This slider flight is shareable, but you might not want to share it. Each come full of flavor and the variety will feed even the pickiest of eaters (OK, our little picky eater only ate the fries and shrimp patty on the bun). But the best thing is that you can have all of the ingredients on a buffet line and allow your family/guests to assemble their own burger. It's fun and everyone gets a custom meal!  Which slider do you want to try? Tell us in the comments.  PEPPER BOMB SLIDER (1 of 3)   INGREDIENTS 2 LB - BEEF (we used 73% beef, rest fat) 1 Head - Lettuce 1 Whole - Tomato 1 Whole - Red Onion 1 Whole - Avocado   10-12 - Slider Buns 10-12 Slices - Cheese 4 Tbsp - Laab Seasoning 1 Tbsp - Black Pepper 2 Tsp - Salt (to taste) 1 Tbsp - Grated Garlic 3 Tbsp - Minced Lemongrass Stalks 4 Tbsp - Minced Thai Pepper 1/2 Cup - Chopped Cilantro 1/2 Cup - Chopped Green Onions 1 Cup - Chopped Tomato 1/2 Tbsp - Minced Garlic INSTRUCTIONS In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, ...

PHO: BEEF RICE NOODLE SOUP FOR DAYS!

Image
  In our home, pho is made once and enjoyed for 2 or 3 days. That’s probably why it takes 3 hours minimum to make. Pho is a comfort food for many in our household and between the fresh herbs and the yummy broth, no other soup can compare. Pho is very versatile–you can substitute ingredients like we did with our recipe but note that as you replace ingredients that authentic flavor will also be altered. For example, we opted-out of the thin sliced beef today because our local shop didn’t have any. Our substitute, Beef Shank, was just as tasty but it’s not as authentic. INGREDIENTS 8-10 lbs. beef (oxtail, flank, and/or beef ribs) 3 lbs - Beef meatballs 1 lb - Beef tripe 1 - Vietnamese pork meatloaf 1 - Onion 1 Bulb - Garlic Pho Dry Spices (https://amzn.to/3NhFS8O) 1-2 Sticks - Cinnamon 4 - 5 Whole - Star anise 2 Tbsp - Clove 4 Tbsp - Fennel seed 2 Tbsp - Coriander seed 1 cup - Beef pho mix (https://amzn.to/3LdNxDq) ½ cup - Spicy noodle soup powder (https://amzn.to/3Mv2H93) Salt– add t...
