A July 4th Tradition: The Bluesiana Burger

The Fourth of July holiday is my favorite family holiday: no last-minute dash for flowers, no arduous trek to the mall for gifts, not even a holiday card.  It’s just a leisurely American celebration of family and freedom.  And it’s the perfect day to fire up the grill. I’ve always had a hunger for hamburgers…

This creative, open-face sandwich is piled high with flavor.

Pass the sauce and start soppin’ up this delicious Pulled Pork Sandwich on Sweet…

September 3, 2018 by George Graham 2 Comments

Wagyu Beef Slider on Brioche with Jalapeño Pimento Cheese

Presented ceremoniously on a brioche bun, my Wagyu Beef Slider on Brioche with Jalapeño Pimento Cheese combines the best of hybrid Japanese beef with the down-home comfort of pimento cheese–a contrast of rich new flavors with more familiar tastes. The first time I tasted Kobe beef was at the flagship Matsuhisa in Beverly Hills, CA,…

Frostop and The Lot-O-Burger

Frostop and The Lot-O-Burger

Fresh hand-pressed beef griddled on the flat-top is dressed to impress on a sesame seed bun; it’s my all-time favorite fast-food burger—the Lot-O-Burger, my teenage years between two slices of bread. High school reunions come at you fast. They come in 10s and 20s and 30s as capsuled packets of time that shine light like…

Kitchen Inspiration: Fresh Summer Corn Gets a Creative Sandwich Makeover

With one bite into the crackling crisp crust of this Griddled Corn Panini, you realize that sweet summer corn is for much more than the usual vegetable side-dish recipe.

Beer-Braised Smoked Sausage Po’Boy with Griddled Vidalia Onions and Sauce Duo

Smoked sausage is a familiar food item throughout Acadiana, and not a festival goes on without a booth serving up a smoked sausage po’boy. This Cajun recipe doesn’t get any simpler and don’t look for me to complicate it…much. First, the basics: My bread is classic–a soft po’boy bun from Evangeline Maid Bread in Lafayette….
