Ian was charged with a tough assignment...the very first meal for our blog. However, after enjoying the absolutely delicious "Meaty Surprise," Trevor and Brian were flabbergasted as their third roommate set the highest of standards.
When Ian arrived with two Safeway bags full of a smörgåsbord of ingredients, Brian was a bit apprehensive. However, after the kitchen started to smell a little like heaven, the apprehension quickly exited the condominium. Ian began his preparation by mixing a raw egg with hamburger meat, "to keep it all together." He then molded six big, thin patties and set them aside. Brian acted as his sous chef and chopped onions, fresh feta cheese and sundried tomatoes. As he diced the flavor-filled ingredients, Brian began to wonder what was in store. Then, as Ian began loading chopped feta and sundried tomatoes between two of the thin patties, it became clear...this was gonna be a great meal.
The burgers were cooked in a pan...but they were not alone. Freshly cut onions joined the red meat in a bath of steaming hot barbecue sauce.
After the meat was cooked to perfection...it was chow time. Ian's first meal was relatively inexpensive, tasted like it was from a popular downtown eatery, took around 25 minutes to prepare, and was gone in about 2 minutes of pure satisfaction.
The ease of this meal received 5 out of 10 Spatulas (1=Simple; 10=Daaaaammmnnn)
Ingredients:
- Fresh feta cheese
- Sundried tomatoes
- Lean hamburger meat
- One white onion
- Onion buns (a must!)

This blog seems really cool; leave it to my fellow alums.
If you guys like burgers and you want to give them a gourmet twist, I have one of my own recipes where you use beef and lamb and then serve the burgers on English muffins with a caper remoulade. I've gotten pretty good feedback about it.
Nice work though--I particularly enjoyed the commentary.
