Canada Day Cook

Options
Celebrated Canada Day and my step-son's 24th birthday this evening. Just a small group of six. Did some homemade guacamole, ABT's, brisket burger sliders, homemade Italian sausage, baked beans and corn on the cob. For the ABT's I did three stuffed with Italian sausage and three stuffed with guacamole. The guacamole ones were fantastic!

Cored and seeded the jalapenos


Stuffed them


Wrapped them


Cooked them


Ate them


Homemade guacamole


Sliders

Well, "spa-Peggy" is kind of like spaghetti. I'm not sure what Peggy does different, if anything. But it's the one dish she's kind of made her own.

    The greatest barrier against all wisdom, the stronghold against knowledge itself, is the single thought, in ones mind, that they already have it all figured out.

    Canada Day is like the 4th of July without the war.

    Thats a lot of burgers, looks great!  I like the idea of stuffing the peppers from the end instead of cutting them in half, will try that next time!

    Yeah, it makes them much easier to handle and less cheese run out when cooked.

    I actually got the idea for the guacamole stuffing from having fried guacamole at the Texas State Fair several years ago. They'll fry just about anything down there and, frankly, I was underwhelmed with the fried guacamole.

    As a stuffer for the ABT's, though, it was fantastic. I will definitely do it again.

    Thanks! I think that was just an Alexander Keith's Red Ale.
