Difficulty: Trivial
Cook time: 10 minutes
Ingredients:
1/2 lb Ground Buffalo
1 hamburger bun
1/8 Cup Hot Guac
2 oz Hot Pepper Jack
1 Tbsp mustard
Heat/cook burger using your favorite method. I prefer them grilled, but you could broil or pan-cook it. Melt cheese on top of burger pattie.
Toast the bun, I like to do that on the grill at the last minute to get a few grill marks on the bun.
Put mustard on bottom of bun, add burger/cheese and top with Hot Guac!

Active prep time: 30 mins
Inactive prep time: 1 hours
Active cooking time: 30 minutes per pound
Ingredients
3-6 lbs Beef rib roast, beef butt roast.
1/2 cup Kaydub Rub
6 cloves of garlic, pealed
Directions
Step 1: Insert garlic cloves into roast by first pushing a small-bladed sharp knife into the roast, then push the garlic clove into the hole. Try to get the garlic distributed well throughout the roast.
Step 2: Cover roast on all sides with Kaydub Rub
Step 3: Put roast on the rotisserie, and use a drip pan to catch the juice. If your BBQ also has a smoker, turn that on with some woodchips as well. Keep the temperature of the BBQ interior at around 350.
Step 4: Cook for about 30 minutes per pound, check the temperature in a thick part of the roast, but make sure not to take the reading too close to the metal bars. A center temp of 145 will produce a nice medium-rare, but not bloody, roast beef.
Step 5: Remove the roast from the rotisserie, cover in aluminum foil for 15 minutes to rest.
Step 6: Remove foil, slice as thick or thin as desired.

Recipe by Ken Wallich
- 1/2 lb lean ground beef
- 1/2 oz chopped mushroom (I used shiitake)
- 1/2 habanero, seeded
- 1/2 serrano, seeded
- 1/2 oz shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 oz KayDub Rub
Split meat into two portions, make two patties. Make one patty slightly larger in diameter than the other, and make them slightly thinner in the middle to contain the filling. Place the chopped ingredients on the smaller patty, cover with the larger patty, and pinch the edges all around to seal. Sprinkle KayDub Rub on both sides. Put on a medium-high grill or broiler. Cook for 7-8 minutes on the first side, flip, cook for 5-6 minutes on the second side for medium, depending on how thick the burger ended up. Eat as a meat entree with a fork, or put on a bun/bread with the condiments of your choice. I used spicy catchup, yellow mustard, and a slight touch of mayo on this one.
