Blane's B'day dinner review. Due 7/14/14 - losblanos1 - 06-20-2014

It was really a tough choice of recipes to choose from, but I decided to keep it simple. From issue 106.

Asian Pork Burgers
with red cabbage slaw

For an unmatched dining experience,
try this pork burger with a tasty slaw
and spicy Sriracha mayonnaise.

Makes 4 burgers
Total time: 40 minutes

COMBINE:
2 cups shredded red cabbage
1 Tbsp. rice vinegar
2 tsp. each minced fresh chives
and cilantro
1/2 tsp. each sugar and
kosher salt

WHISK:
1/2 cup mayonnaise
3–4 Tbsp. Sriracha sauce

PULSE:
11/2 lb. boneless, center-cut pork
chops, trimmed and cubed
1 Tbsp. low-sodium soy sauce
2 tsp. each minced fresh ginger
and garlic
4 sesame seed hamburger
buns
1 cup thinly sliced cucumbers

Preheat grill to medium-high.

Combine cabbage, vinegar, chives,
cilantro, sugar, and salt.

Whisk together mayonnaise
and Sriracha.

Pulse pork in two batches in a food
processor until coarsely ground;
mix in soy sauce, ginger, and garlic.

Divide pork into four 5–6-oz.
portions. Use a fork to shape pork
into 4-inch-diameter patties; coat
both sides with nonstick spray.

Grill patties, covered, 3 minutes.
Flip patties and grill until an instant read
thermometer inserted into
centers registers 155°, 3–5 minutes
more; transfer to a plate, tent with
foil, and let rest 3–4 minutes. Grill
buns until toasted, 1 minute.

Serve burgers on buns with
cucumbers, red cabbage slaw,
and Sriracha mayonnaise.

I'm in! This sounds wonderful! Nice pick, Blane!

That does sound delicious! I'm in, too, but my review may be late...we'll be in Tahoe that week with very limited internet access.

I will make this for sure - maybe even next week. I got the new issue today and was a little underwhelmed but this is one of about 4 recipes that caught my eye.

The whole local sriacha fiasco has been in the news so much and I'm always glad to support a hard working bunch of people who the gubmint has tried to shut down. LOL.

Boy, are we in!


Re: Blane's B'day dinner review. Due 7/14/14 - DFen911 - 06-20-2014

We are so in!

This sounds great. Nice pick, Blane! We'll make this next week.

Trixxee, whatever happened with the sriracha factory? Last we heard, they did shut it down. Did that not happen? I was so worried that I immediately went to Asia foods and bought up several bottles.


Re: Blane's B'day dinner review. Due 7/14/14 - cjs - 06-21-2014

I did, too.


Re: Blane's B'day dinner review. Due 7/14/14 - Trixxee - 06-21-2014

No, they didn't shut it down. Well, it might have been shut down for a short time but it actually didn't have anything to do with the smell - something to do with the FDA. But that was quite a few months ago. I think they are up and running and trying to work everything out with the idiots at the city. Here's a fairly recent article.

Thanks Trixxee. Glad they all worked it out.
