A couple of days ago, KKL and Jeff came over with their son for a barbecue at our house. We made both beef and chicken burgers, and in a moment of inspiration, we added some of the shrimp dip they had brought along as an oscar sauce.

My particular chicken burger turned out so well that we just had to photograph it, Darren style. And it worked! Yummy.
