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon mesquite seasoning
2 to 3 cups oil for frying, or as needed
1 (4-pound) chicken, cut into pieces
Nonstick cooking spray
1 cup (8 ounces) favorite barbecue sauce

1 (22-ounce) can BUSH'S® Bourbon and Brown Sugar Grillin' Beans™ for accompaniment

In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, water, milk, 2 tablespoons of garlic salt and 2 tablespoons of pepper until smooth.
In a large flat pan stir together the flour, remaining tablespoons of garlic salt, pepper, onion powder and mesquite seasoning.
Fill a large heavy skillet or wok halfway full with oil and heat over medium-high heat to 365°F on the barbecue grill or side burner. Use tongs to dip each chicken piece into the egg mixture, then into the flour mixture, back into the egg mixture and back into the flour mixture again. Set on a platter until all pieces are coated.
Cook the chicken in batches, do not overcrowd the skillet. Brown on each side.
Coat a large baking dish generously with nonstick cooking spray then arrange the fried chicken pieces in the pan. Pour the barbecue sauce over the chicken.
Bake in the oven at 365°F (185°C) for 10 to 15 minutes in the barbecue sauce, until the sauce has bubbled and caramelized and a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the chicken breast has reached an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
Serve with BUSH'S® Bourbon and Brown Sugar Grillin' Beans™.

Serves 4 to 5.

Better Food Pyramid Mediterranean Diet

2009-03-19T17:09:00.000-07:00

Dietary data from those parts of the Mediterranean region that in the recent past enjoyed the lowest recorded rates of chronic diseases and the highest adult life expectancy show a pattern like the one illustrated in the list below. The healthfulness of this pattern is corroborated by epidemiological and experimental nutrition research. The average amounts given are in most cases intentionally nonspecific, since variation is known to have been considerable within this pattern.
