Categories     main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

Canola oil, for greasing grill
3 pounds organic prime ground beef chuck (preferably grass-fed)
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons salted butter
1 1/2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
6 English muffins, split
1 large beefsteak tomato, cut into 6 slices

Steps:

  • Prepare a charcoal grill and position the rack 4 inches above medium-high heat, or heat a gas grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill.
  • Form the beef into 6 patties, about 3 1/2 inches in diameter, and sprinkle on both sides with the salt and pepper. Grill the burgers, charring well on both sides, until almost but not quite as done as desired, 3 to 4 minutes per side for medium-rare. (Gas grills may require 1 to 2 minutes more total cooking.) Transfer the burgers to a rack to rest for 5 minutes. Top each burger with about 1/2 tablespoon of the butter and a sprinkling of the chopped parsley. Meanwhile, toast the English Muffins on the grill for 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Reheat the burgers on the grill for about 1 minute. Serve them on the toasted English muffins, topped with the tomato slices.

Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 burgers

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 pounds ground beef
1 teaspoon canola oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
8 slices sharp Cheddar
4 potato hamburger buns
4 leaves Bibb lettuce
2 teaspoons red wine vinegar
2 teaspoons olive oil
4 slices tomato
6 tablespoons Special Sauce, recipe follows
4 kosher dill half-sour pickle spears
1/2 cup spiced ketchup, such as Sir Kensington's
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup finely minced cornichons
1 tablespoon prepared horseradish
1 teaspoon finely minced shallots
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Place a small piece of plastic wrap inside of a 4-inch ring cutter. Place about 8 ounces of the ground beef onto the plastic and lightly press into the mold just to flatten a touch. Repeat with the remainder of the ground beef.
  • In a cast-iron pan, heat the oil until it begins to smoke. Sprinkle the burger patties lightly with salt and pepper and place into the hot pan. Sear the burgers, about 4 minutes, on one side. Flip and top each with 2 slices of the cheese. For medium rare, cook another 4 minutes on the other side. Remove the burgers from the pan and rest the meat, 10 minutes.
  • In the meantime, toast the buns; place them cut-side down in the hot pan until lightly golden brown. In a medium bowl, toss the lettuce leaves with the red wine vinegar, olive oil and some salt and pepper.
  • To assemble, place a burger atop the bottom half of each bun, top with a lettuce leaf and slice of tomato. Spread each bun top with some Special Sauce, and then serve with a pickle spear.
  • Combine the ketchup, mayonnaise, cornichons, horseradish and shallots together and season with some salt and pepper.

ULTIMATE SUMMER PLT BURGER

Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 burgers

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
Juice of 1/2 a lemon
1/2 cup tarragon, chopped
1/4 cup chives, sliced
1/4 cup Italian parsley, chopped
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
1 1/2 pounds ground sirloin (80/20 ratio)
4 ounces sliced pancetta
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
4 potato buns
8 slices Muenster cheese
1 yellow or red heirloom tomato, sliced into 1/2-thick slices
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
2 heads baby gem lettuce

Steps:

  • For the herb mayo: Combine the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, fresh lemon juice, tarragon, chives and parsley in a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Stir until well blended.
  • For the burgers: Divide the ground beef into four equal portions. Gently form each portion into patties 1 to 1 1/2 inches thick and 3 to 4 inches in diameter. Do not over work or tightly pack the meat or the burgers will not be tender. Place on a plate or sheet tray and bring to room temperature.
  • Heat a large saute pan over medium heat. Take the slices of pancetta and place them in the pan. Begin to render the pancetta on both sides, 3 to 4 minutes, rotating the pancetta until golden brown and crispy. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels and let cool. Reserve the pancetta fat in the pan and use as a fat substitute instead of butter to toast the buns in.
  • Brush a griddle with the pancetta fat and preheat to medium-high heat.
  • Sprinkle the burgers on each side with salt and pepper. Place the burgers on the brushed and heated griddle and cook 4 to 5 minutes each side for medium rare.
  • Brush the buns with pancetta fat and toast on the griddle until golden brown.
  • When the burgers are almost finished, top each with 2 slices of the cheese and cook for 2 to 4 minutes. Take the burgers off the griddle and let rest.
  • Mix the tomato slices with the vinegar and season with salt and pepper.
  • Spread the herbed mayonnaise on the buns. Top with lettuce, tomato, a burger and a piece of pancetta.

Tips:

  • For the perfect burger patty, use a blend of 80% ground chuck and 20% ground brisket. This ratio provides a good balance of flavor and juiciness.
  • Season the burger patties generously with salt and pepper. You can also add other spices and herbs, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or smoked paprika, to taste.
  • When cooking the burger patties, make sure to preheat your grill or pan over medium-high heat. This will help to sear the outside of the burgers and keep them juicy on the inside.
  • Cook the burger patties for 4-5 minutes per side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 160 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-rare, 165 degrees Fahrenheit for medium, or 170 degrees Fahrenheit for well-done.
  • Let the burger patties rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help to redistribute the juices and make the burgers more flavorful.
  • Serve the burger patties on toasted buns with your favorite toppings, such as cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, and pickles.
