Bacon Butter Burgers at the Beach

Alejandra (aka @frijolita) came to the beach this weekend and brought pure evil along with her in the form of advice from our friend Nevin Martell, "to get the perfect burger, sandwich a pat of butter in the middle of the patty."

Evil happening here...

To add insult to injury, we topped it with slices of cheddar and slabs of applewood smoked bacon from the Pennsylvania Dutch Farmers Market (where I stopped on the way to the beach and went totally overboard.)

Bacon Butter Burgers

You can't serve something that egregious with more fat, so I whipped up a tomato, cucumber, olive and feta salad. Try it sometime. Then try to stay awake.
