It's The Season To #CookOut #Recipe!

 



Hey Everyone!! :-)

In honor of the Fourth of July, and the official kickoff for cookout season, I wanted to share one of my favorite cookout recipes. Enjoy and Happy Independence Day! 😊

Ingredients:
1 per burger portabello mushroom cap
1 per burger hamburger bun (your favorite kind)
10 bell peppers (can be one color or a mix of colors)
3 onions chopped
4 large cloves of garlic rough chopped
2 1/2 cups distilled white vinegar
3 cups water
2/3 cup sugar
1/4 cup salt

Put the peppers on a baking sheet in a single layer. Bake at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 45 minutes. Turn the peppers over halfway through baking. Remove the peppers from the oven and immediately place them in a ziplock bag. Let them sit for 15 minutes. The skins should be easy to pull off at this point. Remove the skins and seeds and chop the peppers.

Put the chopped peppers, onions, and garlic in a large bowl. Set them aside. In a saucepan, combine the water, vinegar, sugar, and salt. Bring them to a boil. Stir them until the salt and sugar are completely dissolved. Remove from the heat and pour the hot liquid over the peppers, onions, and garlic. Allow the mixture to cool and then cover it. Refrigerate it overnight (or longer). When ready for your cookout, drain the pepper mixture, pulse the mixture in a food processor a couple of times, and serve it chilled as a relish.

Lay your mushroom caps out on a tray. Sprinkle each side with salt and pepper (to taste) and brush or drizzle each side with olive oil. Cook on a grill or in a buttered skillet for 2-3 minutes per side, or until the surface starts to brown and the edges start to soften. Grill or toast the buns and spread them with butter or mayonnaise. Place the mushroom caps on the prepared buns and serve topped with pepper relish.

Bon Appetit! 😊
