Slater’s 50/50 Burgers: Half Bacon, Half Beef, 100% Delicious

August 25, 2016 by

At Slater’s 50/50 Burgers, Scott Slater and executive chef Brad Lyons give Anaheim residents an extra serving of protein with 50/50 burgers, which are made with 50% ground bacon and 50% ground beef.

The burgers come with a variety of toppings including mashed avocado, sunny side up egg, and pineapple. You can also design it your way by picking the size, meat, bread, cheese, toppings, and sauce. Looking for something unique? Pick some of the more unique ingredients such as alligator andouille, Spam, or bacon-infused country gravy. If you aren’t in the mood for a beef/bacon hybrid, you can make a burger from fried chicken, turkey, portabella mushroom, or the meat of the month.

Wash your hearty bites down with a cold beer. Slater’s features more than 25 craft and local beers on tap and another more than 80 bottles. You can feel confident that your beer is good hands too. All of Slater’s servers are certified beer servers.

Seriously Tempting No-Bake Desserts to Try This Summer

August 18, 2016 by

If you can’t even imagine turning on the oven during the summer heat, no-bake desserts are the perfect alternatives to your usual fresh baked cookies. These oven-free desserts are just as delicious as more traditional options, and they’re often much easier to prepare, which leaves you with more time for lounging by the pool! Here are three no-bake dessert recipes to try at your next potluck dinner.

Super-Simple Fixes for Kitchen Clutter

August 4, 2016 by

Out of every room in your home, the kitchen seems to be the space that gets used the most—and it's also the space that's first to attract clutter! Sound like you? Follow these tips to help maintain order in your busy kitchen.

  • Go through your cabinets and donate or toss out the items that are not frequently used. Your main goal is to have only the items that you love and use.
  • Create groups or categories for your items. For example, sort all of your baking items together in one section and your cooking items in another.
  • Use clear containers to store items and place them inside your cabinets. This keeps everything from being scattered all over the place.
  • Place hooks underneath your cabinets to hold mugs or use a stemware rack in the same spot to hold wine glasses. You could also use adhesive hooks inside of your cabinets to hang measuring cups or oven mitts.
  • Use rotating trays in your cabinets to hold oils, vinegars, or spices. You can also use them in your refrigerator for beverages.
  • Use a small bar cart to store some silverware or your coffee pot and mugs.
