Le Grande Patty Melt with Habanero Mushroom-Onion Gravy

Yeah, I was hungry...

First, a giant hunk of lean hamburger, laced with S&P, hab powder and Worcestershire.

Cooked to just about medium-well.

Then the fixin's: onions, mushrooms, orange hab, and Mozz.

Took off the burger and set aside to rest and topped it with the cheese.

Corralled the veggies into the burger grease with a shot of Vino, a sprinkle of chile powder, the obligatory sea salt + lots of black pepper and granulated garlic and let it cook a minute.

Then, used flour and beef stock to turn it into a nice rich gravy...

I say mega-WIN on the sauce alone! Nicely done Quad. Looks fantastic. The only thing I would have maybe done differently is toast the bread.
