OLD SCHOOL MEETS NEW -- CHEESY, ONION, SPICY, BBQ BURGER



Old School Meets New -- Cheesy, Onion, Spicy, BBQ Burger image

I call this "Old School" vs "New School" because I use old classic cooking flavors, with some new flavors to make a great burger. Lipton Onion Soup ... yes the classic, then crisp iceberg lettuce (iceberg is a must), frozen onion rings, now make your own if you want - but I cheat and just buy them (Ore Ida). Sharp aged cheddar cheese (if possible, right from the deli), and a jalapeno, BBQ, bacon mayo. And please, get a good burger roll, don't get those skimpy pre-packaged rolls. This recipe will make 8 nice size burgers so you can always cut this in half if you want. It is a great recipe. Serve with chips, dill pickles, potato salad, macaroni salad ... any of your favorites.

Time 35m

Yield 8 Burgers, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 lbs ground beef
1 (2 ounce) package Lipton Onion Soup Mix
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1/2 cup water
8 rolls (I like to use a hearty kaiser roll, but use your favorite)
1 tablespoon olive oil
iceberg lettuce
8 slices cheddar cheese (I use an aged sliced cheddar, I just get exactly what I need right from the deli and ask them to sli)
24 onion rings (3 per burger, I used a bag of frozen Ore Ida brand frozen fried onion rings and cooked according to )
6 tablespoons mayonnaise (no Miracle Whip)
2 jalapenos, ribs and seeds removed and fine chopped (use one if you don't like heat)
2 tablespoons barbecue sauce (any brand, just plain)
1/4 cup bacon, fine chopped (after it is cooked)

Steps:

  • Bacon -- A couple of options for approximately 4-5 slices of bacon. You can either dice and pan saute until golden brown and then let drain on a plate lined with a paper towel; you can oven bake, even buy pre-cooked bacon and then just dice. For that matter, you can buy a bag of real bacon bits cooked and diced. But my favorite is to cook mine on a paper plate lined with a paper towel and topped with a paper towel and cook in the microwave for 3-4 minutes until crisp -- You get the idea. 1/4 cup crispy chopped bacon bits. Use what you like best.
  • Burgers -- Make these first. I actually like to freeze mine for a short period. It just firms them up and makes it easy to grill. In a medium size bowl, add the worcestershire, lipton onion soup and water and mix well. Add in the beef and mix (using your hands). Don't over mix. Over mixing can make the burgers tough. Form into 8 patties. Place on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper or foil. Freeze for about 15-30 minutes. It just firms them up and makes it easier to grill.
  • Mayo Dressing -- Burgers are chilling, make the mayo dressing. In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise, bacon bits (whatever way you made the bacon), BBQ sauce (any brand), and jalapenos. Cover and refrigerate.
  • Onion Rings -- Now I cheat - I admit. I hate making them, but if you want to make your own, GO FOR IT! If not, I use frozen Ore Ida rings, just set on the cookie sheet in the oven (follow pkg directions) and bake. Mine took approximately 15 minutes. I started the burgers about half way through cooking the onions so they all came out about the same time. I planned on 3 rings per burger which was about right.
  • Grilling -- I use a outdoor grill, but an indoor grill pan would also work great. If not, a large saute pan will be fine. I heat the grill or pan to medium heat drizzled or brushed with the olive oil.
  • With your thumb, push in the center of the burger to make an indentation, not all the way through, but a nice indentation. This will prevent the burger from "puffing" up. Grill on side one until golden brown with good grill marks and flip. Finish grilling the burger until medium well or the desired doneness you prefer. I like medium well for burgers. The last minute, add the cheese, cover and remove from the heat. One minute later - the cheese will be melted and you will have the perfect burger.
  • Rolls -- The last few seconds I put the rolls on the grill for a light toast. Just a few seconds.
  • Burgers -- Slather a little of the BBQ mayo of each side of the rolls, top with a burger, cheese, onion rings, lettuce and the top roll.
  • Serve -- Just ENJOY!

ONION BURGERS



Onion Burgers image

Early in the writing of this book, I struggled to get my ruminations on paper. Although I hesitate to call my temporary impasse writer's block, I can't imagine much worse. Words wouldn't come. And the ones that did weren't smart or engaging or funny. After an eternity of fretting, I began making burgers for lunch. My intent was to cook my way through the recipes I planned for the book. This onion burger was the first thing I tried. After 2 days of oniony repasts, the dark cloud lifted and the words came.

Categories     main-dish

Time 20m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 pound ground chuck
2 onions, shaved (use a mandoline or a very sharp knife to make the thinnest possible slices)
American or pimento cheese
6 buns, split
Mustard

Steps:

  • Place a heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Leave it there for 5 minutes. Loosely gather a handful of ground beef and slip it into the pan. Repeat 6 times. The burgers should be freeform lumps.
  • With the side of a spatula, push the burgers into a semblance of a round. After about a minute, pile on all the onions and then, with as much force as you can manage, smash the onions into the meat. Again, work the sides of the patties into a semblance of a round. Cook another minute and then flip. Season with salt. Smash the burgers again, hard.
  • Place burger on bottom half of the bun and spread with mustard. Spread the cheese on top half of the bun and place on the burger.

JUICY LUCY BURGERS



Juicy Lucy Burgers image

A favorite of Minnesotans! The famous Juicy Lucy! Mmmm. So good. You MUST use American cheese on this to achieve the juiciness in the middle! I like sauteed mushrooms and onions on mine!

Provided by Cooking Mama

Categories     Main Dish Recipes     Burger Recipes     100+ Hamburger Recipes

Time 25m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 ½ pounds ground beef
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
¾ teaspoon garlic salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
4 slices American cheese (such as Kraft®)
4 hamburger buns, split

Steps:

  • Combine ground beef, Worcestershire sauce, garlic salt, and pepper in a large bowl; mix well. Form 8, thin patties from the beef. Each patty should be slightly larger than a slice of cheese.
  • Cut each slice of American cheese into 4 equal pieces; stack the pieces. Sandwich one stack of cheese between 2 ground beef patties. Tightly pinch edges together tightly seal the cheese within the meat. Repeat with the remaining cheese and patties.
  • Preheat a cast-iron or other heavy bottomed skillet over medium heat. Cook burgers until well browned, about 4 minutes. It is common for burgers to puff up due to steam from the melting cheese. Turn burgers and prick the top of each to allow steam to escape; cook until browned on the outside and no longer pink on the inside; about 4 minutes. Serve on hamburger buns.

Tips:

  • Use a sharp knife to slice the onions thinly. This will help them caramelize evenly and prevent them from burning.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the onions. This will also prevent them from caramelizing properly.
  • Cook the onions over medium-low heat. This will allow them to caramelize slowly and develop a deep, rich flavor.
  • Don't stir the onions too frequently. Stirring them too much will prevent them from caramelizing.
  • Be patient! Caramelizing onions takes time. It can take up to 45 minutes, so don't rush the process.

Conclusion:

These spicy cheesy onion burgers are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that are perfect for a weeknight dinner. The caramelized onions add a sweet and savory flavor to the burgers, while the cheese and Sriracha give them a bit of a kick.
