Are you ready?
Today is the day we are putingt the condiments we have been busy making this week to good use!
On Monday, we made Ocktoberfest Beer Mustard.
Tuesday’s project was Caramelized Onions.
Wednesday was about making easy 5 second Spicy Ketchup.
And today…we add the ‘meat’ of the project…literally!
For packaging, I decided to use a plain cake box{any box will do} from the local bakery, lined with polka dot paper for the 3 condiments and….
Hamburger Sliders and Mini-Sausages!
These small-size versions of bbq classics are perfect for the midnight snack attack!
Already cooked, they can be heated easily in the microwave and then all sassed up with homemade Ocktoberfest Beer Mustard, Caramlized Onions and Spicy Ketchup!
{If you don’t have time to make condiments…don’t worry, just add store bought ones instead!}
The sliders and the mini sausages are held in simple white cupcake liners here, but
I would suggest cooking the sliders and sausages a day or two before giving the gift, and wrapping them individually in sarah wrap.
That way they won’t dry out..and Daddio can heat up his special snack when hunger strikes!
And I don’t know about your house…but my husband is often prowling around the fridge at night looking for a snack…and so I thought this “Midnight Snack Attack Pack” would be an awesome surprise for him!
The ‘Midnight Snack Attack Pack’ is tied up with some jute string and decorated with a cute label which came from Martha Stewart and can be found here.
And here we are…a great package of fun food for Dad!
I loved making this package for my husband because it contains everything that he loves!
And I hope it says, “I love you honey” {but I won’t kiss you yet because your breath is much too “spicy” for me!}.
How about you? Are you making anything special for Father’s Day?
Share the Love!
This has been a fun gift to read about this week, Angie! I know a lot of men who would be thrilled to receive a gift like this 🙂
I was just checking out the new 'fancy' refrigerated condiments from the PC Insider's Report. Very similar choices to what you whipped up 🙂 A group of these plus the sliders and sausages would be such a fun, easy gift!
You have such a way with presentation 🙂
Cute idea. I've been wanting to have a BBQ where I made all the condiments from scratch. How do you enjoy the taste?
Great project Angie!
Mmmm, I love homemade mustard, and I bet the spicy ketchup would also be a hit at our house.
That's so cute. He's sure to love it.
What a cute idea. I would like to make something but haven't quite decided what yet.
This is such a cute idea!
Lior 🙂

That is such a good idea! My husband (and teenage son) would go nuts over something like that. I'd love it if you would consider sharing it with our Summer Recipes linky party. We're two blogs sharing one combined linky party for double exposure.

What a great idea. Men are hard to give gifts too and I think this is perfect.
What a great idea! My husband is always roaming around for food late at night. I think he would love such a thoughtful gift! We'd love it if you would link up to Tasty Tuesday over at aletteredlife.blogspot.com ~Holley
No Way! I was thinking of something very similar! I made ketchup last month and was going to make mustard and bbq sauce. Love the sliders too!
Fun, original father's day idea!
