Categories     Meat

Time 45m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 lbs ground beef
3/4 cup caesar-flavor croutons (herb and garlic, crushed)
1 egg
3 tablespoons bacon bits
2 tablespoons deli prepared hot mustard
2 tablespoons minced garlic
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon onion powder
3 tablespoons cattleman's classic barbecue sauce
1 tablespoon hy's seasoning salt
1/4 cup maple syrup
1/4 cup crumbled blue cheese
mesquite wood chips, soaked

Steps:

  • Assemble ingredients in a mixing bowl and mix using a fork, until this is very well combined.
  • Form into patties approximately 3.5" diameter, 3/4" thick, squaring the edges so that they are not overcooked.
  • Set the patties in the fridge for one hour.
  • Heat BBQ to high , then reduce heat on one side to minimum, the other to half capacity.
  • Dump soaked mesquite chips on hot side of grill, allow them to come to a flame.
  • Place burgers on the grill allowing a sear mark to develop, then rotate 90 degrees for a "thatched" appearance.
  • Close grill hood, and allow burgers to slow cook --
  • Flip the burgers and close the hood again.
  • Use a meat thermomemter to prove "doneness" as rge smoke and the sugars in the ingredients will give colouring that will confuse you otherwise-aim for about 175 degrees --
  • Served with sliced refridgerator dill pickles, garden fresh tomato slices, sliced white onion, on a toasted sourdough bun.

HOMEMADE HAMBURGER BUNS



Homemade Hamburger Buns image

I've gotten a thousand request for these. We're going to make our own, and not only are these going to be the perfect shape, they're going to taste way better than anything that comes out of a plastic bag. The total time takes almost 4 hours, but the actual amount of work involved is maybe 10 minutes.

Time 3h45m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast (such as Fleischmann's ActiveDry Yeast®)
1 pound all-purpose flour, or as needed - divided
1 cup warm water (105 degrees F/41 degrees C)
1 large egg
3 tablespoons butter, melted
3 tablespoons white sugar
1 ¼ teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 egg, beaten
1 tablespoon milk
1 teaspoon sesame seeds, or as needed

Steps:

  • Line a baking sheet with a silicone mat or parchment paper.
  • Place yeast into bowl of a large stand mixer; whisk in 1/2 cup flour and warm water until smooth. Let stand until mixture is foamy, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Whisk 1 egg, melted butter, sugar, and salt thoroughly into yeast mixture. Add remaining flour (about 3 cups).
  • Fit a dough hook onto stand mixer and knead the dough on low speed until soft and sticky, 5 to 6 minutes. Scrape sides if needed. Poke and prod the dough with a silicone spatula; if large amounts of dough stick to the spatula, add a little more flour.
  • Transfer dough onto a floured work surface; dough will be sticky and elastic but not stick to your fingers. Form the dough lightly into a smooth, round shape, gently tucking loose ends underneath.
  • Wipe out stand mixer bowl, drizzle olive oil into the bowl, and turn dough over in the bowl several times to coat surface thinly with oil. Cover bowl with aluminum foil. Let dough rise in a warm place until doubled, about 2 hours.
  • Transfer dough to a floured work surface and pat to flatten bubbles and form into a slightly rounded rectangle of dough about 5x10 inches and about 1/2 inch thick. Dust dough lightly with flour if needed. Cut dough into 8 equal pieces. Form each piece into a round shape, gently tucking ends underneath as before.
  • Use your hands to gently pat and stretch the dough rounds into flat disc shapes about 1/2 inch thick. Arrange buns about 1/2 inch apart on prepared baking sheet. Dust buns very lightly with flour. Drape a piece of plastic wrap over the baking sheet (do not seal tightly). Let buns rise until doubled, about 1 hour.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Beat 1 egg with milk in a small bowl, using a fork, until mixture is thoroughly combined. Very gently and lightly brush tops of buns with egg wash without deflating the risen dough. Sprinkle each bun with sesame seeds.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned on top, 15 to 17 minutes. Buns will stick together slightly where they touch. Let cool completely, tear the buns apart, and slice in half crosswise to serve.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ground beef for the best flavor. Look for beef that is at least 80% lean.
  • Season the beef patties generously with salt and pepper. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
  • Don't overwork the beef patties. Overworking the beef will make them tough.
  • Cook the beef patties over medium-high heat. This will help to create a nice crust on the outside of the patties while keeping the inside juicy.
  • Flip the beef patties only once during cooking. Flipping the beef patties too often will make them dry.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the beef patties are cooked to your desired doneness.
  • Let the beef patties rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help to keep the juices in the patties.
