What's the Best Cheese for Cheeseburgers?
Easy:
Pimento Cheese. Melts great because of the small amount of added mayo and adds some really great flavor to the burger.

The Neely's have ANOTHER show..WTH??
They're the new generation of Food Network star, where the network owns your a$$.
In the past, you could develop your own show and your own product line, and the Food Network didn't even take a slice the pie. Now they own you and everything you do and they will make you work. Look at all the new stars, they've all got three shows each.
Matio had Molto Mario. Emeril had Essense and then Live. But the newbies like Ray, Fieri, Neely, Sunny Anderson, they're all running with two or three each.
This is the future of the Food Network ladies and gentlemen and it kinda sucks. Fine Living and Travel Channel will be picking up some of the load which could be good.

Tuna. In a Can. Love it or Hate it?
Love it.
Always buy Tonno; Italian tuna packed in olive oil. Has a million uses.
Yesterday, we made Pasta alla Carrettiera after seeing this website on Tastespotting:
Instead of anchovies, we substituted the A's Do Mar (http://www.europantry.com/store/seafood/stAsDoMarTuna.html).
Not that I don't have love for the fresh tuna, but tonno is a great product with a million uses.

My mouth dropped open when I seen they had another show. My thought is they are so hard core, demanding, strict on their show "The next food network star". Then in return they hand us the Neely's. "Cooking for Real" is right up there in the annoying category also.
What's the Best Cheese for Cheeseburgers?
I ran a little experiment yesterday with some sliders - tried Humboldt Fog (goat), Point Reyes Blue and an Old Quebec Vintage Cheddar. I did the Humboldt Fog with some caramelized onions and an arugula mayo, the Point Reyes Blue with bacon and avocado and the cheddar with basil and a BBQ mayo. The cheddar/basil/mayo was my favorite, but the others were great too!

Four year-old Shelburne Farms (Vermont) Cheddar. Cabot is good, but Shelburne Farms is truly amazing. That, some freshly ground pepper and a touch of sea salt (I occasionally use smoked sea salt, yum).
What's the Best Cheese for Cheeseburgers?
Total self-promotion, BUT...I make a cheese that's soaked in Sierra Nevada Stout, and truly the only reason I still make it is because it's one of the BEST cheeses to melt on burgers--any meat sandwich, really. It's got the meltability (think mix between gouda and cheddar), the tanginess (from the beer) and some pretty good funk, too. :)

I am seconding provolone and jalapenos. Jalapenos and burgers rock!

I love aged gruyere and never thought to use it with cheeseburgers. I also like aged provolone. I'm not big on the rubbery Kraft singles but children love it....I also made the Oprah turkey burger recipe last night and it was totally outstanding. I didn't have the Chutney so I substituted Heinz57 sauce. Wow.

Saga blue - you get meltability and funk.
What's the Best Cheese for Cheeseburgers?
Depends on the burger. If it's In-N-Out, then the real American cheese they use is perfect.
Any REAL American cheese (not rubbery Kraft singles, cheese food, etc.) will work, but if I have a choice I like a slice of Tillamook medium cheddar, especially on a "real" burger (e.g., a big thick, sit-down burger, not a fast-food type burger). Like the ones I grilled last night... mmmmmmmmm...
Oh. And on those very infrequent occasions when I indulge in a mushroom swiss burger... well... duh... Swiss! (but provolone works well too)
