Good burger recipes?

[Hondaracer]

Anyone got any killer burger recipes for making patties from scratch? Was watching the food network last night and now I'm fiending for some crazy good burgers LOL

[Supafly]

add some premium crackers instead of bread crumbs....cut up a cheese string stick into cubes and put a small cube into each pattie....

other ingred. are secrets of the trade. hahahha

or if you're brave, use bacon meat instead of beef....hahahaha

[hamsup]

usually if you put a bad of butter in the burger.. its melts through the burger while being grilled...

I usually mix the butter with parsley, garlic, maybe even some cheese... mix together.. pour it out on top of plastic wrap.. and form a log.. put it in the freezer so you can cut it out ..

I think I'm gonna try what I saw on tv yesterday, a guy had a big chunk of cheese in the middle of the patty, a hidden suprise

never ever ever ever pat down on ur burger while grilling. this will cause all the juices to drain out from ur burger. whcih makes totaly sense when i was watching the food channel.

[woob]

yeah patting down a burger is stupid. Dunno what the rationale is for doing it in the first place.

[aznrsx1979]

I make mine with chopped onions, chopped mushrooms, black pepper, worshtishire sauce and crushed garlic

[Great68]

- A pound of meat. My favourite is Sirloin, or a 1/2 sirloing 1/2 chuck mix
- 1/2 an onion, minced
- 3-4 cloves garlic minced
- Fresh cracked pepper - No such thing as too much pepper
- Salt
- Chili Powder
- Little bit of Ground Cumin
- Dried oregano


Simple tastes best, and in my opinion bread crumbs or egg should NOT go into burgers. I find eggs toughen up the burgers.

Last night I did the following

Crushed triscuits
Chopped onion
Chopped jalepenos
BBQ sauce
Worsishire sauce
Salt
Pepper
Garlic

Then I made 2 thin patties put cheese in the middle and formed them around it

The jalepenos give the burgers an awsome kick

I just made a simple recipe using....
1 lb regular ground beef
1/2 onion, chopped
about 2tbsp Worcestershire
2-3tbsp Teriyaki marinade
pinch of salt
like 10 Premium Plus crackers crushed
2 slices processed cheese

Basically, bring everything together, and let it sit for about 5 minutes. Form 4 balls of about even size and make patties with cheese in between them. Then, on the stove, 5 minutes per side in a saute pan at medium-high heat. Take it out of the pan, and toss it in the oven covered in tinfoil on a sheet for 10 minutes at 250 degrees.

For me I kinda burned it since it was my first time putting together that recipe, and I found it not cooking internally but it's pretty good. Anyone got advice on preventing bad burning cooking burgers on the stove?

[Bonka]

Equal parts lean ground beef and ground veal
Finely chopped shallots
Finely chopped onions
Minced garlic
Worcestershire sauce
Garlic powder
Celery salt
Butter
Fresh ground black pepper
Grainy and/or dijon mustard
Mayonnaise

I'm thinking of working in pork belly for the next bbq

[Vansterdam]

im gona try the last 3 recipes soon

[Hondaracer]

can u go to like safeway and buy a good prime rib roast or somthing and get them to grind it up?

[CorneringArtist]

Should be able to, it's probably like asking to have beef cut into smaller pieces.

[Marioo1991]

Mix in Teriyaki sauce, granny smith apple chunks, garlic, sweet onion, ground pork and then on the bun top it off with a sliced pineapple. so good..

You can but you want beef with a high fat content for the best taste. Low fat burgers end up dry. Most people say chuck is the best cut of beef for burgers.

[Hondaracer]

^ so get like a chuck roast ground up? That would probably be best?

Stores already have chuck ground up for use.
