To ensure this thread continues in a positive forward motion. I have decided to post some different recipes. Please feel free to share and post your own. I would like to try some of these and post the results sometime in the near future.
Shape 6 ounces of 80 percent lean ground beef chuck into a uniform patty, no more than 3/4 inch thick (don't overwork the meat). Make a depression in the center with your thumb so the burger won't bulge; the indent will rise as the patty cooks. Preheat a grill or cast-iron grill pan to high. Brush the burger with canola oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill until golden brown and slightly charred, turning once (7 minutes for medium-rare). Avoid pressing with a spatula! Add cheese for the last minute of cooking.
Provolone
Oozy cheese makes this burger: Two slices of aged provolone are added during the last minute of grilling.
Hot Peppers
Bobby likes his Philly cheesesteaks with lots of pickled hot peppers, so he loads them on here, too.
Roasted Peppers
In place of classic griddled bell peppers, Bobby uses roasted red peppers, sliced into strips.
Onions
Bobby sautes thin rings of Spanish onion in canola oil until soft and golden to top off the burger.

Did you know that a side of caterpillars (less than 1/2 cup) has 28 grams of protein and is packed with iron and vitamins B1 and B3?
This is about the same protein level in an equivalent portion of lean beef, but the beef comes up way short in iron and vitamin levels(2). Can you believe it? Other insects that are also great sources of protein are grasshoppers, crickets and locusts… and apparently, they are mild in flavor so they easily pick up the flavors of spices they’ve been cooked with (3). Eating 1/2 cup of ants provides 14 grams of protein and 48 grams of calcium! And they are low carb.

Statement on BSE positive cow
By Michael Hansen
Consumers Union, Posted April 25, 2012
Straight to the Source
Tell the USDA to Stop the Madness! Stop the Spread of Mad...
Dr. Michael Hansen, senior scientist at Consumers Union, the advocacy arm of Consumer Reports, and an expert in mad cow, is available for comment on the mad cow story.
MICHAEL HANSEN, PHD, CONSUMERS UNION - Statement on BSE positive cow
Consumers Union is seriously concerned by the announcement today of a new case of mad cow disease in a cow from Central California. This raises three important questions about the safety of US beef.
First, the USDA testing program for mad cow disease is way too small. USDA only tests some 40,000 cows a year of the millions slaughtered annually. So we really don't know if this is an isolated unusual event or whether there are more cases in US beef. Our monitoring program is just too small.
