Number Of Ingredients 28

1 1/2 Tbsp ground coffee
1/2 Tbsp salt
1/2 Tbsp paprika
1/2 Tbsp brown sugar
1/2 Tbsp pepper
1/2 Tbsp onion powder
1/2 Tbsp garlic powder
1/4 Tbsp ground coriander
2 Tbsp butter
1/2 yellow onion (diced)
3 cloves garlic (roughly minced)
1/2 cup ketchup
1 1/2 Tbsp tomato paste
6 oz Dr Pepper
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
2 1/2 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1/4 cup brown sugar (packed)
1 tsp ancho chile powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
3 Tbsp brewed coffee
2 lbs Angus ground beef (85/15)
2 Tbsp heavy cream (or extra bbq sauce)
1 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
Brioche or pretzel buns
green leaf or arugula lettuce
8 slices cooked bacon

Steps:

  • Combine coffee rub seasoning mix ingredients in a small bowl and mix together with a fork. Set aside.
  • Melt butter over MED heat in a saucepan. Add onion and garlic and saute until soft and translucent, about 6-8 minutes.
  • Add remaining bbq sauce ingredients, stirring to combine. Bring to a low boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes, until sauce has thickened.
  • Pour sauce into blender or food processor and puree. Set aside to cool.
  • To a mixing bowl, add ground beef, heavy cream, salt, and black pepper. Mix well with your hands. Divide into 6 equal sections. Each burger will be about 1/3 pound.
  • Use your thumbs to press a half dollar sized divot in the center of each patty (this will help prevent the burger from doming up while cooking).
  • Liberally rub coffee seasoning mix over both sides of each burger.
  • Preheat grill over MED HIGH heat and lightly brush grates with vegetable oil if desired. Grill burgers, for about 5 minutes per side, or until desired doneness is achieved.
  • While burgers are grilling, toast buns on the grill as well.
  • To serve, spread bbq sauce over the top and bottom buns, then top the bottom bun with a piece of lettuce, a cooked burger, a smear of more bbq sauce, some bacon, then top with the top bun.

DR PEPPER BBQ SAUCE



Dr Pepper BBQ Sauce image

My family is stationed in Italy with my husband, Lieutenant William Robert Blackman. William grew up in Memphis, Tennessee, and I'm from Texas, so the dish that spells "home" for us is a good ol' barbecue. I have my own recipe for barbecue sauce that we like to pour all over sliced brisket. Eating it reminds us of weekend barbecues with our families. -Tina Blackman, Naples, Italy

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality ground beef. The better the beef, the better the burgers will be. Look for ground chuck or sirloin that is at least 80% lean.
  • Don't overwork the meat. When you mix the ingredients together, do it gently, just until everything is combined. Overworking the meat will make the burgers tough.
  • Season the burgers well. Use a generous amount of salt and pepper, as well as any other spices you like. This will help the burgers develop flavor as they cook.
  • Form the burgers into patties that are about 3/4-inch thick. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Cook the burgers over medium heat. This will help them develop a nice crust on the outside while staying juicy on the inside.
  • Don't flip the burgers too often. Flip them only once, when they are cooked about halfway through.
  • Let the burgers rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat, making them more tender and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Coffee-rubbed burgers with Dr. Pepper BBQ sauce are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for any occasion. The coffee rub gives the burgers a unique and smoky flavor, while the Dr. Pepper BBQ sauce adds a sweet and tangy kick. Whether you are grilling them in the backyard or cooking them in the kitchen, these burgers are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
