CABERNET BURGERS
This is the quickest and easiest way I've found to make juicy, yummy burgers. I actually make the wine glaze ahead of time and just keep it in the fridge, that way I can easily make one or two burgers without too much hassle! However, be careful in the amount you use: although the proportions in this recipe are fine, I found they don't scale down exactly, so use a bit less of the glaze if you're just making 1 or 2 burgers (i.e. don't just use one quarter or one half of what the recipe says).

Steps:
- Combine wine and brown sugar and simmer until reduced to about 1/2 - 3/4 cup (depends how potent you want the wine flavor), about 25-30 minutes. Let cool. This can be made ahead of time, or in a larger batch and stored in a bottle in the fridge.
- Combine the beef, glaze, salt and pepper and gently mix. The beef should take on a much deeper red shade from the wine.
- Shape into 4 patties, make sure to make an indent in the center with your thumb or the back of a teaspoon to compensate for the rising while cooking.
- Grill over direct high heat for about 8-10 minutes per side, turning only once. You can also brush them with some additional glaze while cooking.

Tips:
- Choose high-quality ingredients. The better the ingredients, the better the burgers will be. Look for fresh, grass-fed beef, ripe tomatoes, and crisp lettuce.
- Form the patties gently. Overworking the beef will make the burgers tough. Handle the beef gently and form the patties into loose, 1-inch thick rounds.
- Don't overcook the burgers. Cook the burgers over medium heat until they are cooked to your desired doneness. Overcooking will make the burgers dry and tough.
- Use a variety of toppings. The possibilities are endless when it comes to toppings for napa valley cabernet burgers. Some popular options include cheese, bacon, avocado, lettuce, tomato, and onion.
- Serve the burgers immediately. Napa valley cabernet burgers are best served hot off the grill. Enjoy them with your favorite sides, such as fries, onion rings, or coleslaw.
