ALL-AMERICAN BURGER DOG

All-American Burger Dog image

This 'burger dog' is far more than a hot dog-shaped cheeseburger. It's a one-handed wonder that's perfectly proportioned and easier to eat than a regular cheeseburger.

Time 20m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

1 pound ground beef (80% lean)
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
2 slices Cheddar cheese
2 extra-long hot dog buns
4 teaspoons mayonnaise
2 tablespoons ketchup

Steps:

Place half the ground beef on a sheet of plastic wrap. Pat it into a rectangular shape, about 1/2 inch thick, 8 1/2 inches long, and 4 inches wide. Season with salt and pepper. Roll the beef into a log, using the plastic wrap as a guide. Season with more salt and pepper. Wrap the plastic tightly around the log and twist both ends tight. Pat gently to slightly flatten. Repeat with remaining ground beef.
Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate. Remove the burger dogs from the plastic wrap and place on the grill, perpendicular to the grates. Cook until burgers are browned but still pink inside, 4 to 5 minutes, flip, and cook another 2 to 3 minutes. Place a slice of cheese on each burger dog and grill to medium doneness (an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 140 degrees F/60 degrees C). Remove and rest 3 to 4 minutes.
Toast hot dog buns on the grill and spread each with 2 teaspoons mayonnaise. Place burger dog on each bun and squirt 1 tablespoon of ketchup on top.

ALL AMERICAN CAJUN BURGER

All American Cajun Burger image

What a great burger! Rib-eye meat makes the burger really moist and it oozes with melty cheese inside and out. There's a crunch from the lettuce. The sweet, spicy, and savory relish combined with the spicy remoulade pumps up the flavors in this burger. Not your run-of-the-mill burger recipe.

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 13

Ingredients

2 lb ground rib-eye
1 lb bacon
1 large red onion
1 jar(s) hot and sweet jalapeños, 12 oz
1 tsp kosher salt
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1 pkg Havarti cheese (plain)
8 large whole wheat sweet hamburger rolls
1 bag(s) shredded lettuce
1 stick butter
1 bottle remoulade sauce, 10.5 oz
1/2 tsp black pepper

Steps:

1. Cook bacon. Then crumble bacon and reserve grease.
2. Saute chopped onion and chopped jalapeños in bacon grease.
3. Mix with bacon crumbles and set aside.
4. Make 16 thin patties.
5. Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
6. Place a rectangle of cheese on 8 burgers.
7. Then top each with another patty and seal edges.
8. Grill burgers on hot coals until temp is desired (140)
9. Place a paper-thin slice of cheese on burgers.
10. Top with onion, pepper, and bacon mixture.
11. Butter each roll.
12. Toast on a flat pan.
13. Spread rolls with remoulade sauce. Place lettuce on the roll, then burger and top with roll.

Tips:

Choose the right beef: Use a blend of 80% lean and 20% fat ground beef for the best flavor and texture.
Season the meat simply: Salt and pepper are all you need to season the beef. Don't overdo it, or you'll mask the natural flavor of the meat.
Form the patties gently: Don't overwork the meat, or the burgers will be tough. Just mix the beef, salt, and pepper together gently until everything is evenly combined.
Cook the burgers over medium heat: This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from drying out.
Don't flip the burgers too often: Only flip the burgers once, when they're cooked about halfway through. Flipping them too often will make them tough.
Let the burgers rest before serving: This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat, making them more flavorful and juicy.

Conclusion:

Making a great all-American burger is all about using fresh, high-quality ingredients and cooking them properly. By following these tips, you can make burgers that are juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. So fire up the grill and get cooking!
