Fun and Easy summer meal

This meal was so easy, it was actually fun! I felt like I should have been on "Diners, Drive-ins and Dives" making the best burger ever! Tonight I made the BBQ Pineapple & Bacon Burger from "Out Best Bites". The recipe calls for a specialty BBQ so my husband and I used Wingers sticky finger sauce. This was the perfect sauce because it had spice but when it was put with the sweet pineapple the flavors were amazing. Now of course everytime you try a new recipe you are going to have a funny story to go along with it. I was baking the bacon in the oven and started to smell something kind of funny. Well, I opened the oven door and found that my bacon was charcoal BLACK! I rushed the pan outside as fast as I could with smoke filling the room. I couldn't help but laugh. Luckily we were able to salvage a few pieces for our burgers.






To go along with these delicious burgers, we decided to grill some corn. This was SO good and I strongly recommend it. I decided to add a little garlic salt to the corn with fresh ground pepper and it made the corn amazing. When you would bite into the corn you would bet the initial taste of butter, but then a little hint of garlic. It was amazing! I sliced up some watermelon and it was a complete meal. This was an awesome dinner and I highly recommend it.
