I love a good burger. My favorite burger is from shake shack, I cannot get enough.  A good shack burger and some cheese fries, yes please!  There are tons of burger places now and they all have their slightly different yet very similar version of a burger sauce or secret sauce. I've played around with recipes for a while now for our burgers at home and this has become my favorite burger sauce to make! And this sauce is absolutely perfect for Freddy's Burgers , that's what is pictured above. 1/4 cup mayonnaise 3/4 tbsp ketchup 1/2 tbsp yellow mustard 3 slices dill pickles 1/4 tsp garlic salt 1/8 tsp paprika In a small food processor chop the pickles.  Add the remaining ingredients and blend until smooth. Place in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours before serving but 24 hours is best!

Any sort of pulled or shredded meat is pretty much guaranteed to be a hit in my house. This pork would be great by itself or on a bun like I served it. This recipe is adapted from Mostly Homemade Mom . 1 pork butt roast 3 tbsp chili powder 1 tbsp cumin 1 tbsp salt 1 tsp garlic powder 1 tsp pepper 1/2 tsp dried mustard 2 cups apple cider 1 jar bbq sauce  Mix together the chili powder, cumin, salt, garlic powder, pepper and dried mustard.  Rub the seasonings all over the pork roast. Place in the bottom of the crock pot.  Pour the apple cider over the top. Cook on low for 8-10 hours. Remove the roast from the crock pot and shredded. Pour out the juices and keep 1 1/2 cups reserved. Whisk together the juice and 1 1/2 cup bbq sauce. Place the shredded pork back in the crock pot and mix in the sauce. Let cook for 15 minutes then serve. 

These are the perfect two bite party food! They are filling yet easy to make and always a hit.  This recipe is from Food Lovin Family . 2 cans pillsbury grands jr biscuits frozen italian meatballs (thawed) 3 sticks mozarella string cheese (cut into pieces) 1/2 tsp italian seasoning 1/4 tsp garlic powder 1/2 cup butter (melted) marinara sauce for dipping Heat oven to 375. Melt the butter in a bowl then stir in the italian seasoning and garlic powder. Separate the biscuits and flatten them. Cut the meatballs in half then place half a meatball and two pieces of string cheese in the dough then wrap the dough around and seal it.  Place the sealed side down in the baking dish. Repeat with the remaining biscuits and meatballs.  Brush with the butter mixture. Bake for 18-20 minutes. Remove from oven and serve with marinara sauce.

Puppy chow, muddy buddies, whatever you call them this is a classic! Everyone seems to make their recipe slightly differently but this is how I make it! 1 (12 oz) box Crispix 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips 1 cup smooth peanut butter 5 tbsp butter 1 lb powdered sugar In a sauce pan melt together the chocolate chips, peanut butter and butter.  Stir together over low heat until it is completely melted. Pour the cereal into the chocolate mixture and stir until it is covered. Place half of the powdered sugar into a 2 gallon ziplock bag. Add the coated cereal then pour in the remaining powdered sugar and carefully shake to coat.  Place in an airtight container to store.
