Since I never got out of my flannel jammies yesterday I figured today I would fight the low temps and cook something on the MAK.
Tonight it was a simple burger and fries night. I cooked some chicken breasts too to use later. One breast got some chili EVOO and a good dusting of soileaus..this will be for tomorrow's lunch at work.
The rest of the breasts were au naturale..these will be used for gumbo and some chicken salad later in the week. I'm trying to keep the salt intake low so I didn't season them. The seasoning I'm using later will take care of that.
Time to prep some burgers. Made some patties and dusted them with big poppa smokers double secret steak rub.
Got some veggies ready for the burgers and cut some hunks of cheese off the block.
With the low temps the MAK was struggling to reach 400.. I placed a welding blanket over the top and the temps easily hit 450 with outside temps at 25 and dropping.
Time to flip the chicken and put the burgers on. I cooked the fries in the house oven tonight.
I made a burger dressing out of miracle whip and vicious mango hot sauce. A little tangy sweet heat for my burger!
