On The Menu Tonight – Hamburgers! Tonight, I fired up the grill and grilled a fantastic burger. A burger doesn’t have to be boring. Check out my recipe to see how I elevated the humble hamburger to a plate of deliciousness. I hope the next time you fire up your grill that you will try this recipe and let me know what you think.
Hamburger with Cheese
Hamburger with Cheese
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef (grass-fed if possible)
- ½ Vidalia onion
- BBQ Sauce – whatever your favorite is.
- 3-4 shakes of Worcestershire sauce
- Salt
- Pepper
- American cheese (or your choice)
Instructions
Put the ground beef in a large bowl and let it come to room temperature.
Pre-heat a skillet. Finely chop the onion and cook until tender. You could keep going and lightly brown the onions – either way is really good. Once cooked, put the onions in a bowl or somewhere they can cool.
Put a good squirt or two of your favorite BBQ sauce in the bowl with the hamburger meat.
Add 3-4 shakes of Worcestershire sauce. Then add salt and pepper to taste.
Add the cooled onions and gently mix all the ingredients together.
Divide the hamburger mixture into 4 patties and set aside.
Light your grill or pre-heat a cast iron skillet.
Once hot, gently place the patties on grill and don’t touch them. Don’t smash them. Leave them alone for at least 3-4 minutes. If you can gently nudge the burger without it falling apart, flip it. Try to put the burger down on a different spot on the grill or pan. Cook for another 2-3 minutes.
While the burgers cook, get your buns and accoutrements ready. I like to slice an onion and grill it with the burgers.
