It is that time of year when you find yourself outside cooking more and more. The sun is taking its time going down and you can enjoy a few more hours of sunlight.
I totally enjoy getting outside to cook, The taste of grilled foods can’t be beat. Keeping my house cool is an added bonus. Not to mention if you plan it right the clean up is minimal.
#burgermonth is the brain child of Kita Roberts of Girl Carnivore. There will be 31 days of burger deliciousness. Each day a different blogger will showcase what they have created.
Oh, did I mention there is a major giveaway? Each day a new blogger will bring you another chance to win.
Today I stuffed my burger. I put the blue cheese and bacon on the inside of the burger. The blue cheese gave it a bit of tang while the bacon added even more juiciness to the burger.
I hope this inspires you this whole month of July to grill more and make your own creation.
A huge thanks to all of the fun bloggers who were just as inspired by a month of burgers as I was and the awesome companies that have donated prizes to #burgermonth , El Diablo Hot & Spicy Mustard, FireWire Grilling Skewers, Hamilton Beach, KitchenIQ, The Spice House, and Wisconsin Cheese
