Cheeseburger In Paradise
« Reply #-1 on: March 06, 2012, 10:03:01 PM »
In honor of the Jimmy Buffett concert this Saturday in San Diego, I decided to make Cheeseburgers.  They were smoked with oak and topped with American cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, fried onions, pickle chips, and Heinz 57 sauce.  Here's what they looked like when they were all done.





They were juicy and delicious.

I am going to the San Diego concert.  I'll be tailgating in the parking lot -- shrimp, kielbasa, cheeseburgers and maybe even a beer or two and then off to the show.

... tailgating in the parking lot...

For some unfathomable reason, the local authorities are carefully monitoring tailgating activities in the parking lot at the concert venue (like they don't have real criminals to go after) so our parties are fairly subdued these days.  We're also no longer allowed to bring coolers into the concert (Jimmy wants his override from the concessions).  I still manage to have a travel mug with a cooler of Guinness and some prepared pupus (appetizers) in the trunk for the parking lot and a few minis of rum or vodka for the concert.  Gotta maintain my strength.

... after 3 pm anyway

As they say, "It's 3 o'clock somewhere."

Great looking burgers. I have been a Jimmy Buffett fan since the early 70's and saw him play at the FloraBama once back before he got so huge. I went to one of his concerts and while I really enjoy his mucic I probably won't make another concert, you can't enjoy the music for the wierdness around.  50,000 people singing "let's all get drunk and screw" off key is not all that fun. I will continue to listen to him out on my deck with a margarita though.

There's no Los Angeles show scheduled as of now.  San Jose and San Diego are the two California shows.

Just got back from the concert at the Waikiki Shell - good fun as always.  I was going to take a bunch of pictures to post but unfortunately only got the one...
