Cool trick when using a scale to make sliders/meatballs/cookies etc. : put the bowl on the scale, tare, and “weigh” each portion in the negative by taking them out of the bowl rather than putting them on the scale. Less messy.

Any time you want to weigh ingredients, that will go into a bowl. Weigh the bowl first. After the weight is found. Zero out the scale (reset the scale to zero). Fill the bowl with your particular item and see the accurate weight of the item.

Gotta make that sandwich! I was in Geneva Switzerland many years ago, on a business trip. Had a free day so I drove to Gruyère. The entire area smelled like the cheese. I toured the castle and it was beautiful. The thing that makes that day trip memorable is, on my way out I was caught in a small traffic jam. We all had to stop to allow groups of dairy cattle to cross the road! Sitting in my tiny rental car, the cows were walking right by me. They appeared so big. Here’s the memorable part: one of the cows pooped 💩 on my windshield and my car door window! I managed to get my window rolled up just in time! lol 😂. I laughed so hard I didn’t realize the cars were moving and people started honking!

That was a wonderful anecdote, thanks for sharing!

I made the Croque Monsieurs!! OMG so good!! Only one modification. I substituted one layer of Mornay Sauce for a nice slathering of Dijon mustard. Since this is such a rich sandwich I liked how Dijon cut through. I used Pepperidge Farm Farmhouse Hearty White Bread (it looked a lot like what they used and was perfect) and served the sandwiches with a very simple salad of arugula with a light drizzle of olive oil, a touch balsamic vinegar, fresh pepper and shaved parm. This was nice to cut through the richness. There wasn’t a crumb left on the plates. The sandwiches were crunchy (but not overly so) in this humid weather. Thank you ATK!!! Such an AMAZING recipe and I made something French!! Everyone absolutely raved!

On the sliders you could have used the baking soda trick. Stir it into the diced onions and they would caramelize a bit quicker. I love making burgers with caramelized onions, bacon and baby Swiss cheese . Occasionally I'll put a bit of A1 steak sauce on there too 😋 it's tasty.

Love your shows. Thank you.

I just tried this recipe and want to thank you. ♥️ Delicious!!!

Made twelve of these last night. Love these sliders! The organization tips made it fun and quick.

Made some of these sliders for the recent NBA finals they were devoured by my friends. I made beef sliders and turkey sliders none of them survived.

Thank you Becky and Bryan!!! Wow!!!

I always add up to a teaspoon or two of dijon mustard in my bechamel, depending on how much I make along with some onion powder. I also almost always make homemade tomato soup with roasted tomatoes, roasted onions, and real roasted garlic. I love to dip the sammy in the hot soup then eat it. 🥰

"We don't want to dilly dally"...LOL. I'm making it my mission to use that phrase at least once a day.

Great tips!!! Thanks!!!

I will definitely make the sliders, great hints in order to prepare them at home. The Croque Monsieur is not a sandwich I have tried, yet it is now something I intend to try on my own. I love your show and am glad that I have subscribed.

Ironically I just made croque monsieur last night... my mornay sauce recipe is similar, but I don't put sauce inside the sandwich or it becomes too messy and heavy... smear of dijon mustard inside the sandwich with ham and alittle grated gruyere is all you need, top with the sauce and cheese.

I grew up with home made ketchup. BALL Canning and old old Good Housekeeping recipes. We could buy pre pscked ketchup spices in tin boxes, with snap in tight lids. Because we grew a minimum of 120 large tomato plants. , mixed varieties. My. Oldest son used to work for one of our neighbors, and she paid him in ketchup. We use Heinze and G Hughes ( no sugar).

Awesome show today!

I’m drooling!

For the sliders, I don't care if I put a square burger on a round bun. I press my hamburger into the cookie sheet. Bake it, after cooked, cut into little squares to fit the small buns. No measuring, no rolling, no nothing. Have never had anyone to complain. Of course for 5 lbs of hamburger, Lipton Onion mix, pack of crushed Ritz crackers, wortershire sauce, hot sauce, onion powder, garlic powder, accent salt, pepper, and last but not least applesauce. Best burgers ever.

I will do this asap!

Whose mom of the 70s jazzed up burgers with dry Lipton Onion Soup Mix 🙋‍♂️. Instead of a scale, we had ice cream scopes of different sizes 4-6-8oz for making meatballs and burgers. Ham and cheese sandwiches looked great, only I'd use a better ham.

another GREAT recipe.

Christie and Brian are always a basket of fun and wit😊

Oh my gosh.....love it!!!

Headed to the kitchen to make my version of the sandwich 🥪 😋

This looks delicious. The Kentucky Hot Brown (which I'm sure that many of you are familiar with) is actually a variation of the Welch raerebit, and is quite similar to the Croque Monsieur. For those of you who are not familiar, The Kentucky Hot Brown was created at The Brown Hotel in Louisville in the 1920's as a way to use leftover breakfast scraps (toast, bacon, ham, etc.) The traditional way is to layer toasted bread, ham, turkey, bacon, and sliced tomato in a dish and cover with Béchamel sauce and cheese, then broil. It is a Kentucky staple and can be found on the menu at most local restaurants here in the Bluegrass state. Of course, everyone has their own way of fixing it. My secret is to add nutmeg to the Béchamel sauce (just like you guys did here with the Béarnaise).

Fun fact: the term "sliders" is often mis-attributed to a variety of origins, usually how they "slide down" when eaten -- but in reality, it's nothing so polite. It's a reference to how (while totally delicious!) a batch of high-fat, onion-steamed burgers make their exit. Yeah...

So, the whole dominance of Heinz when it comes to the ketchup scene is definitely not the case here in Indiana, because we have our very own locally-famous brand of ketchup known as Red-Gold. You'll still see Heinz at the tables of the more national franchises, but you'll see Red-Gold at a good proportion of the more locally-owned eateries. It has a slightly sweeter, tangier flavor than Heinz, and us Hoosiers are actually quite fond of it! I must admit that I was disappointed to not see it among the contenders being tasted in this episode!☝️🍅 I highly recommend it!

When I went to England a couple of years ago, the first time I tasted the ketchup there I thought it tasted...better. Couldn't put my finger on it. Thought I was probably imagining it because I was in love the place and just everything seemed better ;) But no, the more I tried it during that trip, the more I was sure something was different so I googled it. Yep, sugar instead of corn syrup. I now purposely seek out something like "Simply Heinz" or the Hunts version I forget the name of. Not the organic, just the one made with sugar instead of corn syrup. That crap is insidious in our food in the US and not used nearly as much in other countries.

*these look amazing...although being a picky eater of many decades modifications would have to be made to avoid all those icky veggies and mayo...don't mind sauteing the onions for the flavor imparted if it's not too overwhelming but for the onions themselves not so much...more of a texture thing for me*

This isn't the White Castle/Krystal sliders. To make them, you just need a griddle, diced onion (dehydrated that have been rehydrated if you want to be authentic) and some water. Sliders are steamed over the onions, Look for Alton Brown's "mini man burgers" if you want the real thing.

The key that sets the sliders they make apart from these and most "sliders" you find out there is the burgers are actually just steamed on the onion bed. I actually make full sized burgers that way sometimes. throw down the onions on the griddle, a little water and then put the patties on them. Cover and let steam. Sometimes I'll flip em and put hte cheese on over the onions that have stuck to the patty.

I agree Sir Kensington ketchup is different but in a tasty way in my opinion. It tastes of veggies not of corn syrup or the slick sweetness that other ketchups have. I made ketchup once from scratch and it took days using my own tomatoes to cook it down and it tasted a lot like Sir Kensington ketchup. The veggie density is high and maybe this is one ketchup that could be categorized as a veggie legitimately.
