No need for condiments with these gems, just hunch over and do "da dip".

No need for condiments with these gems, just hunch over and do “da dip”. Italian Beef Hamburgers will bring a little Chicago to your table! 

I love Italian Beef sandwiches, second to a Philly Cheese Steak. This morning at some silly hour I was craving an Italian Beef sandwich. I’m still trying to figure that one out! Knowing that cooking a roast in a crock pot all day wasn’t an option for me (I would never eat the whole thing anyway and it takes too long for this instant gratification kinda gal) I decided to make make hamburgers instead.  These Italian Beef Hamburgers taste just like like the original except they are ready in no time and you even have “da dip” to go along with it! There is no need for condiments “da dip” is all you need. You can make regular size hamburgers if you wish but I’m more of a slider size gal so do what you like. Yep! I had a cheeseburger for breakfast and yes it was yum-me. The neighbors were laughing at me grilling burgers at 9 AM but a girl has to do whats she’s gotta do!

Had another busy week last week.. A real estate contract writing fool and my tennis team made it to the State finals! It’s always such a fun experience playing in districts and when you think that there are 300+ teams in the State and only twelve teams make it, it’s pretty darn cool! We got our skirts beat off though us but that’s OK, it was just fun playing with the gals! We also got a super special treat last week. Something that rarely happens in Colorado. A full fledged clam bake sans the sand and seaweed. Delicious nonetheless. I got to hang out with some of my favorite people, shovel lobsters, oysters, Ahi tuna and clams in my mouth. Funny, but that’s what I felt like I did! I’m proud of my three plates of food. I can’t remember the last time I did that!

Craving an Italian Beef sandwich but you don’ have all day. Here is a great alternative for burgers on the grill. Complete with “da dip”.

  • 1 1/2 pounds 80/20 ground beef
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp pepper
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 2 tbs Worcestershire sauce
  • [br][b]For “da dip”[/b][br]
  • 2 tbs butter
  • 2 tbs olive oil
  • 1 medium sized onion thinly sliced
  • 1 red or green pepper thinly sliced
  • 2-3 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tbs Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp pepper
  • 2 tsp Italian seasoning

Instructions
  1. In a large saute pan melt the butter and oil. Add the peppers, onions, garlic, salt, pepper, chili flake, and Italian seasoning. Cook for about 10 minutes until the veges are cooked through. Add the bay leaf, Worcestershire sauce and beef broth and simmer on medium heat until ready to serve.
  2. For the burgers, in a large bowl, add the meat, salt, pepper, Italian seasoning and Worcestershire sauce. Mix until well combined. Form your burger patties to you desired size and grill to your liking. Add cheese if desired as well.
  3. To assemble the burgers, on your burger buns place a patty and top with hot pepper and onion mixture. Pour the broth in a bowl and serve with the burgers.
Notes
I put the broth into individual bowls for serving. Then you can double dip to your hearts content!

Clambake

I felt like a ten year old at Thanksgiving. I went back for three rounds.

This never happens in CO. Flown in fresh that morning. I had an entire dinner of protein, just say no to potatoes and corn when you eat lobster and oysters a couple of times a year!

Elk

The boys were out in Evergreen the other night. These kids were huge. Seven or eight point elk.
