Fry Sauce and A New Toy

Today is my one year anniversary.  Today, one year ago was my first blog publication.  How is it that time can go so incredibly fast...I will never understand.  Well, a lot has definitely happened in this past year and so much more is yet to come.

In celebration of this anniversary, and Father's Day, and Mother's Day and our actual wedding anniversary, we purchased a Traeger Smoker and Wood Pellet Grill or as my daughter called it, a cute little train???

We took this smoker/grill for a test run this weekend and had a carnivore fest in preparation of family coming out to see us.  Oh my goodness this smoker kicks butt - literally!!  We made the most incredible pork butt pulled pork in its finale for tonight's dinner.


For its inauguration, we did our Friday Night Daddy Burgers and added Gorgonzola cheese to the beef mixture along with Worcestershire sauce and McCormick's steak seasoning - mmmmm!!!

The best part of our new toy is it will work in the middle of winter and less cooking for mama - wahoo!!


Of course you cannot have burgers without fries, so I baked up a batch and we made our own fry sauce. We first learned about fry sauce during one of our Idaho trips and have been hooked ever since.  You will never want ketchup again after dipping in this delight.

Fry Sauce

1 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup white sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon ground mustard
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 cup ketchup
2 Tablespoons red wine vinegar
1-1/2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce

Whisk together all ingredients until smooth and well blended.  Cover and refrigerate until chilled and ready to use.
