Dear Food Network, Please Stop
When I first saw this post, I was ready to defend FN to my death if need be. But then I read the article and all the great posts and realized, everyone's absolutely right. FN is one of my favorite channels, but I'm find myself less and less enthused over their new shows, let alone all the re-runs. The once bright stars seem to be getting lost in their on-set personality. Anyone who watched the original Paula Deen will understand - all she seems to do is laugh annoyingly and say "y'all" ALL THE TIME.
There are some saving graces - I'll watch Alton Brown and Triple D until the Sun goes down, but that's more for entertainment than actual cooking tips. The actual cooking shows seem are on when I'm either at work or out and about.
Ah well, I've got Anthony and Andrew over on Travel Channel.
How should burgers be cooked?
Oh wow - the "how should a burger really be cooked" debate. That's like asking who's kid is cuter - mine or yours. I think it all comes down to preference and what goes on the burger. The bun observation is spot on, though. It can really ruin a good burger, no matter how cooked or what's on top of the paddie. Personally, how I have it cooked all depends on where I'm eating. Some places cook a mean well-done burger while others get the medium-rare to a perfection. Now, if you asked how a steak should be cooked, I'd argue medium-rare no matter where you go.

I'm in the midst of planning my own wedding and the food is the most important aspect for my fiance and I. In the end it's what everyone remembers (or at least I do). It's not the dress or the speeches - it's whether you enjoyed the meal and the cake. For me, sit-down is the way to go. Hor d'oeuvres and cocktails are for after the ceremony and before the reception to keep your guests happy before they can get to the big meal.
