Well, today was a day of hamburger making. I decided that it was a good day to knock out my recipe for Savory Italian Burgers, and to spark up the smoker and put up a few dozen smoked burger patties in the freezer.
Fall has arrived it seems, quite suddenly at that, and being in the interior of BC my smoking season will come to an end before too much longer. As a result, I have been running a bunch of meat thru the smoker the last little while and putting the product in the freezer so that thru the winter we can still get a smoky taste of summer.
At the end of the day, I have ended up with 4 dozen smoked burger patties, a dozen smoked Italian Sausage and a hell of a messy smoker. Over the winter, I will do up another couple of batches of the burger, but it will go to towards pan grilled burgers, or using the meat in pasta sauce or other hearty winter eats.
I hope everyone is having a great Labour Day long weekend!
