So delicious and the brioche buns make it!
I made these at work today, we actually make a lot of these. One of our most popular appetizers! Homemade, fresh baked brioche buns, beef hamburgers glazed with bbq sauce, cheddar, mayo and grainy mustard and garnished with a gherkin or whatever else I can find.
Brioche can be a bit of work to make, but it’s truly worth it for these little guys. Really any fresh baked bread will do, the key is fresh baked!
Brioche is also great because it freezes very well in it’s dough form, so if you want you can make this ahead and freeze it for any appetizer emergencies!

So. delicious!
Now, beef dip is best If you’ve made a gorgeous medium rare roast, and have sliced it paper thin with a meat slicer. But I don’t have these privileges. (I did when I worked in catering, and oh man. It was AWESOMEE!)
But this way is awesome too, with a ton of flavour, and ready in like 30 mins tops.

Oh baby!
There’s this brand we sell, called “Sister’s Secret”. They make, well MADE, different sauces. People have always raved about how amazing it was. And now, unfortunately, they have gone out of business. We’ve acquired the last of the bottles to sell, and I wanted to try it before it was gone forever.

It’s BBQ season! Or has been for a while and I’ve been missing out.

MEAT!
We finally went and had a little bbq at my parents place. We can’t have a bbq on our apt porch, so we make plans to use theirs whenever we can!
I gave my mother a pack of ribs the night before (she wanted to boil them and get them ready before we came over), and pleaded for some steak. It’s been a while since I’ve had a good steak.
I was planning on making some green peppercorn sauce for the steaks, but when I got there my mother had some baby potatoes boiled, so I decided to make use of them.
