Burgers were good enough last week that the kids begged me to make them again. I lightly blended 3lbs ground beef (20% fat) with 1/4C water and 2 tsp of Worcestershire. Shaped into 1/2lb patties and into the fridge for an hour or so. In a foil pan, make a baste of: 1 stick unsalted butter 4...

Per Sparky's request, here it is (Sparky, have not named the grills yet. I'll enlist the kids to help and let you know). I was anxious to get to some pulled pork and figured it would take overnight so was getting prepped for that. Big Poppa called to check in and said - "Go get some chickens...
