For 4th of July I made hamburgers with corn and snap peas. There is nothing better than a big ole hamburger to celebrate with on the 4th. I love lots of taste so I added pepper jack cheese with onions and red peppers to top it all off.

A good hamburger is one of my all time favorites. I wanted something tasty and real with this hamburger so I decieded to make my own ground beef. To start out with I picked up two rib eye steaks. I don’t have a meat grinder but I do have a food processor. I read online that steaks will work better in the food processor if they are partially frozen. After cutting off the steak bone I put the steaks in the freezer for about 2 hours. Once they were partially frozen I removed from the freezer and cut up into smaller squares. They ground up amazingly fast in the food processor. There you have it — gound beef. Season with a liberal amount of salt. I also seasoned with ground black pepper and ground rosemary.

To cook — It’s the grill man !

After grilling the burger — I topped with pepper jack cheese, sauteed yellow onions and sauteed red peppers.

To serve — I used kaiser rolls ( just make sure your hamburger is big enough) and BBQ sauce.

Side dishes — Snap peas grilled in oil and salted. Grilled corn seasoned with paprika, salt, and black pepper.
