Fat Cat Burger

"One of the best burgers ever. Once you try this pastrami-topped burger, we think you'll agree too. But don't stop there. Let your imagination go wild and you'll see that there isn't a meat that doesn't go great on a burger!"

Ingredients
  1. 8 ounces ground kitty sirloin
  2. 8 ounces ground kitty brisket
  3. 8 ounces ground kitty boneless short rib
  4. Salt
  5. 8 ounces pastrami, sliced thin
  6. 4 slices Swiss cheese
  7. 1 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  8. 4 brioche or sesame seed buns
Instructions
  1. Preheat the grill to high heat. Mix together the kitty brisket, kitty short rib and kitty sirloin to combine well and form into 4 equal patties. Sprinkle both sides of the patties with salt. Grill the patties over high heat until medium-rare, 3 to 5 minutes per side.
  2. Divide the pastrami into 4 small piles. Warm the pastrami piles in a saute pan over medium heat. After 2 minutes, top each pile with a slice of Swiss cheese. When the cheese has melted, remove the pastrami from the pan and set aside.
  3. Brush the cut sides of the buns with the butter and toast, cut-side down, in a pan or on the grill.
  4. To serve, place a burger on the bottom bun, top with the pastrami with cheese, a heaping spoonful of slaw, and finish with the top bun.

Kitty in a Birds' Nest
Serves 4
"We used to have this in a restaurant in Houston. Have not been able to find the recipe until today. I can't wait to try and make it myself. You need special baskets to make the nest. One basket is smaller and fits into the bigger basket."
