Hoagies and Grinders....

To this day I never had any clue what a Grinder was.

1 green pepper, seeded and cut into rings

1 tomato, thinly sliced

1 clove garlic, peeled and minced

2 tablespoons olive oil

1/4 of very thinly sliced red onion

1/2 pound ham, thinly sliced

1 14 ounce loaf French bread, split lengthwise

4 ounces thinly sliced provolone

Mix garlic with oil, salt and pepper to taste. Layer ham, tomatoes, onion and green pepper on bottom half of French bread. Drizzle oil mixture over the top, then add cheese. Cover with top of bread. Cut into fourths, wrap in foil and heat in a 350F oven for about 10 minutes or until heated through.

When do we start Fluff?

Same thing we call a sub. It's just a regional thing...

That would be a road trip I would enjoy!

This one piqued my interest.

Pepper Bacon Burgers

1 beaten egg

1/4 cup fine dry bread crumbs

6 slices crisp cooked bacon, crumbled

4 to 6 fresh serrano or 2 to 3 jalapeno peppers, seeded and finely chopped*

2 tablespoons milk

1 pound lean ground beef

1 fresh Anaheim or mild green chili pepper, seeded and cut into rings

1 small onion, thinly sliced and separated into rings

2 tablespoons margarine or butter

4 lettuce leaves

4 kaiser rolls or hamburger buns, split and toasted

In a large mixing bowl stir together egg, bread crumbs, bacon, serrano or jalapeno peppers and milk. Add ground beef and mix well. Shape meat into four 3/4 inch thick patties. Grill patties, on an uncovered grill, directly over medium coals for 15 to 18 minutes or until an instant read thermometer inserted in side of patty registers 160F, turning once. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan or skillet cook the Anaheim or mild green chili pepper and onion in margarine or butter about 10 minutes or until onion is tender. Serve burgers on lettuce lined buns. Top burgers with pepper onion mixture. Makes 4 servings.

*Note: Because hot chili peppers contain volatile oils that can burn your eyes, lips and skin, avoid direct contact with them as much as possible. When working with chili peppers, cover your hands with plastic bags or wear plastic or rubber gloves. Be sure to wash your hands well with soap and water before touching your eyes or face.
