Time 8h40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1/2 cup fresh lemon juice (from 2 to 3 lemons)
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/3 cup jarred jerk sauce
2 tablespoons Cajun seasoning
1 to 2 tablespoons red pepper flakes
1 small red bell pepper, finely chopped
1 large jalapeno pepper, seeded and finelychopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 carrots, cut into 3-inch sticks
1 medium zucchini, cut into 3-inch sticks
1 small red bell pepper, cut into 3-inch strips
Kosher salt
Canola oil, for the grill
2 pounds ground beef chuck
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
4 sesame hamburger buns, split

Steps:

  • Make the jerk sauce: Whisk the lemon juice, olive oil, jarred jerk sauce, Cajun seasoning and red pepper flakes in a bowl until combined. Stir in the bell pepper, jalapeno and garlic; cover and refrigerate overnight.
  • Make the vegetables: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. Add the carrots, zucchini and bell pepper, season with salt and cook, tossing occasionally, until slightly softened, about 5 minutes. Add 1/4 cup of the prepared jerk sauce and cook until the vegetables are glazed, 1 to 2 more minutes. Remove from the heat and cover to keep warm.
  • Grill the burgers: Preheat a grill to medium high and brush the grates with canola oil. Form the beef into four 3/4-inch-thick patties and season generously with salt and pepper. Grill about 4 minutes per side for medium rare. Meanwhile, lightly toast the buns on the grill.
  • Serve the burgers on the buns; top with the sauteed vegetables.

Categories     main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 pounds lean ground sirloin
1/3 pound smoked Gouda cheese, diced into 1/4 to 1/2-inch cubes
1 medium onion or 1/2 large onion
2 teaspoons smoked sweet paprika, 2/3 palm full
1 teaspoon ground cumin, 1/3 palm full
Grill seasoning (recommended: Montreal Steak Seasoning)
Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 cloves garlic, grated or finely chopped
Generous handful finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 (12-ounce) bottle beer
Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling
1/2 cup spicy brown mustard
1/4 to 1/3 cup sour cream
2 to 3 tablespoons chopped fresh dill or 1 teaspoon dried dill
4 crusty Kaiser rolls, split and lightly toasted
Green or red leaf lettuce, for topping
Sliced sweet bread and butter pickles, for topping

Steps:

  • Preheat grill over medium-high heat.
  • Place the meat in a bowl and add the cheese. Peel the onion and halve it, if using the medium onion. Grate about 3 to 4 tablespoons of onion directly over the meat into the bowl. Finely chop the remaining onion and reserve for topping. Add spices to meat: paprika, cumin and about 1 tablespoon of grill seasoning and/or some salt and pepper. Add garlic, parsley and Worcestershire and beer then form 4 large patties making them a little thinner at the center than at edges. Burgers plump when you cook them so this will prevent burger bulge. Drizzle a little olive oil over the burgers then grill about 4 minutes on each side for medium rare, 5 minutes on each side for medium and 6 to 7 minutes on each side for well done.
  • Mix mustard and sour cream with dill.
  • Serve patties on bun bottoms and top with lettuce, pickles, chopped raw onion. Slather bun tops with sauce and serve.

Time 50m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 36

1 pound ground chuck
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 1/2 teaspoons ground allspice
1 1/2 teaspoons cayenne pepper
1 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 1/2 teaspoons onion powder
1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano
1 1/2 teaspoons red pepper flakes
1 1/2 teaspoons light brown sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons dried thyme
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Nonstick cooking spray, for the pan
8 standard slices mild Cheddar
8 brioche slider buns
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Jerk Ketchup, recipe follows
8 Red Ale Onion Rings, recipe follows
1 cup ketchup
Juice of 1 lime
1 teaspoon ground allspice
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
About 4 cups canola oil
2 large Vidalia onions
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 cup red ale
Coarse sea salt

Steps:

  • Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat.
  • Combine the beef, salt, allspice, cayenne, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, pepper flakes, brown sugar, thyme and black pepper in a large bowl and gently mix until just combined.
  • Form the meat into eight 2-ounce patties, then press the center of each with your thumb to create an indent. Coat the grill pan with cooking spray.
  • Grill the sliders indent-side up until the internal temperature registers 150 degrees F, 2 to 3 minutes per side, placing a slice of cheese on each patty once you flip them. Cover the patties on the grill pan with a metal bowl to allow the cheese to melt. (The cheese will melt over the sides of the patties.) Remove the patties to a plate and cover loosely with foil to rest.
  • Meanwhile, brush the buns with the melted butter and grill until lightly toasted, about 2 minutes per side.
  • Assemble the sliders by putting a tablespoon-sized dollop of the Ketchup on the bun tops and bottoms, then top each bottom with a patty. Finish with one Onion Ring on top of each slider. Close sliders and serve immediately.
  • Combine the ketchup, lime juice, allspice, cayenne, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, pepper flakes, brown sugar, thyme and salt in a medium nonreactive bowl and mix until incorporated.
  • Pour 4 inches oil into an 8-quart Dutch oven and bring to 350 degrees F over medium-high heat.
  • Meanwhile, peel the onions and slice into 1/2-inch-thick rings.
  • Combine the flour, salt, garlic powder and black pepper in a large bowl. Whisk in the ale until the ingredients are combined. The batter should be thick but slightly loose.
  • Place a wire rack in a sheet pan. Working in batches, dip the onion rings into the batter. Drain any excess batter back into the bowl, then slowly lower the onions into the hot oil. Cook, flipping the onions every 30 seconds, until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer the onions to a wire rack with a spider and lightly season with sea salt.

Categories     Beans

Time 23m

Yield 4 burgers, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 (15 ounce) can great northern beans, rinsed & drained
1 cup plain breadcrumbs
1/4 cup onion, finely chopped
1 egg, slightly beaten
3 tablespoons skim milk or 3 tablespoons soymilk
1 garlic clove, minced
1 teaspoon jamaican jerk seasoning
1/4 teaspoon salt
nonstick cooking spray
4 hamburger buns, whole wheat
red onion, slices (4)
tomatoes, slices cut thick (4)

Steps:

  • Mash beans with a fork until smooth. Stir in bread crumbs, chopped onion, egg, milk, minced garlic, jerk seasoning, and salt; mix well. Shape into 4 patties.
  • Heat a skillet over medium heat and spray with cooking spray. Cook patties until browned, turning once, about 8 minutes total.
  • Serve on buns, topped with tomato and onion, and any other condiments of you like.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ground beef: Opt for 80/20 ground chuck or sirloin for a juicy and flavorful burger.
  • Season the beef well: Don't be shy with the Caribbean-inspired spices like jerk seasoning, allspice, and thyme. These flavors will shine through in the final burger.
  • Shape the burgers gently: Overworking the beef can result in tough burgers. Handle the meat gently and form it into patties without over-compacting.
  • Cook the burgers over medium-high heat: This will create a nice crust on the outside while keeping the inside juicy and tender.
  • Make the jerk ketchup ahead of time: This sauce can be made up to 5 days in advance, allowing the flavors to meld and deepen.
  • Use a light hand with the beer batter: The batter should be thin enough to coat the onion rings without weighing them down.
  • Fry the onion rings until golden brown: Keep a close eye on the onion rings as they fry, adjusting the heat as needed to prevent burning.

Conclusion:

This Caribbean-style burger with jerk ketchup and beer-battered onions is a flavorful and satisfying meal that combines the best of Caribbean and American cuisine.
