PERFECT PULLED PORK SANDWICH

Welcome to Foodie Friday!

I'm always trying to find recipes that require little preparation. This recipe is a winner!

While hubby and I were shopping at Costco we ran across a terrific sale on pork loin. The sizes of the loins were quite large, but the price per pound was too good to pass up. I was able to cut the loin into 3 nice size roasts.

In today's blog I am using one of the roasts for a 3-Ingredient Pulled Pork recipe. The recipe is quite simple because the pork is cooked in a slow cooker with only two other ingredients, root beer and BBQ sauce.

First place the pork in the crock pot.

Add 1 oz. of root beer.

Cover and cook on low for 6 hours or until the pork shreds easily with a fork. After pork has cooked, drain and discard the root beer. Shred the pork and place it back in the slow cooker. Pour the BBQ sauce  (I used Sweet Baby Rays)  over the pork and stir to combine. 

 Serve or keep warm in a slow cooker until ready to serve.  Serve on buns.

This recipe is a great make ahead recipe for a party or a quick dinner. It's easy and delish!
It's a real winner!

THE BURGER OF ALL BURGERS!

Get your grills ready for the best burger treat you have ever had! These mini cheeseburgers will delight even those with the fussiest palates. Yes, they contain THREE types of cheese and other delicious ingredients...........

MINI BURGERS AND CHEESE

SPECIAL SAUCE

MINI THREE CHEESE BURGERS

Look at how beautiful they are. And remember they are MINI because we have to leave room for dessert!

The recipe was a huge hit at one of our Dinner Club parties. I just had to share the recipe with you, since it's time for many of us to use that grill for the first time since last Fall. What a wonderful smell permeating the party. YUM!

MINI THREE CHEESE BURGERS

• 2 lbs. ground round
• 4 Tbsp. minced onion
• 2 tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
• 2 tsp. Italian seasonings
• 1 tsp. salt
• 1/2 tsp. black pepper
• 6 oz. Brie chees (roll into 14 tsp. balls)
• 8 slices cheddar cheese
• 8 slices Gruyere cheese

Prepare mini burgers and put thumbprint in center. Grill. Add Brie ball, cheddar and Gruyere.

SPECIAL SAUCE

• 1 cup mayo
• 2 tbsp. fresh lemon juice
• 3 cloves smashed garlic
• 1/8 tsp. salt
• 1 tsp. paprika

Mix in food processor.

That's it-----you can make the burgers ahead and freeze them. Just add the cheese at

grilling time. The special sauce stays good in the frig just like mayo. DON'T FORGET TO PICK UP YOUR FAVORITE MINI BUNS!

I hope you enjoy these burgers as much as we do. Have a wonderful weekend!
