Daddy Sized Burger

I think that Father's Day is not complete without a big burger for dad. It's funny how Mother's Day makes you think of brunch and going out to eat, but Father's Day is about grilling big food. Ok, so I am not a master on the grill, and some people are afraid of me being too close to an open flame. So, my grilling was done inside using a grill pan.
