Dad isn't the only one whose got jokes.
From teaching you how to ride a bike to showing you how to change a tire, dads can do it all! They also have a special sense of humor known as dad jokes.
What's a dad joke, you ask? It's that pun-laden, groan-worthy, roll your eyes while you laugh type of humor that dads are best at delivering.
To celebrate Dad, the Real TALL Real Estate Team is sharing some REALLY bad Dad jokes, some fun events & ideas to do with Dad this weekend, and maybe a recipe or two so you can out-grill the Grill Master.

Mushroom and Beef Blended Burgers for the Grill
Mushroom blended burgers are not only a more eco-friendly choice, but with the right mix of mushroom and veggies, can be a super-flavorful alternative to the typical 100% beef patty. This recipe from Food Network Kitchen is made with mushrooms and sweet potato, and is served with bold toppings like charred poblanos and grilled scallion mayo.

Ingredients
- 4 ounces sweet potato, peeled and diced (from 1/2 small sweet potato)
- 4 ounces cremini mushrooms, trimmed and quartered
- 1 pound ground beef (20 percent lean)
- 1 large egg, lightly beaten
- 2 teaspoons cornstarch
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1 bunch scallions (about 6 small)
- 1 medium poblano, halved lengthwise, stem and seeds removed
- 1 tablespoon canola oil, plus more for the grill grates
- 4 seeded hamburger buns, split
- 4 slices pepper jack cheese (about 2 ounces)
- 1/3 cup mayonnaise

Directions
- Preheat a grill for medium-high heat.
- Pulse the sweet potato in a food processor until evenly and finely chopped, scraping down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula as needed, about 10 pulses. Transfer to a large bowl. Pulse the mushrooms in the food processor until evenly and finely chopped, scraping down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula as needed, about 8 pulses. Add to the sweet potato along with the ground beef, egg, cornstarch, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper, then mix with your hands until combined. Form the meat mixture into 4 patties, each about 4 inches in diameter. Season each side with a good pinch of salt and a few good grinds of pepper; set aside.
- Toss the scallions and poblano with the oil. Grill the scallions until lightly charred, turning halfway through with grilling tongs, 1 to 2 minutes.

- Transfer to a cutting board. Grill the poblano, turning occasionally, until charred all over and tender, about 8 minutes. Transfer to cutting board. Grill the hamburger buns until lightly toasted and have some grill marks, about 30 seconds. Transfer to a serving platter.
- Brush the grill grates with some oil. Place the patties on the grill and cook, undisturbed (and with the grill uncovered), until the first side has developed nice grill marks, 3 1/2 to 4 minutes. Carefully flip the burgers with a metal spatula and continue to cook until well browned all over, about 2 minutes more. Top each burger with 1 slice of cheese, then cover and cook until the cheese has melted and the burger has reached medium doneness, about 1 minute more. Transfer to the bottom bun halves.
- Thinly slice the scallions and place in a small bowl. Stir in the mayonnaise, lime zest and juice, a good pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper. Spread the mixture on the top bun halves. Thinly sliced the poblano, then divide among the burgers. Top evenly with the pickled jalapenos and lettuce. Sandwich with the top bun halves.
