GAME DAY BURGERS

Provided by Giada De Laurentiis

Time 45m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 red onion, sliced into 1/3-inch rounds
1 teaspoon olive oil
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1/2 teaspoon sugar
2 ripe avocados, pitted and diced
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
2 pounds ground chuck (80/20 meat to fat)
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
6 thin slices provolone piccante
2 cups arugula
6 potato hamburger buns, toasted
2 tomatoes, sliced thin, optional

Steps:

  • For the onions: Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat.
  • Drizzle the onion slices with the olive oil and sprinkle with the salt. Place in the hot grill pan and cook, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove to a bowl and toss with the balsamic and sugar. Cover the bowl with a piece of plastic wrap and let steam at room temperature for about 10 minutes.
  • For the avocado: Mash together the avocado, lemon juice, salt and pepper flakes in a medium bowl.
  • For the burgers: Heat the grill pan over medium-high heat. Form the beef into 6 even patties (about 1/3 pound each). Sprinkle the patties evenly on both sides with salt and place in the grill pan. Grill until nicely browned, about 2 minutes on the first side. Flip the burgers and cook for an additional 2 minutes. Place a slice of cheese on top of each burger and cover with a bowl or lid to allow the cheese to melt. Cook to desired doneness, about 1 minute longer for medium.
  • Place a small amount of arugula on the bottom half of each toasted bun. Top with the patties, tomatoes, if using, and the grilled balsamic onions. Spread some of the avocado on the top half of the buns and close the burgers.

Time 40m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 pound ground beef chuck
1 (8 ounce) package shredded Cheddar cheese
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
1 (1 ounce) package dry onion soup mix
24 (2 inch square) dinner rolls, split

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • In a medium bowl, thoroughly mix ground beef chuck, Cheddar cheese, mayonnaise and dry onion soup mix.
  • Spread even amounts of the ground beef onto the bottom half of each roll. Place top halves on, forming little sandwiches. If you purchased the rolls in aluminum foil pans, you may return them to the same pan for baking. Otherwise, place them on a baking sheet or baking pan. Cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil.
  • Bake for 30 to 35 minutes in the preheated oven, or until meat is cooked through.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Meat: Select high-quality ground beef with a fat content of 80/20 or 85/15. This ratio provides a juicy and flavorful burger.
  • Season Wisely: Don't be afraid to experiment with seasonings. A classic combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder works well, but you can also add herbs like thyme, rosemary, or oregano for extra flavor.
  • Handle with Care: Avoid overworking the meat mixture. Over-mixing can result in tough burgers. Gently combine the ingredients until just blended.
  • Shape and Chill: Form the burger patties into uniform shapes and sizes. Chilling the patties for at least 30 minutes before cooking helps them hold their shape and cook evenly.
  • Cook to Perfection: Cook the burgers over medium heat to prevent burning. Use a meat thermometer to ensure they reach an internal temperature of 160°F (70°C) for medium-rare, 165°F (74°C) for medium, or 170°F (77°C) for well-done.
  • Don't Flip Too Often: Resist the urge to flip the burgers multiple times during cooking. Flip them only once, about halfway through the cooking time, to prevent them from drying out.
  • Let Them Rest: Allow the cooked burgers to rest for a few minutes before serving. This helps the juices redistribute throughout the burger, resulting in a more tender and flavorful patty.

Conclusion:

Creating mouthwatering game-day burgers is a combination of careful ingredient selection, proper seasoning, gentle handling, and precise cooking techniques. By following these tips, you can elevate your burger game and impress your friends and family with juicy, flavorful, and perfectly cooked burgers that will be the star of any gathering. Experiment with different toppings, sauces, and sides to create a burger experience that everyone will love. Whether you prefer classic cheeseburgers, spicy jalapeño burgers, or hearty bacon-wrapped burgers, the possibilities are endless. So fire up the grill, grab your favorite buns, and let the burger-making adventure begin!
