When growing up on the farm it was not unusual for my dad and grandpa to work late into the evenings. I used to love to grill burgers and garnish them with fresh vegetables. I would pack a supper basket and take to the fields where they were working. There was something special about those burgers…or maybe it was just the pure simple pleasure of eating one among the Killdeer birds screeching across the hay fields or the smell of the dirt freshly tilled. Sometimes it’s more about the company kept and surroundings that makes a meal memorable.
I recently discoverd these Salmon Burgers in Marysville Ohio at Barry’s Perch n More. Barry raises his own Yellow Perch for his business. He sells beef, chicken, pork and other variaties of seafood also. If you live in the Central Ohio area, look him up at
900 Columbus Ave. Marysville, 43040.
I bet these burgers would of tasted exceptional packed in my supper basket.
