GRILLED SUMMER VEGETABLES WITH SAVORY AND SWEET SAUCE



Grilled Summer Vegetables with Savory and Sweet Sauce image

When grilling vegetables over an open hardwood fire, the key is to watch for the moment when the juices of the vegetables start to render away. At that point you know you're about 1 minute away from perfectly charred vegetables. Chopped into bites, the grilled carrots, zucchini and yellow squash become little sponges that absorb all the delicious sweet and savory sauce.

Categories     side-dish

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup fish sauce
1/2 cup honey
3 cloves garlic, chopped
3 fresh Thai bird chiles, chopped
Juice of 2 limes
Kosher salt
2 carrots, halved lengthwise
2 medium yellow squash, halved lengthwise
2 medium zucchini, halved lengthwise
Canola oil, for brushing
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • For the savory and sweet sauce: Whisk together the fish sauce, honey, garlic, Thai bird chiles, lime juice and 1 teaspoon salt in a small bowl. Set aside.
  • For the vegetables: Set up a hardwood fire and let it burn to low-burning embers (see Cook's Note). Set up your grate for direct and indirect heat cooking.
  • Lay the carrots, yellow squash and zucchini on a rimmed baking sheet. Brush with the oil and season with salt and pepper. Place the vegetables, cut-side down, on the grill grate over indirect heat. Grill the vegetables until tender and lightly charred, 5 to 6 minutes. Flip and grill until lightly charred, 2 to 3 minutes more. Transfer to a cutting board and cut into smaller pieces. Toss the vegetables with the sauce in a large bowl.

GRILLED HAMBURGERS



Grilled Hamburgers image

We cook a lot of burgers indoors on a fat-slicked iron skillet, and you can do that on a grill as well. (Here's our burger guide for more information and inspiration.) But sometimes you want a smoky grilled burger. For that, a charcoal grill is best, but a gas grill can do the trick, too. Resist the temptation to press down on the burgers with a spatula, which only spews juice and fat on the fire, causing the flames to flare up and the burger to lose flavor. If you feel your burger is cooking too quickly, use the cooler sides of the grill to rest them. And remember: lowering the top on the grill helps cheese melt.

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 1/2 pounds ground beef, about 20 percent fat
Kosher salt and black pepper
Cheese slices (optional)
4 hamburger buns, split

Steps:

  • Start a charcoal fire or heat a gas grill. (Check out our grilling guide for how.) Form the patties into 3/4-inch burgers, being careful not to make them too loose or too large, then make a deep depression in the center of each burger with your thumb. Season both sides of the each burger aggressively with kosher salt and black pepper.
  • Place burgers on a hot grill and cook, without moving, for about 3 minutes. Use a spatula to turn the hamburger over. If using cheese, lay slices on the meat. Continue to cook until the burgers are cooked through, about another 3 to 4 minutes for medium-rare. Remove the burgers from the grill and allow to rest for a few minutes while you toast the buns. Top the burgers as you desire.

SAVORY SKILLET BURGERS

A last-minute quick meal turned into a family favorite. Best homemade skillet burgers I have ever had and they are surprisingly not too bad for you! Making them into sliders on lightly toasted sourdough is an amazing gourmet treat for guests! My boyfriend got out the ketchup, and after one bite of these burgers he put the ketchup away. These burgers are perfect as-is--you don't even need buns!

Time 25m

Yield 5

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 tablespoon oil, or as needed
1 ¼ pounds lean ground beef
½ cup egg whites
⅓ cup chopped and drained oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes
3 ounces crumbled goat cheese, or more to taste
2 teaspoons sea salt
1 teaspoon steak seasoning
1 teaspoon dried parsley flakes
2 tablespoons liquid hickory smoke seasoning

Steps:

  • Lightly oil a large skillet and put over low heat.
  • Mix ground beef, egg whites, sun-dried tomatoes, goat cheese, sea salt, steak seasoning, and parsley in a large bowl. Shape into 5 hamburger patties.
  • Put patties in the skillet and cook for 5 minutes. Flip and cook another 5 minutes. Increase heat to medium or medium-high, cover, and continue to cook, flipping occasionally, until burgers are cooked through and juicy, 5 to 10 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (71 degrees C). Top with liquid hickory smoke seasoning.

Tips:

  • Choose the right ground beef: Opt for 80/20 ground beef for a juicy and flavorful burger. Avoid using leaner ground beef as it can result in dry burgers.
  • Season the ground beef liberally: Use a combination of salt, pepper, and garlic powder to season the ground beef. You can also add other seasonings like onion powder, paprika, or chili powder to taste.
  • Form the burgers gently: Handle the ground beef gently when forming the burgers. Overworking the meat can make the burgers tough.
  • Make a thumbprint in the center of each burger: This will help prevent the burgers from puffing up in the center while cooking.
  • Cook the burgers over medium-high heat: This will help create a nice crust on the outside of the burgers while keeping the inside juicy.
  • Flip the burgers only once: Flipping the burgers too often can dry them out. Flip the burgers only once, when the underside is nicely browned.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure the burgers are cooked to your desired doneness: The internal temperature of the burgers should reach 160°F for medium-rare, 165°F for medium, or 170°F for well-done.
  • Let the burgers rest before serving: Let the burgers rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the burgers, making them more juicy and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Grilled savory hamburgers are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. By following the tips above, you can make perfectly cooked hamburgers that are juicy, flavorful, and sure to be a hit at your next cookout or gathering.
