World's Best Pulled PORK SLIDERS

• 1/2 lb barbecued pulled pork, cut into small pieces
  
• 1 small onion - diced
  
• 1/2 cup - 3/4 cup bread crumbs
  
• 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  
• 2 tsp 3 Eyz BBQ original rub
  
• 1 tbsp BBQ sauce
  (we like Sweet Baby Ray's, but this is up to you!)
  
• 2 Large eggs - beaten
  

In small pan, saute onions until translucent. Put onions in small bowl, mix in 3Eyz Rub, then refrigerate  to cool.

In a medium bowl, mix together pork, chilled onion mixture, mayonnaise, bbq sauce, and eggs. Add bread crumbs a little at a time until desired consistency. Mixture should be moist, yet able to be formed. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Shape mixture into 2 1/2 - 3 oz patties (one batch yields around 10 patties).

Heat 3 Tbsp oil in pan on medium heat.

Fry patties 3 minutes per side (they are done when reach internal temperature of 160 degrees).

Drain on paper towel lined plate.

...or Bake at 350 degrees for 5-7 minutes per side (patties should reach internal temp of 160 degrees)

Serve with your favorite barbecue sauce.

Bill's Mark V Garage Chili

Not too hot, just a little kick

Ground Beef 1000g (2.2 lbs or so)
Qty (2) 28oz cans diced tomatoes
Qty (2) cans tomato paste (Muir Glen, preferred)
Dried Bell Peppers 21g
Cayenne Pepper 2g (1 tsp)
Granulated Garlic 3g (1/2 tsp)
Accent (MSG) 10g
Ancho Chili Powder 20g
Cumin 3g (2 tsp)
4 Dried Thai Chilis
Black Pepper 6g (3 tsp)
Salt 8g (1 tsp)
Qty (2) 4oz cans green chilies
Qty (2) 12oz black beans
Qty (2) Medium yellow onions, chopped

Large knob of butter, 3-5 TBS

Optional: 14g Savory Premium yeast extract, 5g Simple Beef yeast extract for a little extra "je ne sais quois" :-)

Chop the onions and cook them with the ground beef and spices (not the garlic, it will burn) until translucent. This step is important.

Throw everything into a Dutch Oven and cook on low for several hours, or until desired consistency is achieved. Add garlic toward the end of cooking, along with the yeast extract, if used. The yellow onions are key. Do no use "sweet" onions, and let them cook!

Stir in butter just before removing from heat. Add hot sauce if you like it hot.

Perfect over eggs, on nachos or served in a bowl with sour cream, diced onions and shredded cheese.
