Irene Man Brings New Twist to Pre-Game Party
Ladies and gentlemen, meet Augie Viking Fan and Chef Supreme, Skip Graff. Kickin’ Country Sports Guy Jeff Fylling introduced me to Skip about an hour before the start of the Augustana-Northern State football game this past weekend at Skip’s little pre-game party. What happened after the introduction is something I won’t soon forget. Skip introduced me to a Pheasant-Bacon Burger.
Skip mentioned that he hunts quite a bit and had stumbled across a recipe that he wanted to share. It’s really quite simple. Half pheasant breast and half bacon. He said, “all you have to do is grind it up, mix it up and then grill it slow until it’s done.”
When you bite into one of these baby’s, the outside is crunchy with the bacon melding into the outer crust and the inside is juicy, delightful heaven! The texture of the bacon crunching up on the outer layer got my taste buds dancing right away!
I should also mention that Skip served the gem on a whole wheat bun and garnished it with a slice of tomato. So, the Pheasant Bacon Burger is good for you! Sort of, but considering most tailgating food it’s way better than most!
Two words Skip. Good Stuff!
The Augustana Vikings travel to Bismark to play University of Mary this Saturday. Pre-game is set for 2:00 p.m with a 2:30 p.m kick off. Hear the game on Kickin’ Country! You can also listen to the game on your computer through our web-site at KIKN.com or with your Android or I-Phone. Just go to your ap store and download Radio Pup.
Do you have a favorite tailgating meal? I’d live to hear about it. jdcollins@kikn.com
