Ingredients You Need for Fred’s Burger [Vegan]
For the Deadly Ingredients:
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 vegan burger patty
- Vamp Paste (page 128), to taste
- 1 vegan hamburger bun
- 2 slices vegan pepper jack cheese
- 1 piece romaine lettuce
- 1 slice tomato
- 1 tablespoon Totally ’80s Cheese Sauce (page 129)
- 1 tablespoon Sweet Onion Jam (page 130)
- 1 tablespoon Chainsaw BBQ Sauce (page 122) or BBQ sauce of choice
- 1 tablespoon minced roasted red peppers
- 1 smoking gun (or your favorite instant foodsmoking device) (see Note below)
How to Prepare Fred’s Burger [Vegan]
- Cook the burger patty according to the package instructions. Remove the burger patty from the pan and set aside.
- Spread the vamp paste on the inside of both halves of the hamburger bun. Heat a small skillet over medium heat and toast the bun, cut sides down, until the insides are golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer the bun to a plate.
- To assemble, place the burger patty on the bottom bun and top with the sliced pepper jack. Add these ingredients in this order: lettuce, tomato, cheese sauce, onion jam, and roasted red peppers. Spread the barbecue sauce on the inside of the top bun. Add the top bun.
- Place the entire burger in a plastic bag or another container, insert the tube of the smoking gun, close the container, and push smoke inside the bag or container for 1 minute.
- Serve with your favorite props (Freddy glove, fake blood—wherever your morbid imagination takes you)!
