Last Chatham Farmer's Market 2010--11/20/10

This Saturday is the last day of the Chatham Farmer's Market for the 2010 season.   I can't believe it is over already.   The last few Saturday's we have gone have been a bit cold----so I intend to bundle up.  To commemorate this last day of the season we are having somewhat of a sale.   All burger packages will be priced at $6 for two burgers vs our usual $7.   As it is also the last day Theresa is coming up with a great side using all the ingredients seen in her table displays (think warmth).   We get just as many complements on  her pretty displays as we do for our Veggie Burgers.   Once the season has ended that doesn't mean we won't have burgers to sell.....just comment here or send us an email at thesavorygarden@gmail.com and we will deliver them to you.   We look forward to seeing everyone Saturday----come by and visit!

Chatham Farmer's Market this Saturday!

Hi everyone we will be back this Saturday, October 23, at the Chatham Farmer's Market.  It seems like ages since we were there.   It looks like it will be a nice day albeit a bit cool.   I was glad we weren't there for the huge wind storm we had a few weeks ago.   Although it might have made for an exciting day.   We are busy preparing for this week's market.   Theresa hasn't told me what our special side will be ~ so I will get back to you on that.   Here are some photos of the our burger prep in action....

The vegetables for the Asian Veggie  Burger

I love how the Asian burgers look while the vegetables are sauteing....I wish you could them......intoxicating!

Grilling up so Asian burgers

I love how the grill up so perfectly!

Our Barbecue Burger before....

Sometimes I think we should just make a "meatloaf" out of this it looks so good!

The Barbecue burger after the grill!

Don't they look good....I guess we will stick to burgers....

Anyway off to make some Southwestern burgers.....more news tomorrow on what we are bringing Saturday!

The Origin of the Barbecue Veggie Burger

Theresa was in a quandary....how to get her kids to like and eat more vegetables.   She had already developed the Southwestern burger but her kids wouldn't eat it because of the spices.   Then she had an idea....kids like sweet...so she decided to make a sweeter veggie burger and put in a vegetable she knows her kids love--mainly corn.    She already knew they like her barbecue sauce because she had been making that for awhile so why not use that with a veggie mix.    What developed was a most kid friendly veggie burger that lots of adults like too.   We had quite the learning experience with this one....I think I mentioned  it before how we never new Worcestershire sauce has anchovies in it....we had to find one that didn't in order to be a true veggie burger.   We found Annie's Naturals which has a vegan sauce--problem solved.   Anyway the Barbecue Veggie Burger is still a very popular flavor but wouldn't you know it  her kids have developed a taste for "spicy" & "hot" and love her Southwestern Veggie Burger too.....
