STARTER: Meat Doughnuts
|
|
|
These savory meat-filled doughnuts are somewhere between fluffy doughnuts, fried buns, and traditional Eastern European belyashi. Soft yeast dough surrounds a juicy meat filling, creating a crispy golden outside and tender center. They are perfect as a snack, lunch, or party food. The filling idea is adapted from a traditional meat doughnut recipe.

MAIN COURSE: Fish Burgers
|
|
|
The first fish burger to make it big—McDonald’s Filet-O-Fish—was created in 1962 by a Cincinnati franchise owner after noticing his sales dropped every Friday when local Catholic customers avoided meat. It became so popular that it beat out a rival idea called the “Hula Burger” (a grilled pineapple sandwich!) in a sales test—and has been on menus ever since.

NEW RECIPE
Smoked BBQ Shrimp
These smoked shrimp are incredibly juicy, lightly smoky, and coated in a tangy barbecue glaze with horseradish, Worcestershire sauce, and fresh lemon juice. They cook quickly over gentle indirect heat, making them an excellent appetizer or main course for backyard cookouts. Apple or alder wood adds a mild, sweet smoke that complements the delicate flavor of the shrimp without overpowering them.
