Stuffed Burgers with Hash Browns
There are few combos in this world that make me happy. A sweet-ass Killer Instinct combo? Yeah, they rule. Combo pretzel snacks? No thanks. But, when the classic combo of beef and potato come together, it’s like Sabrewolfe laying a massive 20-hit smack down on those crappy cheese pizza flavored bites. Enter the stuffed burger, filled with a delicious blend of Mexican cheeses, served on a portugese roll. Sam hand crafted the patties and grilled on the cast-iron skillet to a perfect sear. The cheese melted throughout the center, so rather having a molten lava explosion melting my soft palate, its nicely distributed across each bite.
Sam diced up a few russet potatoes, salt and peppered them, and threw them into a 400 degree oven on a cookie sheet. Honestly, it didn’t matter what form it came in. A burger needs some starch to bring it all together. But these potatoes were cooked perfectly. The heat from the pan gave each spud a nice crust, and finished smoothly upon chew. There was no greasy oily taste to detract from the creamy taste. Otherwise, a great American combo classic that Fulgore would approve of. Now, I’m off to buy a Super Nintendo system to get this Killer Instinct kick out of my system.
