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).

Time 55m

Yield 4 burgers, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 cups cabernet sauvignon wine
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 1/2 lbs lean ground beef (I use very lean, but I've read that 80% lean is better since the fat adds flavor)
1/4 cup cabernet glaze
2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper

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.

These burgers were easy to make and turned out great! The cabernet marinade added a nice depth of flavor to the beef. I served them with roasted potatoes and green beans for a complete meal.
