It’s Grilling Month … Week One: Burgers!

Posted on August 1, 2012 by We The Eaters

For our inaugural post, we offer up a classic just about everyone can get behind — the hamburger. With so many different options, what’s not to love? For the easy to please, there’s plain old fashioned ground beef. If you’d rather skip the beef, try turkey, bison or lamb. And if meat’s not your thing, how about a hearty black bean burger?

And what better way to tackle this summer grilling staple than with our Sweet, Savory and Spin feature? How on earth do you make a burger sweet? Elevate a savory burger to a whole new level? Or just make a burger … without a grill? You’ll just have to look inside to see.

Welcome to our little food community, where we hope you’ll become more than an avid reader. In the coming months, we’ll be implementing a merit system that will allow you to become a contributor. We’re really excited to start a conversation with our readers, to share ideas and inspiration, and to embark on this culinary adventure together.

But first, we’d like to thank the Academy…

OK, joking aside, there are some folks we need to thank. Don’t fall asleep yet — there’s some important info following on how We The Eaters works.

First and foremost — Adam, our amazing web developer. Without you, we simply wouldn’t exist. Max, who braved a thousand edits to help us make the look of this site a reality. Our wonderful friends and family, because it’s your encouragement and excitement that’s kept us going.

Thanks for bearing with us. Speaking of us … find out more about the masterminds behind We The Eaters here.

There’s no real trick to using the site, but there are a few things you need to know:

Each month, there’s a theme. Each week in that month, we’ll serve up a different take on that theme.

August 2012: Grilling
Week One: Grilled Burgers
Week Two: Grilled Sides
Week Three … We’d reveal more, but that would ruin the surprise. You get the basic idea.

So thanks for joining us — we look forward to cooking with you!
