HERB BUTTER-STUFFED BURGERS



Herb Butter-Stuffed Burgers image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h

Yield 4 burgers

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley
1 small clove garlic, grated
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 1/2 pounds ground beef
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
4 slices Jarlsberg cheese (about 4 ounces)
4 brioche buns, split
Dijon mustard, sliced onion, sliced tomatoes, butter lettuce and cornichons, for serving

Steps:

  • Make the herb butter: Mix the butter, parsley, garlic, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a small bowl. Transfer to a piece of plastic wrap and form into a 4-inch log. Wrap and freeze until firm enough to slice, about 20 minutes. Slice the butter log into 8 rounds.
  • Make the burgers: Preheat a grill to medium high. Divide the ground beef into 4 mounds, place a slice of butter on each, then gently shape the beef around the butter to enclose. Press the beef into four 4-inch-wide patties (about 1/2 inch thick). Refrigerate until ready to grill. Set aside the remaining butter for serving.
  • Season the burgers on both sides with salt and pepper. Grill until well marked, 3 minutes. Flip and top each with a slice of cheese. Cook 3 more minutes for medium rare, covering during the last 15 seconds to melt the cheese. Grill the buns until toasted.
  • Spread the remaining herb butter on the bottom buns. Serve the burgers on the buns with mustard, onion, tomatoes and lettuce. Skewer cornichons on toothpicks and insert into each burger.

No more dry, lackluster burgers. These are juicy, and spices can be easily added or changed to suit anyone's taste. Baste frequently with your favorite barbeque sauce. If you find the meat mixture too mushy, just add more bread crumbs until it forms patties that hold their shape.

  • Butter will keep for up to 5 days in the refrigerator or up to 3 months in the freezer.
  • Burger Preparation: Make hamburger patties as usual, but for each one place your thumb in the middle and press an indentation almost through (but not quite) to the other side of the meat.
  • Unwrap formed butter and cut crosswise into 1/4-1/2" discs. (You will be using approximately 4 tablespoons Herb-Garlic Butter per 1 1/2 pound of ground meat).
  • Form hamburger patty fully around one butter disc, pressing gently to seal the disc into the dead center of the meat.

THE BEST HAMBURGER RECIPE (AND AMAZING SECRET SAUCE)



The Best Hamburger Recipe (and amazing secret sauce) image

Yield 5

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pound ground beef (I used 80/20 - fattier meat means a juicier burger!)
1/2 cup shredded Monterey jack cheese
1/4 cup BBQ sauce
1/4 teaspoon seasoned salt
pepper, to taste
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
3/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup ketchup
1/4 cup pickle relish
2 Tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
5 hamburger buns (we like sesame seed buns)

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, shredded cheese, bbq sauce, and seasonings. Don't add too much bbq sauce or the patties will have a hard time taking shape. Shape patties that are about 1 inch thick (about 5 patties). (You can also freeze the patties after shaping them for about 1 hour to help them hold their shape.)
  • Turn grill up to high and let it get hot.
  • Reduce heat to medium-high and place the burgers on the grill. Allow this side of the patty to cook for about 4-6 minutes, but make sure it does not burn. Then flip the burger over and cook until done.
  • For the sauce, combine all sauce ingredients and whisk until well mixed. Taste and adjust ingredients to your liking.
  • Assemble the burgers and serve with the special sauce and other hamburger toppings of choice.

Tips:

  • Use fresh herbs. Fresh herbs provide the best flavor for this recipe. If you don't have fresh herbs, you can use dried herbs, but you'll need to use about 1/3 of the amount called for in the recipe.
  • Don't overcook the burgers. Hamburgers are best when they are cooked to medium-rare or medium. Overcooked burgers are dry and tough.
  • Use a good quality bun. The bun is an important part of the hamburger experience. Choose a bun that is soft and fluffy, and that will hold up to the juicy burger.
  • Add your favorite toppings. There are endless possibilities when it comes to toppings for hamburgers. Some popular choices include cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, and ketchup.

Conclusion:

Saucy herb hamburgers are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that are perfect for any occasion. With fresh herbs, a juicy burger, and your favorite toppings, these burgers are sure to be a hit. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give these saucy herb hamburgers a try.
