Bonjour :3
People are necroing the weirdest of threads so I figured I necro one of my favorites.
BTW when did Hot Pockets become half decent? I got one of those Big and Tasty Pepperoni ones for lunch at work cause I didn't feel like going anywhere and it was actually pretty good.
No better excuse then that!
Your not crazy, I think recently they changed up the "recipe" on some of them. I still remember back in the day, it was mostly breading and hardly any filling. Now they have all of these different flavors and there is more Filling in them. I dont eat them a whole lot, but Hotpockets are really good now.
My Favorite is 4-Cheese.
I used to love BBQ Pork but it seems like thats been discontinued...
Or one of their "Limited Editions, I thought the Cuban was amazing.
And they had a Breakfast one with "Pancake Crust" Tasted like Syrup, and it was HEAVEN
ooh I could go for one of those breakfast ones. That sounds yummy. Also the BBQ ones sounds amazing. I'll have to keep an eye out for it.
Nah, they definitely have changed in more recent times then say oh idk 20ish years ago. And thanks Renalt for necroing a decent thread.
I haven't had a Hot Pocket in years. Do they actually taste like food now?
Depends on your definition of "Food"
Because hey, who knows if anything we are fed is even food anymore with how heavily Processed things are nowadays. (And then Veganism trying to get ahold of the food industry)
But, I think HotPockets have gotten better since...years ago XD
*heat hot pocket up in a microwave for a min*
*drop that pocket in a deep fryer or hot oil for a bit*
*take it out and let it cool*
I can feel my arteries clog up eating it but man, I can't eat a hot pocket unless it's properly fried to a golden brown crust on the outside and gooey cheese on the inside now! It's one of those things you treat yourself to once in a while.
I'm the same way with cheap frozen burritos. I'm surprised my heart and arteries are as good as they are with the amount of fried food I used to eat.
Okay.. recipe time!

Kacho's Simple Peppercorn Burgers
INGREDIENTS
2 lbs ground beef
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon salt
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
5 tablespoons black pepper, coarsely cracked
6 slices sharp cheddar cheese
6 kaiser rolls, split
DIRECTIONS
1. Mix all ingredients except pepper, cheese and rolls.
2. Shape mixture into 6 patties, about 3/4 inch thick.
3. Press 3/4 teaspoons of the pepper into each side of the patty.
4. Cover and refrigerate 2 hours before grilling.
5. Heat grill.
6. Grill patties uncovered about 4 inches from medium heat 12 to 17 minutes, turning once, until no longer pink in center and juices run clear.
7. Top each burger with cheese slice for last 2 minutes of grilling.
8. Serve burgers on rolls.
An interesting variation is to cook the burgers in a skillet, blackening* the patties with the peppercorns, and topping the cooked burger with blue cheese, and carmelized onions, instead of sharp cheddar cheese
*Open the windows and get the fans running! The air gets quite smokey and spicy! My wife says I'm tear gassing the apartment whenever I make the burgers this way*
:D
Now I wanna make burgers sometime when I have a day off.
If anyone is interested, here's a standard blackening spices mix. I just mix everything in a glass bowl and store it in an airtight container.
- 1 ½ tablespoons paprika
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon onion powder
- 1 tablespoon ground dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
My homies, I know its not a burger but if you like lentils and curry, give this a try, I ate it a week straight:

So carrot bacon exists.
Ideally, caramelized and turned into bacon is how I would deal with all of my enemies.
Hope you like these because I can kill off a whole box of these easier than I'd like to admit.
