I'm not sure. We have some leftovers that I need to clean up and I've got all the stuff I put off while on "chair rest".

Those chicken burgers sound pretty good, losblanos! I don't have the grilling books. Any chance you could post that recipe for me?
We had garlic shrimp, zucchini fritters and a salad for dinner.

Blend together 1/4 cup mayonnaise, basil, lemon juice, honey, salt and pepper in a food processer until smooth; Set aside.
Mix together chicken, relish, 1/4 cup mayonnaise, salt & pepper in a bowl. Gently shape the meat into 4 patties slightly larger than bread to allow for shrinkage.
