Hamburgers and Grilled Corn on the Cob

For the 4th of July we decided to have a bit of a cheat day--if you would like to call it that. We indulged with cheese (yum) and wheat...and gluten...oh and corn on the cob! Shame, shame. Poor Jonathan will probably be feeling the consequences of this meal tonight and days to come.

Hamburgers

Ingredients:

* Ground Beef
* Blue Cheese Crumbles
* Garlic Salt
* Pepper
* Tomatoes, sliced
* Lettuce
* Sharp Cheddar Cheese
* Mayo, Mustard, Ketchup
* Clausen Sliced Pickles
* Hamburger Buns


Directions:

1. In a large bowl combine ground beef, blue cheese crumbles, and your desired amount of garlic salt and pepper.
2. Mix well and make patties. (We like to make them kind of large because they tend to shrink on the grill and we like the patty to at least cover the bun in the end).
3. Place made patties on wax paper on a cookie sheet and layer as necessary.
4. Grill to desired done-ness.
5. Prepare other toppings.
6. Build your burger and enjoy!


We ate our burgers with some fresh fruit and grilled corn on the cob. For the corn we just husked it, wrapped it in foil, and then placed them on the heated grill, rotating occasionally for even cooking. When it is finished it is so tasty it doesn't even need butter and salt! (Of course, some added butter and salt anyway...) ;)
