Meal No. 1479: Peanut Butter Bacon Burgers


If my count is correct, peanut butter bacon burgers have now been made at the Roediger House for the 21st time since their first appearance here around Thanksgiving 2010. Last Friday night, when these were made, it was by special request. Regular guests of the Roediger House know they can make a birthday meal request and I'll try to accommodate them, and this is what Mookie said he wanted.

I do dig the bacon braid/weave that I learned about in the last year or so:
