Steps:
- For the tartar sauce: In a bowl, combine 3/4 cup mayonnaise, pickles plus brine, shallot, capers and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Refrigerate until needed.
- For the burgers: Pulse breadcrumbs in food processor until finely ground, about 15 pulses; transfer to shallow dish.
- Place a third of shrimp (1 cup), 2 tablespoons mayonnaise, 1/4 teaspoon pepper, 1/8 teaspoon salt and cayenne in now-empty processor and pulse until shrimp are finely chopped, about 8 pulses. Add remaining shrimp (2 cups) to shrimp mixture in processor and pulse until coarsely chopped, about 4 pulses, scraping down sides of bowl as needed. Transfer shrimp mixture to bowl and stir in green onions.

SOUTHERN SHRIMP BURGERS
Dry the shrimp thoroughly before processing, or the burgers will be mushy. Handle the burgers gently when shaping and grilling; if overhandled while being shaped, the burgers will be dense and rubbery, and if handled roughly during cooking, they will break apart. ATK

AMERICA'S TEST KITCHEN'S SHRIMP BURGER
I watched a video of these shrimp burgers on Tube and thought they sounded great. I'm going to make these for dinner today with red cabbage coleslaw. I'll cook the burgers on a charcoal grill but pan frying would be tasty too.

Steps:
- 1. Pulse the bread in a food processor to coarse crumbs, about 4 pulses, and transfer to a bowl (you should have about 3/4 cup crumbs). Wipe the food processor clean, and pulse the shrimp until there is an even mix of finely minced and coarsely chopped pieces, about 7 pulses. Whisk the mayonnaise, scallions, parsley, lemon zest, salt, pepper, and cayenne together in a large bowl until uniform. Gently fold into the processed shrimp and breadcrumbs until just combined. Scrape the shrimp mixture onto a small baking sheet, divide it into 4 equal portions, and loosely pack each into a 1inch-thick patty. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Tips:
- Prep your ingredients ahead of time: Chop your vegetables, measure out your spices, and cook your rice before you start assembling the burgers. This will make the process much quicker and easier.
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients you use, the better your burgers will taste. Look for fresh shrimp, crisp vegetables, and flavorful spices.
- Don't overcook the shrimp: Shrimp cooks very quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and rubbery.
- Season the shrimp patties well: Don't be afraid to experiment with different seasonings. You can use a simple salt and pepper combination, or add in some garlic powder, onion powder, or cayenne pepper.
- Make sure the burgers are cooked through: Before serving, check that the burgers are cooked through. The shrimp should be opaque and pink, and the burgers should be firm to the touch.
Conclusion:
Southern shrimp burgers are a delicious and easy-to-make seafood dish. They're perfect for a summer cookout or a casual weeknight meal.
