Categories     Cheese

Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 22

1 1/2 lbs 90% lean ground beef
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
1/2 medium onion, finely chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 red bell pepper, finely chopped
1 serrano pepper, finely chopped
1/2 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
1 cup monterey jack pepper cheese, grated and divided
1 egg
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons steak seasoning (I recommend Grill Seasoning)
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
12 cremini mushrooms, sliced
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1/4 cup red wine
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1/2 cup milk
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons chives
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, chopped onion, garlic, bell pepper, serrano, parsley, 1/2 the pepper jack cheese, egg, Worcestershire and grill seasoning in a large mixing bowl.
  • Mix gently until all ingredients are combined well.
  • Form 4 fat patties.
  • Drizzle olive oil on a platter and coat both sides of the patties with the oil.
  • Place patties in a hot (medium high flame) skillet. Don't move them! Let the patties caramelize on one side before flipping, then let them caramelize on the other side.
  • When patties are done, transfer to a platter. Top each patty with 1/4 of the remaining cheese. Cover with a foil tent and place into a warm oven to melt the cheese. The foil tent helps the patties retain their juiciness.
  • In the same skillet, drizzle in the remaining 1 Tbsp of olive oil.
  • Saute the onions and mushrooms until the mushrooms are a nice, rich brown, then season with salt and pepper.
  • Deglaze the pan with wine, scraping up all the tasty brown bits. Let the alcohol cook off.
  • Stir in Worcestershire, milk and mustard. The mixture will thicken up quickly.
  • Gloss the sauce by dropping the butter into the pan in small chunks and letting it melt. When all the butter is melted, give the pan a final stir.
  • When you plate the patties, spoon the onion mushroom sauce over each patty.
  • Garnish with fresh chives.
  • Enjoy!

THE ULTIMATE MCDONALD'S BURGER RECIPE COMPLETE WITH SECRET SAUCE



The Ultimate Mcdonald's Burger Recipe Complete With Secret Sauce image

After sifting through tons of copycats and after a great deal of personal trial and error, I've come up with a pretty mean Micky D's Style burger. The best part of the recipe is by far the secret sauce, the ultimate burger enhancer. (And no, it's NOT thousand Island). I hope your family enjoys this as much as mine does! Note: You will want to mix and refridgerate both patties and sauce prior to cook time Doing this in advance makes for a super quick and easy dinner

Provided by Midnight_Blue_

Categories     Cheese

Time 40m

Yield 8 burgers, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 20

1/4 cup Miracle Whip
1/4 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons heaping WISHBONE Deluxe French salad dressing
1/2 tablespoon Heinz® sweet relish
2 teaspoons heaping VLASIC dill pickle relish (Heinz dill relish also works)
1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon dried onion flakes
1 teaspoon white vinegar
1 teaspoon ketchup
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 lb 80% lean ground chuck
4 tablespoons salt
2 tablespoons Accent seasoning (msg)
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
1 sheet wax paper
8 sour dill pickles
8 teaspoons dried onion flakes
8 small sesame hamburger buns
8 slices kraft American cheese

Steps:

  • Sauce:
  • Mix all ingredients and then microwave for approximately 20 seconds on high to melt sugar.
  • *****Then refrigerate at least 1 hour before serving, allowing flavors to blend.***** This is the most crucial yet overlooked step!
  • while waiting on sauce, gather burger ingredients.
  • Pickles: Slice Vlasic original or Heinz genuine dills into small slices (cut at angle) and set aside.
  • Onions: Place dried onions in tupperware container and cover in water (should be just barely submerged) set aside (in refridgerator).
  • Patties: Mix salt, msg, pepper, and onion together in a shaker or small container. Lightly season beef, kneading about 1/3 of the seasoning into the meat. divide meat into 8 small patties about 4 in by 1/4 in for 1/8 lb patties, 1/2 - 3/4 in for 1/4 pound patties. Press flat onto wax paper and then freeze for approximately 30 minutes. (This prevents the patties from breaking apart when grilled)
  • Once frozen, cook patties at about 400 degrees on a griddle, george forman grill, or if necessary, pan fry them on high. They are thin, so they should cook quickly, about 2 minutes each will do. Sprinkle generously with premade burger seasonings, remove and top with 1 slice of Kraft American cheese.
  • Then open and place both crown and heel of burger bun on same griddle, allowing bun to toast and soak in burger flavor. Make sure that griddle is not wet enough to dampen bun! You want to allow bun to pick up residual burger flavors, without soaking or dampening. Toast for approximately 1-2 minutes.
  • Remove bun and seperate two pieces, crown and heel.
  • Crown: top with 5 small squirts of Heinz tomato ketchup, 5 squirts of yellow French's mustard, and then add your onions and pickle slices. (amounts will vary depending on tastes, I use just under 1 tsp onion and 3 pickle slices).
  • Heel: top generously with Mac Sauce before topping with patty and prepared crown.
  • "Big Mac Style:" If desired, this recipe can be used for larger 1/4 lb patties and/or layered "Big Mac" style. If this is desired, toast two buns per burger, discarding second crown on each. Top each heel with Mac sauce, burger patty, and 1 slice kraft american cheese, then stack one on top of the other. Prepare one crown as described above and then top burger with onions, pickle, toasted crown, and any additional desired ingredients (such as lettuce or tomato).
  • And presto! The ultimate Mcdonalds style cheeseburger! This recipe can be made very quickly with practice. Additionally, making sauce and patties in advance really speeds up the process. Your thoughts are always welcome and appreciated, enjoy!

THE ALABAMA SMOKEHOUSE PIG BURGER WITH WHITE BARBECUE SAUCE



The Alabama Smokehouse Pig Burger with White Barbecue Sauce image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 6 burgers

Number Of Ingredients 16

3/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 tablespoons white sugar
2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
12 slices thick cut hickory smoked bacon
2 pounds ground pork
1 tablespoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Vegetable oil, for grill rack
6 thick slices smoked Gouda (recommended: Boar's Head)
6 kaiser rolls, split
2 1/2 cups shredded green cabbage

Steps:

  • Prepare a medium-hot fire in a charcoal grill with a cover, or preheat a gas grill to medium-high.
  • In a small mixing bowl combine the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, sugar, and black pepper. Mix until well combined and refrigerate until serving.
  • Heat a large fireproof nonstick skillet on the grill. Add the bacon and cook over medium-high heat until the bacon is crispy, about 5 minutes, flipping once. Drain on paper towels. Reserve the rendered bacon fat from the skillet.
  • Combine the pork, smoked paprika, chili powder, cayenne, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Add 1 1/2 tablespoons of the rendered bacon fat from the skillet. Mix well, handling the meat as little as possible to avoid compacting. Divide the mixture into 6 equal portions and form the portions into patties to fit the size of the rolls.
  • Brush the grill rack with oil. Arrange the patties on the rack, cover, and cook, turning once just until done, about 4 minutes on each side for medium-rare. During the last few minutes of cooking, top the burgers with equal amounts of smoked Gouda and put the rolls, cut side down, on the outer edges of the rack to toast lightly.
  • To assemble the burgers, spread a generous amount of Alabama White Barbecue Sauce on the cut sides of the rolls. On each roll bottom, put some shredded cabbage, a cheese-topped patty, and 2 slices of bacon. Cover with the roll tops and serve.

MC DONALD'S SPECIAL BURGER SAUCE ( BIG MAC SAUCE - COPYCAT )



Mc Donald's Special Burger Sauce ( Big Mac Sauce - Copycat ) image

This sauce is a clone of the Big Mac Sauce and comes from the book "Even More Top Secret Recipes" by Todd Wilbur. It tastes exactly like the real thing so if your a Big Mac lover like I, you'll be thrilled. The beauty of this recipe is I have tried it with lowfat mayonnaise (Hellman's Just 2 Good) and it was wonderful. I'd stick with regular French dressing, though, just to be safe.

CAJUN BURGER WITH SPICY SOUTHWEST SAUCE



Cajun Burger With Spicy Southwest Sauce image

This is the best homemade burger I have ever eaten. We are not fans of garlic but we love Worcestershire sauce and we prefer flavor over health consciousness. By following this recipe you will get just a hint of garlic, mild spice, and a lot of Worcestershire flavor. If you like to really taste your garlic then you will need to add more. If you like spicy leave more seeds or increase the number of peppers and last but not least, if you are not a fan of Worcestershire sauce then cut back to 1 tbsp. If you want to be health conscious then use a lower fat meat but really watch your cooking time or it will be dry and lose a lot of flavor. In fact, if you go with sirloin or round I would suggest adding two pieces of white bread (crust removed) soaked in milk to your mix to retain moisture. My kids are VERY picky eaters and they love these burgers. (Take that McDonalds!)

Categories     Cajun

Time 30m

Yield 5-6 Burgers, 5-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 teaspoon cajun seasoning (Luzianne Cajun Seasoning)
1 tablespoon barbecue sauce (Sweet Baby Rays)
1/2 tablespoon butter
1/2 cup yellow onion, diced
1/2 garlic clove, minced
1 serrano pepper, most of the seeds removed and minced
1 1/2 lbs hamburger (70/30)
1 tablespoon cajun seasoning
1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce

Steps:

  • Cajun Mayo:.
  • Prepare the Cajun mayo by combining the mayo, Cajun seasoning, and BBQ sauce and stir. Taste and adjust (like your grandma always told you), then set aside.
  • Pre-Heat Grill on High.
  • Burgers:.
  • Heat a small pan over medium high heat.
  • Add the pat of butter to the pan and melt.
  • Add the onions and sauté 2-3 minutes stir often.
  • Add the peppers and continue to sauté 1-2 minutes.
  • Add the garlic and sauté until fragrant.
  • Remove the onion, pepper, garlic mixture from heat allow to cool (Stick it in the freezer if your stomach is growling!).
  • Put the onion mixture into a large non-reactive bowl.
  • Tear the hamburger into small pieces and place in the same bowl.
  • Add the Worcestershire sauce.
  • Sprinkle 1/2 of the tbsp of Cajun seasoning over the meat and mix gently but thoroughly with your hands. (No pockets of seasoning please!).
  • Sprinkle the remaining Cajun seasoning and remix careful to not over work the meat.
  • Form into patties slightly larger than your buns.
  • Grilling:.
  • Place the burgers on the grill and listen to it sear the meat.
  • Reduce the heat to medium / medium high and continue cooking with the lid closed until the burgers are done to your liking flipping once.
  • Add the cheese shortly after the flip to get a really good melt (Important for thick slices of cheese).
  • Remember meat tastes better if not over cooked and the temperature will rise another 3-5 degrees after pulling the burgers from the grill. Cooking by temperature is the only way to get consistent results. I like to pull my burgers at 145-150 degrees.

PECAN AND MUSHROOM BURGER WITH BLUE CHEESE SAUCE

Such a tasty veggie burger. These take a little work, however they are a great make ahead meal. The website states that you can wrap the uncooked patties individually and refrigerate for up to 2 days or freeze for up to 3 months (thawing in the refrigerator before cooking). One of the reviewers on the other site said that you can leave out the egg for a tasty vegan burger without any issues. From the Eating Well website. NOTE: After making these, I have changed up the recipe to perfection :) If you like parsley, you may want to add a little fresh parsley in these as well.

Categories     < 60 Mins

Time 1h

Yield 8 burgers, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

1/3 cup nonfat plain yogurt
3 tablespoons crumbled blue cheese (1 ounce)
1 tablespoon prepared blue cheese dressing (plus more for garnish)
1 tablespoon chives
2/3 cup bulgur
3/4 teaspoon salt, divided
1 cup boiling water
8 ounces white mushrooms, stems trimmed, wiped clean and chopped (may sub brown mushrooms)
1 cup mixed chopped wild mushroom (optional)
1 cup chopped onion
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1/2 cup pecan pieces
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1/2 cup fine dry breadcrumb (Italian flavored work great)
1 tablespoon italian seasoning (may sub 1/2 T Greek seasoning)
fresh ground pepper

Steps:

  • Combine yogurt, blue cheese, chives (if using) and dressing in a small bowl and blend with a fork to make a chunky sauce. Refrigerate it while you make the burgers; it will keep for up to 2 days.
  • Place bulgur and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a small bowl. Pour the boiling water over, cover and set aside until the water is absorbed, about 20 minutes. Drain in a sieve, pressing out excess liquid.
  • Meanwhile, spray a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray and turn on stove to medium heat. Add mushrooms, onion and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt; cook, stirring, until the vegetables are softened, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in vinegar and garlic. Immediately transfer the mixture to a plate and let cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes.
  • Combine the vegetable mixture in a food processor; pulse briefly until coarsely chopped. Add egg; pulse briefly, scraping down the sides if necessary, until the mixture is cohesive but roughly textured. Transfer to a bowl; stir in bulgur, breadcrumbs, pecans Italian seasoning and pepper. Mix well.
  • With dampened hands, form the mixture into eight 1/2-inch-thick patties, using about 1/2 cup for each. (I made mine into 13 mini burgers using a slider station).
  • Place burgers on a cookie sheet (coated with cooking spray) and place under a broiler on high. Mine took 8 minutes to crisp ever so slightly and to become heated through. You can also cook them in a frying pan for 4 minutes per side (mine fell apart doing this though, that's why I put the rest of them under the broiler).
  • Garnish the burgers with watercress and the blue cheese sauce, if desired.

GARBANZO BEAN BURGER WITH TEHINA ONION SAUCE



Garbanzo Bean Burger with Tehina Onion Sauce image

Provided by Food Network

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 23

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1/2 cup diced onions
1/2 cup carrots, grated
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon celery seed
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 cup walnuts
1 1/2 cups cooked garbanzo beans (or 1 (15 1/2-ounce) can, drained)
5 tablespoons gluten flour
2 tablespoons arrowroot powder
1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped finely
Oil for frying
Tehina Onion Sauce, recipe follows
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 onion, minced
4 scallions, sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup tehina (tahini)
1 tablespoon white miso or sea salt, to taste
3/4 cup water
1 teaspoon rice vinegar
Fresh parsley, minced

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a frying pan and saute the onions, carrots, garlic, cumin, celery seed, and salt over medium heat until the onions are transparent. In a food processor, combine the nuts, and blend until 1/2 are a coarse meal and the other are just cracked. Place in a large mixing bowl and add the Sauteed vegetable mixture. Add the garbanzo beans in the processor and process the same way as the nuts. Add flour and arrowroot. Add the beans and parsley to the mixing bowl. Mix everything together well until the mixture has enough body to form a patty. If the mixture is too dry or crumbly, add a small amount of water to help the mixture bind. Form the mixture into 4 burgers. Lightly oil the frying pan and fry the burgers over medium heat for 3 to 4 minutes on each side until lightly browned.
  • Heat oil in skillet, saute onion, scallion and garlic until soft. Add tehina and stir until lightly roasted. Dissolve miso and seasoning in 3/4 cup water. Stir into tehina. Add vinegar and simmer 5 minutes but do not boil. Add fresh parsley.

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/2 red onion, diced
4 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 large sweet potato, steamed and then peeled
1 cup cooked quinoa
1 can 15oz can of black beans, drained and rinsed
3/4 cup almond meal
1 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
1/4-1/2 teaspoon cayenne
4 burger buns of choice
4-8 romaine lettuce leaves, for assembling
4 slices sliced tomatoes
1/4 cup tahini
1 pinch saffron threads
1 clove garlic, grated
1/2 juice of 1/2 lemon

Steps:

  • To prepare the burger, 1. Heat a skillet over medium heat and add 1 tbsp of olive oil. When the oil shimmers, add your red onions and sauté until they start to become tender, translucent, and slightly golden around the edges. 2. Once the onions have started to brown, add the cumin, turmeric, cayenne, salt, and pepper. Cook the spices with the onions until the "raw" spice smell goes away, and the spices have roasted and darkened in color about 3-4 minutes. Remove the onions from heat and set aside to cool. 3. In a high-speed blender, combined your steamed and mashed sweet potato, black beans, cooked quinoa, cumin sautéed red onions, almond meal, and 1 tbsp of olive oil. Blend the burger on high speed, scraping down the sides of the blender as needed to ensure the mixture is incorporated. Don't worry about completely pulverizing the burger mixture, we like to keep a little bit of texture here. 4. Transfer the mixture into a bowl, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Mix again to thoroughly combine. 5. Form the mixture into burger patties with your hands - this makes about 4 large burgers, or 6 smaller ones. 6. Heat your pan on medium heat, and add some olive oil. When the oil shimmers, add your burger patties to the hot pan and pan-fry the burger, about 5 minutes each side, until the burger is golden-brown around the tops and edges.
  • To prepare the sauce, 1. In a small bowl, combine your lemon juice and saffron threads and let sit for about 5 minutes to allow the saffron to infuse into the lemon juice. 2. In a separate bowl, mix the tahini, grated garlic clove, olive oil, and finally the lemon and saffron mixture together. Season with salt and pepper to taste. 3. Mix to combine until smooth. Add a tablespoon of water (or more) to get the sauce to your desired consistency.

Categories     Entree

Time 25m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 1/4 cups Original Bisquick™ mix
2/3 cup milk
1 lb ground beef (preferably 80/20 fat content)
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 cup leftover chili, hot (I used Cincinnati Chili)
10 to 12 frozen onions rings (if desired), cooked as directed on package
1 cup corn chips, if desired
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
2 cups milk
1/4 teaspoon ground mustard
1/2 cup shredded provolone cheese (2 oz)
1 1/2 cups shredded sharp white Cheddar cheese (6 oz)

Steps:

  • To make the biscuits, heat oven to 450°F. Stir ingredients until soft dough forms. Turn onto surface dusted with Bisquick mix. Knead 10 times. Roll dough 1/2 inch thick. Cut with 2 1/2-inch cutter. Place on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Next, Heat gas or charcoal grill. Add beef to large bowl, and season with salt and pepper. Shape beef into 4 equal patties. Place on grill over medium-high heat. Close grill; cook to desired doneness. I cook mine about 4 minutes per side, but it will depend on how thick your burgers are. Remove from grill, and keep warm while you make cheese sauce.
  • To make cheese sauce, melt butter in 1-quart saucepan over medium-high heat. Stir in flour; cook about 1 minute. Beat in milk and mustard with whisk. Heat to bubbling, and let thicken, about 2 minutes. Turn off heat, and stir in provolone cheese, Cheddar cheese and a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir until cheese is melted.
  • To assemble burgers, split biscuits in half and place a burger patty on the bottom of each biscuit. Top each burger with about 1/4 cup of hot chili, then carefully drizzle on the warm cheese sauce. Finish the burgers with warm crispy onion rings and corn chips. Top with the top half of the biscuit, and enjoy!
