I’m just now getting around to publishing this year’s Superbowl treat. It’s maybe a little tough to visualize an inside-out bacon cheeseburger. But it’s a very literal rendition, and as far as I know it’s totally original. It was a great presentation to wow the adults with, but the kids absolutely inhaled it.

This is an adaptation of the Jamaican Pot Roast my Mom made me as a kid. Hers is a delicious and mild recipe that I’ll probably cook properly in a future installment. But this was very much inspired by it, and it turned out flawlessly. The rub isn’t a true Jerk seasoning, but it’s a very tasty twist on it.

I spent a lot of time on the gravy. I kept tasting until it finally tasted “right”, because I had nothing more than a guess in mind when I started. It’s very pleasantly spicy, not a singing peppery hot. It poses the slow, poised heat which ginger yields when you’re not shooting for sweet.
