Lamburgers. Aldi had ground Lamb on sale this week. My Brother and SIL are visiting this weekend, so I bought a couple of pounds. Freshly smashed garlic cloves, some onion powder, some pepper, mix it all together squishing and kneading it by hand, make patties, and toss 'em on the George Foreman grill. Damn, those were delicious. I did find out that lamb is greasy as hell, though. It's probably about 20 percent fat. Maybe more. Mmm, lamb-fat...
I taught my brother a good way to peel fresh garlic cloves. Put 'em on a cutting board, put your cleaver flat over top of 'em, and whack the cleaver lightly with a rubber mallet. The garlic skins come off, easy-peasy. After you take the skins off, whack them a second time, hard, to squash 'em really good and flat, and there's no need to 'mince' the stuff.
