Onion Soup Steakburger

I finally tried out that recipe using Campbell’s French Onion soup on my steakburgers — and it was unbelievable!

Check out that steakburger just oozing with flavor! The cheese is a nice addition, too.

My husband dipped his burger in the remaining sauce like a French dip and reports that it was scrumptious.

I ate mine without a bun and dipped it in the sauce. Mwah! It was wonderful.

For an extra kick, try this ground beef with Sweet Vidalia Onion mixed in. Oh, the smells! The flavors!

Extra points if you eat this steakburger outside on your balcony or patio and just breathe in the atmosphere.

Cartoon Steak

So, it’s summer break here at our house. The kids are home. I work from home. And there are lots of cartoons on TV.

Mind you, not all day, but isn’t that what you’re supposed to do in the summer?

And I’ve discovered that even those clever cartoon-makers are steak lovers. This “Phineas and Ferb” episode features the bad guy in town stealing all the steaks and locking them up far, far away. The storage container of steaks blows up and steaks rain down. Yay!

WARNING:  If you are afraid of raining steaks, DO NOT watch this episode — especially at the end!

Steak-Scented Billboard?

Oh, yeah.

I may have to drive through North Carolina just to behold this beauty. I’ll roll down my windows, of course.

What do you think about this?

Steak Scented Billboard Entices Drivers

Motorists in North Carolina are being given hunger pangs by a new scented roadside billboard – which puts out the smell of peppered beef.

The ad, along Highway 150 in Mooresville for local grocer Bloom, is shaped like a gigantic piece of steak on a fork, reports Fox News.

But it is the smell of black pepper and charcoal, being emitted from a high-powered fan, which is attracting all of the attention.

“It smells like uh, barbecue, like hickory or something like that being barbecued and smells like steak,” one motorist said.

The billboard is the work of local firm ScentAir which provides custom scents for businesses including hotel lobbies, casino gambling and retail stores.

Marketing director Murray Dameron said the beef scent was emitted by a high-powered fan at the bottom of the billboard that blows air over cartridges loaded with BBQ fragrance oil.

“It smells like grilled meat with a nice pepper rub on it,” he explained.

Bloom spokesperson Angie Hunter said: “With all the advertising around, you wanna be able to jump out and really grab the consumer’s attention.”
