Anyone have a great hamburger recipe for the grill?

Take hamburger, put on grill.





Cook until hamburger is as black, grey, or pink as you like.





Take hamburger off grill and put between 2 buns and garnish with unnecessary fruits, vegetables, cheese, and sauces as your tastes prefer.





Personally, I'd suggest just taking the hamburger patty, lay it on the top of your plate and then put cheese, A1 sauce, hamburger patty, A1 sauce, cheese -- in that order, between it and another hamburger patty! Who really needs a bun?!





COW is really all that's needed on a hamburger. (And maybe a little A1.)Anyone have a great hamburger recipe for the grill?
Serve these big grilled burgers as steaks or as hamburgers with buns.





Ingredients:





* 1 slice (about 1 ounce) French bread


* Water


* 1 1/2 pounds ground round steak


* 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh chives


* 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley


* 2 teaspoons mixed dried tarragon, oregano, thyme and marjoram


* 1 teaspoon salt


* 1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt


* 1/4 teaspoon black pepper


* 1 egg





Preparation:


In a large mixing bowl, soak the bread in enough water to cover. Squeeze out and discard the water. Add the ground beef and herbs, salt and pepper. Break in the egg and mix well with hands or fork. Shape the meat into 4 large patties, each about 1 inch thick. Place the burgers on a greased grill about 4 inches above hot coals. Grill about 10 to 15 minutes per side, or until juices run clear.


Omit French bread or replace with crushed pork rinds or ground almonds to make this a low carb recipe.

Burger of the Gods











8 ounces chuck, trimmed, cut into 1 1/2-inch cubes


8 ounces sirloin, trimmed, cut into 1 1/2-inch cubes


1/2 teaspoon kosher salt


In separate batches, pulse the chuck and the sirloin in a food processor 10 times. Combine the chuck, sirloin, and kosher salt in a large bowl. Form the meat into 5-ounce patties.


Heat a cast iron skillet or griddle over medium-high heat for 2 to 3 minutes. Place the hamburger patties in the pan. For medium-rare burgers, cook the patties for 4 minutes on each side. For medium burgers, cook the patties for 5 minutes on each side. Flip the burgers only once during cooking.
1 lb hamburger meat


2 heaping tablespoons of chopped fresh rosemary leaves (not the stem)


2 Tbsp A1 sauce


Salt and pepper to taste (perhaps half a teaspoon of each).





Buns


Lettuce


Tomatoes, sliced


Onions, sliced


Avocado, peeled, pitted and sliced


Mayonaise, ketchup, mustard





Method


Mix the rosemary and A1 sauce into the hamburger meat, distributing evenly. Add salt and fresh ground pepper. Form out the hamburger patties. If the meat is low-fat, you may want to add some grapeseed oil or olive oil to the mixture, or after the patties are made (but before cooked), rub some oil over them. Place on a hot grill or grill pan. If you are indoors with a grill pan, be sure to use your stove fan. If on grill pan, lower the heat to medium high. Grill on one side until you can see the juice begin to run at the surface. Flip over and grill on the other side, again until you can see some juice coming through. If you wish, grill the buns on remaining grill surface. Onions can be either served fresh with the hamburger or saut茅ed a little in olive oil.





Serve burgers with lettuce, tomatoes, onions, avocado, mayo, ketchup, and or mustard.
These are real good - Hawaiian Turkey Burgers.


1 (8 oz) can sliced pineapple


1/2 cup dry bread crumbs


1/2 cup sliced green onions


1/2 cup chopped sweet red pepper


1 tbs. reduced sodium soy sauce


1/4 tsp. salt


1 lb. lean ground turkey


1/4 cup reduced sodium teriyaki sauce


4 sesame seed hamburger buns


Coat grill rack with cooking spray before starting the grill. Drain pineapple, reserving 1/4 cup juice (discard remaining juice or save for another use); set pineapple aside. In a bowl, combine the bread crumbs, onions, red pepper, soy sauce, salt %26amp; reserved pineapple juice. Crumble turkey over mixture %26amp; mix well. Shape into four patties.





Grill, covered, over medium heat for 3 minutes on each side. Brush with teriyaki sauce. Grill 4-6 minutes longer on each side or until meat is no longer pink %26amp; a meat thermometer reads 165 degrees. Grill pineapple slices for 2 minutes on each side, basting occasionally with teriyaki sauce. Warm buns on grill; top each with a burger %26amp; pineapple slice.





I used what I had in the house which was green bell pepper %26amp; regular soy sauce. Didn't have teriyaki sauce but I do now. You could probably use ground beef too.
BEEFBURGER





Makes 2 quarter pounders





INGREDIENTS





250g of lean minced beef*


Ground pepper to taste


1 tablespoon of sunflower oil





METHOD





Divide the mince into two halves. Squeeze each half into a ball and then flatten it out into a disc. Make them firm, so that they don鈥檛 fall apart. Make them chunky, as thin edges will cook too quickly. Season with the pepper.





Put the oil into a frying pan on a medium heat. Fry the burgers for about 5 minutes on each side.





ADDITIONS %26amp; ALTERNATIVES





Add some finely chopped onion. Add some herbs.





Use minced lamb, pork or turkey instead of minced beef. If you use minced lamb, add some finely chopped mint, dried mint or some mint sauce. If you use minced pork, add some finely chopped apple or some apple sauce. If you use minced turkey, add some cranberry sauce.





If you need to make the mince go further, add some grated carrot.





If the burgers won鈥檛 hold together, add some beaten egg. If you make the mixture too wet, add some breadcrumbs.





Cook the burgers under a preheated medium grill for about 5 minutes on each side instead of frying. If the mince is very lean, you might need to coat the burgers with a little oil.





TIPS





Chilling the burgers in the fridge helps them to hold together whilst cooking.





You can make the burgers using a burger press. This is a round mould, which you fill with the mince and then press it into uniformly sized burgers. However, hand made burgers have more 鈥榬ustic charm鈥?and there鈥檚 no washing up.





* Use good quality lean and finely ground mince. The cheaper the mince, the higher the fat content and the more coarsely it is ground. Use chuck steak, which is reasonably cheap but doesn鈥檛 have too much fat, and either get the butcher to grind it, or invest in a meat grinder and do it yourself.
I make these Bacon Blue Cheese Buffalo Burgers. Pretty simple, yet effective.





- 2lbs Buffalo Meat (I prefer this b/c it is very lean and I think it tastes better. You can of course use ground beef here, which is less expensive.)


- 1 cup Worchester Sauce


- Salt and Pepper


- 1 package crumled blue cheese (16oz)


- 1 package Bacon


- Large Sesame Buns (or bread of choice really)





I take the bacon first and fry it up. Drain fat, and get your hands dirty: crumble the bacon. Add 3/4 cup to 1 cup of Worchester sauce, salt and pepper, cooked and crumbled bacon, and 2/3 container of blue cheese crumbles to meat in mixing bowl. Makes 6-8 large patties.





Try topping the burger with the remaining blue cheese crumbles (you want to taste the blue cheese...), fried onions, sauteed mushrooms, etc.

I always add a package of Lipton Onion Soup Mix to 1 lb. to 2 lbs. of hamburgar meat. Give it an awesome flavor and you wont have to add anything else. :)
