Seriously silly Burger

Seriously silly Burger

Both Sue and I have done a stint at McBurger King in the past. They don’t do burgers like this!

When I was scouting the yellow sticker fridge a couple of evening ago I came home with Blue Cheese and Beef mince. We already had a small Gluten free Sour-dough loaf and salad which were free as they were well past their ‘End of Live’ date and were heading for composting.

All the ingredients for a ‘Lock-Down’ burger to both entertain us playing in the kitchen together and provide a cracking meal. Well actually two meals as we’ll be eating the remaining half today!

There’s not a lot of point typing up a recipe for this creation as it’s unlikely we’ll ever perfectly replicate it. But the unusual ingredient was the Blue Cheese and Mushroom sauce Sue created. Ousing Cheesy mushroomy goodness!

Perhaps not a burger to try to eat with dignity in public – But there’s only us and the cat here to see our greasy chops!

Pulled Pork recipe, Eat well on Universal Credit

Originally an American invention to use the front parts of a Pig which we usually make into Sausages. Pulled Pork is a great way to use the ver cheapest cuts. This joint was less that £2. Yes it is a bit of boneless shoulder and yes it would heve been touch as old boots! But not this way.
 
Note:-  Sue is not keen on BBQ sauce so I used a simple gravy at the end of the process to moisten the meat.
 
Ingredients:-
 
Pork Shoulder cut. Bone in or out, it's down to what is available.
Stock, beef, chicken or if you have your own any base stock will work.
Sale & Pepper.
Oil.
 
Method:-
 
(1) Don't start this expecting to eat in less than 3 hours!.
(2) Turn the oven up to 200c or so.
(3) If using Stock Cube mix with boiling water stir well and set aside.
(4) Mix the Salt and Pepper with the Oil and rub the meat well.
(5) Add the Stock to an oven proof dish.
(6) Place the joint in the dish and put in the oven on a very high heat for the first 20 minutes.
(7) Lower the heat to 140c and cover with foil.
(8) Go away, take the kids out. Clean the loo. Do whatever will distract you from the cooking smells for at the very least 2 ½ hours.
(9) When the meat is really over cooked and very tender take it out and on a board run two forks against each other to shred the meat.
(10) Add Gravy or BBQ sauce and stir well.
(11) Re-heat in a pan if requited.
 
Serve in a Yorkshire Pudding with vegetables of your choice.
