The All American Burger and Fries
A day well spent,
a morning annoying our children, spend lunch cleaning an old black powder muzzleloader that I inherited and then helping cooking an awesome dinner for the family.
The Menu
Loaded Bacon Cheeseburgers and Homemade Fries
The Fries
Scrub down several large baking potatoes
Julienne into 1/4"-1/2" fries
Deep fry at 375° till just golden, lift basket, let oil reheat and then finish to crisp
Salt/season well while still dripping oil
Serve HOT!

Loaded Bacon Cheeseburgers
5lbs of prime 80/20 Chuck divided eight ways, .62lb patties
Lightly handled into patties and nicely seasoned with Cajun spice, black pepper and salt
Grilled over high heat for a nice sear
Add cheese and get a nice melt
My tips for great burgers
Do not over handle the meat and do not mix spices into it
Season the unformed chunk of chuck and then gently form the patty
Leave them thick and form a deep divot in the center, I use my thumb, this divot keeps them from shrinking up
Sear them well, this is beef, I cook to medium-medium well

Looks great man... I learned the hole in the middle trick by a guest at the hunting camp several years ago cooking deer burgers. No matter how flat you make the patty's they will recede and get thick, but if you give it a doughnut hole the meat won't swell up.

Alton Brown bakes his potatoes the day before, then he slices them and fries them. Just sayin'.
