WHAT'S FOR DINNER: Cheeseburger with secret sauce, lamb cuts & how to cook them, healthier habits, and how to prepare meat for the bbq
This week on What’s For Dinner? we are sharing our favourite burger recipe including our very own secret sauce! Learn more about lamb cuts and how to cook them, how to start healthier habits and things to keep in mind when preparing your meat for a low 'n' slow bbq. We also have an exciting announcement in store for you!
The secret is in the sauce
When banging up a burger on the barbeque, only the best will do. A burger pattie made from the outstanding beef and lamb mince we have here in New Zealand deserves no less than a delicious sauce to accompany it (we think we just might have found it). Have a look inside the recipe to find out what it's made from.
Cooking tip: Try using different cheeses like camembert, Gruyère or fried haloumi. Blue cheese is a perfect match with beef – we highly suggest you give it a go. Click here for our Cheeseburger with secret sauce recipe.
