2 Shrimp burger style Po’ boy sandwich’s. One regular(right) and one extra crispy.
The Best Shrimp Burgers
If you love shrimp and you’ve been craving big bites of it, through and through, this Shrimp Burger Recipe is for you. I show you how to make shrimp patties that have about a 1/2 pound of meat, in each one, and are 3/4 of an inch thick, once they’re cooked. I show you how to make two different styles of shrimp burgers, too; regular and/or extra crispy.
One regular Shrimp Burger with a seasoned and sautéed Shrimp patty.
Regular Shrimp Burgers
The regular Shrimp Burger is my wife’s favorite because it has more of a grilled chicken style texture to the shrimp patty, even though it isn’t actually grilled. It is made with a ground and seasoned patty with out the seasoned deep fried crispy crust around the outside and it’s delicious. It can be grilled, though, if you prefer it that way, as long as it holds it’s integrity, once it’s removed from the freezer, the patties grill just fine.
One extra crispy Shrimp burger made with a ground seasoned shrimp patty, pan fried with a panko crust.
Extra Crispy Shrimp Burgers
Personally, I do prefer the extra crispy Shrimp Burger because it’s got a pan fried, seasoned panko crust, just like fried shrimp should have. I had just a few other simple ingredients to the burger, including a few condiments you may or may not want to add but, I’m telling you, you should give this a try before you change up anything.

2 different Racks of Smoked Ribs, cut in half on a cutting board.
The Easiest Smoked Ribs
Anyone that thinks you can’t smoke spare ribs on a gas grill, with excellent results, is retarded. I mean that literally, with offense, because I get the most ridiculous insults in my comments about it. All you need is a controlled, indirect heat source, smoke and a great recipe. The slow and low process takes care of the rest and, with a little finesse, no one will ever be able to tell the difference. I’ll prove it!
How to Smoke Spare Ribs on a Gas Grill video tutorial by PoorMansGourmet.
2 Recipes for Spare Ribs Ingredients:
1st Recipe: Garam Masala Spare Ribs 2 tbsp Kosher Salt & Pepper, each side 2 tbsp Sriracha, each side 2 to 3 tbsp Garam Masala Seasoning or Ground Cumin, each side 1 cup Apple Cider Vinegar, for spritzing
2nd Recipe: Blackened Seasoning Spare Ribs 2 tbsp Kosher Salt & Pepper, each side 2 tbsp Yellow Mustard, each side 2 to 3 tbsp Blackened Seasoning, each side 1 cup Apple Cider Vinegar, for spritzing
This kind of goes with out saying but, you’re going to need a gas grill that has enough space to run indirect heat under the ribs, a bowl of water and some wood chips or pellets to produce smoke. I use this smoke tube but you can shape a box of aluminum foil with poked holes instead, full of burning chips or pellets, and it will work just fine. You’re also going to need some Aluminum foil for wrapping, as well.
Season and cook the ribs, on low indirect heat, for 4 hours at 235° Fahrenheit. Then wrap the ribs in Aluminum Foil, with the wrapping ingredients, and cook for an additional 1 1/2 hours. Follow the instructions in the video tutorial for more details and best results.
There are countless variations of this juice recipe, but its core ingredients—super green fruits and vegetables—make it both nutritious and delicious. Packed with kale, cucumber, celery, green apples, ginger, and a squeeze of lemon, it’s a powerhouse drink. When I have spinach on hand, I like to add that too. This juice is excellent for detoxing the body and can support weight loss when used thoughtfully. Plus, superfoods like these are affordable, so there’s no reason not to give it a try!

Detox and Weight Loss
I’m no expert and I’ve only began to scrape the surface of juicing. I have, however, been incorporating into my diet for almost 10 months now. According to those flat belly experts, it’s impossible to have a healthy liver and be over weight. So, I have a Celery juice every single morning to start, to aid my liver.
Mean Green Juice benefits include Kale, which contains fiber, antioxidants, calcium, vitamins C and K, iron, and a wide range of other nutrients. I drink these on the weekends.
Cucumber hydrates the body and contains potassium and magnesium to support fluid balance. On a personal note, I recently passed my first and hopefully my last, Kidney stone. Hydration was one of the key ingredients to move that along. Cucumber may also clear up your skin and reduce your blood pressure. I’ve even been told that it helps to break up Gout.
Green Apples contain pectin, which is a fiber source that works as a prebiotic. This promotes the growth of healthy bacteria in your gut to help digestion. I’ve also heard that one apple is the equivalent of one cup of coffee, only better for you.
Ginger has anti-inflammatory and antibacterial qualities. It also has a ton of other benefits that include easing digestion, calming nausea or motion sickness and aids the immune system to fight colds and congestion.
Lemon can ease a sore throat, help blood sugar and prevent kidney stones. It has cancer fighting benefits, aids weight loss and, once again, aids in digestion and clears up skin.

Juicer vs Blender
Juicing can waste many nutrients, If you’re separating the pulp. Some people, however, just can’t handle all of the fiber, using a blender. It’s all about personal preference. If you don’t have a juicer and only have a blender, don’t worry. Simply pour the juice through a mesh strainer and mash the pulp with a spatula to remove it.

Watch the short video tutorial and I’ll show you exactly how to make this Mean Green Juice. Also, I like to refrigerate this juice for a couple of hours first. Then give it a good stir before I drink it. It just tastes better that way, to me.
