Our best burger recipes for grilling (and the grill pan), including stuffed, seafood and vegetarian - The Washington Post

These recipes from our archives are a mix of those options for the grill and grill pan, but moving between the two is fairly simple. Keep the heat level the same (medium, high, etc.), though the timing may vary. On an outdoor grill, you also have the option of moving food to indirect heat should you be concerned about burning or overcooking. Want to take your burgers over the top? Try a homemade bun recipe, such as Cookout Burger and Hot Dog Buns or Brioche Buns. And now, here's what to put between them:

Get slushed! 10 delicious frozen cocktail recipes - The Guardian

Posted: 31 May 2021 03:32 AM PDT

This has not been a landmark spring. We've been milling around with our coats zipped up to our necks, weathering wave after wave of wind and rain and hail, for what seems like eight or nine months now. But, at last, things are beginning to warm up. And what better way to celebrate turning your central heating off than by getting out the blender and getting trashed on frozen cocktails? Below you'll find 10 of the best recipes around. But be quick, because knowing this year we're only about a fortnight away from a snowstorm.

Frozen strawberry glut daiquiri

Strangely, the Guardian recipe archives aren't exactly brimming with frozen cocktail recipes, but I did manage to find one in a readers' recipe swap from 2014. The memorably named ID8145743 offered up what they called a "frozen strawberry glut daiquiri", and it's as close to instant fun as you can get. Rum, strawberries, lime juice and ice cubes in a blender. Thirty seconds later you have a drink. Perfect.

Life's a peach

Matt Duckor's "life's a peach" cocktail takes a little more preparation, especially if you're using fresh peaches. They have to be pitted, sliced and frozen on a baking sheet, before being blended with whisky, honey, ice, lemon and lime juice and ground cardamom. One commenter underneath the original recipe called it "alcoholic baby food", which quite frankly sounds exactly like the sort of thing we should all be consuming at the tail end of a devastating pandemic.

Watermelon margarita

While we're still on a fruit-based path, Bianca Zapatka's watermelon margarita is a classic third way. The trick here is to first dice the watermelon into cubes and then freeze it, before blending it with tequila and lime. This might not be entirely universal advice, but this is the perfect recipe to use up the leftover watermelon you always have because your three-year-old keeps convincing you to buy an entire watermelon every week even though you both know he won't eat any more than a mouthful of it.

Frozen gin and tonic

Enough fruit for now. Instead, let's turn to a frozen version of a classic. As you might expect, if you've been paying attention, Sugar and Charm's frozen gin and tonic recipe is basically a gin and tonic that has been blended with ice. However, while a regular gin and tonic is God's most perfect drink, a frozen one is unacceptably bitter. This recipe avoids that with the inclusion of simple syrup.

Frozen Midori sour

You will notice that none of the recipes so far have been even remotely neon, which probably contravenes some sort of international frozen cocktail regulation. Let's counter that with the Tipsy Bartender's frozen Midori sour; essentially a jacked-up melon-flavoured 7-Up slushie. Melon liqueur, sweet and sour mix and 7-Up, blended with ice. Very easy to drink and so violently green that you can probably see it from space.

Frozen blue whale

But if green isn't your colour, Just a Pinch's frozen blue whale will give you the same tingle of "this cannot possibly be good for me", except it's blue. This cocktail is vodka, blue curaçao and lemonade, all blended with ice. Look, once you've made peace with the idea of blending a lot of ice cubes, we're all going to have a much better time together.

Frozen Baileys cappuccino

All these cocktails are incredibly refreshing, because that's the point of them, but now I'm going to veer off into slightly more difficult territory. How Sweet Eats has a recipe for a frozen Baileys cappuccino. It won't quench your thirst like any of the others, but it is essentially a frozen cup of coffee that has loads of booze in it. I'm not going to judge anyone for anything.

Cherry lime beergarita

And then there is the concoction known as a cherry lime beergarita: a frozen margarita, made with limeade concentrate, Sprite and tequila. And then you dump a beer into it as well. Some recipe sites recommend adding the beer to the mix before you serve it to guests. Not Southernparm, though. They just upend a bottle into the glass and leave it there, where it acts as a shrine to bad decisions.

Pink lemonade prosecco gin

Now on to a recipe for pink lemonade prosecco gin by Cool Mom's Top Tips. The good thing about this recipe is that pretty much all the ingredients are listed in the cocktail's name, and by now you know that you make a frozen cocktail by blending it with ice, so this is all very self-explanatory. You're welcome.

Frosé

Finally, here is a recipe for frosé. As the name suggests, frosé is frozen rosé. Not rosé blended with ice. It is basically just some frozen wine. As Rick Martinez describes it, you tip a bottle of rosé into a baking pan and freeze it for six hours. Then you blend that with some strawberry syrup and freeze again, before blending for a second time and serving. I hope you're all very proud of yourselves.

14 Memorial Day Recipes BA Staffers Really Are Eating (and Drinking) to Celebrate - Bon Appetit

Posted: 27 May 2021 11:30 AM PDT

This year, Memorial Day is taking on a lot of new meaning for our staff. Of course, it's the beginning of the summer #grillingseason, bringing with it plenty of fair weather ingredients and recipes we've been patiently waiting to eat in these warmer months (burgers and berries are here to stay). But for many of us, it's also the first chance in over a year to safely connect with friends and family in the ways we know best: by cooking, eating, and drinking. We asked our staff to share the recipes that they'll actually be making this year, including frozen desserts, fried fish, and so much more. From the crowd-pleasing grilled steaks we've been waiting all winter for to the refreshing summer drinks we'll be mixing up to toast Moderna and Pfizer, this is everything we're cooking for this Memorial Day.
