I’m not above a friendly gathering to sit and watch the World Cup. I’m certainly not above cooking for those friends while everyone screams and hoots over the recent 7 – 1 score and just how crazy things get in the heat of the game. Seriously, the biter? That was a bit much.
When inspired to come up with something to munch on during World Cup fever, and my knowledge of Brazilian food being pretty thin ( think restaurants where meat is served on giant skewers) I wanted to create something to the Girl Carnivore standard, as well as play on the little I did know. Something fun, a little over the top, and a bit out of control. Something that would be easy to let your passion get caught up in.
X-Tudo burgers, after a wee bit of research and google fact checking, are loaded burger bombs of awesome. Just what I needed. So this X-Tudo Brazilian Everything Burger has it all – Bahian spiced beef patty, fried egg, ham, and lots of cheese. Perfect for this #flavorstory for the games. Oh, and I got to serve it on a ‘skewer’ of my own just to keep the tower from toppling over.

I am the same way with the superbowl. Although I love college football and the world cup I just don’t get too into the superbowl, but I definitely get into the food! Love this burger and that you served it on a knife skewer to hold it together.

I hope this is the right place to enter. Every time I use curry I think of my son, because we used to use it frequently when we cooked together when he was younger.
