When it’s burger night for her husband Aaron’s buds, Berg impresses her hungry diners with a no-fuss meal, serving up some juicy bison chorizo smash burgers. There is no meat without potatoes, and Berg’s deliciously warm potato salad packs a punch. As the cherry on top, Berg serves up a sweet cherry ice cream sandwich.
