\"Roasted<\/p>\n

Ah, the humble burger.<\/p>\n

Sometimes I get so caught up in kitchen experiments that I forget to just cook a damn burger once in a while.<\/p>\n

We have a red-meat-intolerant hubby in the house though, so burgers here are generally made from alternative meat sources.<\/p>\n

And since a plain chicken, pork or turkey patty can\u2019t even pretend to compare to beef, I dress them up a little.<\/p>\n

\"roasted<\/p>\n

Sometimes a lot.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

It starts with broiling some peppers. Really blacken the crap out of \u2019em.<\/p>\n

The smoky flavor this creates will make you forget all about grilling.<\/p>\n

They\u2019ll also keep the turkey from drying out. A dry turkey burger will make you so sad. Believe me.<\/p>\n

\"pickling<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re feeling adventurous, you can also make an exciting topping or two.<\/p>\n

This time I made one of my favorite instant meal boosters of late: a quick pickle.<\/p>\n

Toasted spices, some salt and sugar heat up with vinegar and get poured over their soon-to-be delicious victim.<\/p>\n

\"red<\/p>\n

I used red onions, but you could apply the same technique to basically anything you want to pickle. And it only takes 20 minutes! Woop!<\/p>\n

\"Roasted<\/p>\n

Apparently I was very excited about this burger, because I also made a Lemon Rosemary Mayo.<\/p>\n

Homemade toppings are totally optional, but quite delicious!<\/p>\n
