Quick Fix Dinner

Tonight I just threw something together, some Maui turkey burgers with whiskey BBQ sauce served with sauteed carrots and salad.

Nothing special, just the frozen seasoned turkey burgers cooked with pineapples and onions on the good ol' George Foreman grill. About 2 minutes before they are done I add some of the BBQ sauce on the burgers. Toast up some Potato Rolls and smear some of the sauce on either side, add a slice of swiss chesse and some leafy lettuce and then put the burger (pineapple and all) on the bun.

Tossed the salad with a little store-bought basalmic vinaigrette.

The carrots were done by slicing them in large pieces and then sauteing them with 1 T of butter and 2 T of Seasoned Rive Wine Vinegar and some salt and pepper. Cook until tender and serve warm.

The only thing that required a little more effort (but certainly not much) was the BBQ sauce:

No-Molasses Whiskey BBQ Sauce

This is a go to BBQ sauce for me, because I usually have all the ingredients on hand, it's not super thick and it's good on almost anything.

This makes quite a bit but it keeps on hand for a long time.


1 cup Ketchup
1 cup Dark Brown Sugar
1/2 cup Seasoned Rice Wine Vinegar
1/2 cup Jack Daniels (or whatever other on hand whiskey)
2 T Red Wine Vinegar
1 T Worchestire Sauce
1 T Frank's Red Hot
1 T Soy Sauce

Combine all ingredients over medium heat until it comes to a boil. Turn down to a simmer and let simmer for 15 minutes.
