LITTLE TAVERN SHOPS HAMBURGERS



Little Tavern Shops Hamburgers image

Little Tavern Shops is a defunct chain of hamburger restaurants in Baltimore, Maryland, and Washington, D.C that appears to be on the cusp of a revival. The slogan of the chain was "Buy 'em by the bag", and its signs promised "Cold drinks * Good Coffee". The stores were quite small and could accommodate only a few seated customers, while most business was take-out. This recipe is posted in response to a HUGE forum discussion. If you wish to make larger patties, roll the meat into 1.7 ounce meatballs and cook as directed.

Time 25m

Yield 8 mini-hamburgers

Number Of Ingredients 5

8 ounces hamburger, rolled into 1-ounce balls
4 teaspoons dehydrated onion, reconstituted in warm water
salt and pepper, to taste
hamburger dills, slices
8 dinner rolls, sliced

Steps:

  • Place meat balls in a hot pan or flat-top griddle.
  • Add a good pinch of the onions to the top of each meat ball (about 1/2 teaspoon each).
  • Smash each meat ball flat with a spatula and cook for a minute or so.
  • Flip each burger, add salt and pepper to taste.
  • If you wish, toast/fry the split rolls in the burger grease as the meat is cooking (this is optional).
  • Remove rolls from grill and place a slice of pickle on each one.
  • Once the burgers are cooked (they are very small, it won't take any time at all) place one on each roll.
  • At the restaurant, the burgers were put in a steamer drawer to hold until sale. You may have to come up with some sort of steaming device. Try paper towels or "Handiwipe" towels, soaked in water (and squeezed out to "damp"), to cover the burgers while in the steamer drawer.
  • Serve with condiments of your choice.

Tips for Making the Best Little Tavern Hamburgers

* **Use high-quality ground beef.** This is the most important ingredient in your burgers, so don't skimp. Look for ground beef that is at least 80% lean, and make sure it is fresh. * **Season the beef well.** Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder to season the beef. You can also add other spices or herbs, such as cumin, chili powder, or paprika. * **Don't overmix the beef.** Overmixing the beef will make the burgers tough. Mix the beef just until the ingredients are combined. * **Form the burgers into patties.** Use a burger press or your hands to form the beef into patties. The patties should be about 1/2 inch thick and 4 inches wide. * **Cook the burgers over medium heat.** Cook the burgers over medium heat for about 4 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through. * **Toast the buns.** Toasting the buns will help them hold up to the juicy burgers. Toast the buns in a toaster or on a griddle. * **Add your favorite toppings.** Add your favorite toppings to the burgers, such as cheese, lettuce, tomato, and onion. You can also add condiments, such as ketchup, mustard, and mayonnaise.
