Busy week of making Walton’s Sweet and Tender Jerky and Mandarin Teriyaki snack sticks. In the past couple weeks have made over 80 lbs. of jerky.

Cut up pepperoni and bacon bits and mix with ground beef and pork, as well as Walton’s Ultimate Steak and Roast Rub.


Form into patties and make a hole to add pepperjack cheese.


Seal the hole and form full patty.

Add pepperoni to top of burger and grill in pan on the stovetop, cook until medium and add pepperjack cheese to the top after flipping and reflipping.


Toast buns.

Serve and enjoy!!!

The staff at Butcher Butcher and Joe Hell made some changes to the Meatgistic’s Leather Apron and use them daily. The rivets and clasps were changed to some more durable hardware. Also, an x or y strap was added to help support the weight of the leather material.

“The meat cutters wear it and love it for the look and durability. They get many compliments from the customers … Overall, the guys love it but with a few tweaks it could be amazing.” quote from Joe Hell .

This story kind of hit home for me. After losing about all of my possessions in a tornado that destroyed my home in July 2016, it took a lot of help from family and neighbors to get back on my feet. I remember the town was basically closed down. I could not get to my home and eventually drove a half hour to the nearest town just to get a cheeseburger from McDonalds and some clean clothes from Walmart. The victims of these natural disasters are in shock, not sure what their next move is, and are processing the loss of loved ones, their homes, and possessions. The last thing they need to worry about is where to get a good meal. Kudos to this man for his kind actions.

Another by chance lunch at Walton’s. We started the day by making Maple Bacon Snack Sticks. With the leftover meat I made patties and added a blueberry bagel I had brought for lunch. The bagel was perfect for the maple bacon pork burger. I didn’t even use any dressing or sauce and it was great!

Grilled Honey BBQ Chicken, slider, homemade potatoes and raisin salad. Sunday night dinner.

Thanks to Walton’s I made something delicious out of my $5 lunch budget for today. I boiled Dollar Tree potstickers and made Ramen noodles (threw away the seasoning packet). After boiling the potstickers I then put them in the toaster oven. I added Excalibur Mandarin Teriyaki Marinade and Smoke Flavored Sea Salt. Kind of turned very little into something that was tasty.

Brined cornish game hens with stuffing, mash potatoes and gravy, cooked carrots and cornbread casserole.

This recipe is called the first things I could find in the kitchen in a hurry this morning because I was running late. Leftover cornish game hen and cheddar and broccoli noodle side seasoned with Excalibur Southwest Mesquite Rub and Terrapin Ridge Farms Creamy Italian White Balsamic Dressing.

The Steakhouse jalapeno turkey burger was my lunch today. Marinaded turkey burger with Walton’s Authentic Steakhouse Marinade, Seasoned with Excalibur’s Better Burger Seasoning and topped with french fries and Terrapin Ridge Farms Hoppin’ Jalapeno Dip.

Grilled chicken sandwich marinated in Excalibur Lemon Pepper Garlic Sauce. Also made some chicken bites marinated in Excalibur Chipolte Habanero Sauce.

Light snow here in Wichita but things are getting hot with this Gigawatt Hot with Ghost Pepper High Temp Cheese leftover snack stick meat burger on whole wheat toasted bun!!! A little warm.

Ingredients

Pork
Wasabi Powder
Terrapin Ridge Farms Hot Wasabi Garnishing Squeeze
Excalibur Horseradish Seasoning

Utensils Needed

Meat Grinder
Sausage Stuffer
Grill/Smoker or Oven

Instructions

Follow the normal process for making a bratwurst but add Excalibur Horseradish Seasoning, wasabi powder (one teaspoon per pound of meat) and the Terrapin Ridge Hot Wasabi Garnishing Squeeze to the meat and mix thoroughly before stuffing.

Disaster rating: 1-10 where 10 is the worst

“This was not a disaster at all!!!” said Jonathon. This would be a 1 on the scale because Jonathon and Austin actually liked it. If you are a fan of horseradish this is a brat flavor you should try!!!
