Ultimate Stuffed Inside LineBurger
Serves 4

The end of the season is once again upon us and calls for a showstopper to serve at your pre-game tailgate or backyard party. This weekend, I’m bringing back an old favorite that will impress your guests’ eyes and delight their stomachs—the Ultimate Stuffed Inside LineBurger!

As a past Inside Linebacker for the Miami Dolphins, this recipe has special personal meaning. You can assemble it in the morning and refrigerate it until grill time. To serve, just cut it into wedges, bun and all, and add some simple sides like potato salad, pickles and chips. The glaze on the outside of the meat seals in the juices and gives in a delicious, savory flavor. It is symbolic in it’s alignment with the NFL (Never Forgotten LineBurger) and you’ll have repeat requests next year!
