CAJUN BURGERS



Cajun Burgers image

Meet the Cook: My family likes its food spicy. I found the original recipe for these burgers in a cookbook, then added and subtracted ingredients until they suited our taste. Cajun Burgers are always on the menu whenever we have company over for a backyard cookout. Like my husband, I was raised in the country. We have four children (20, 16, 13 and 9) and now a grandson, too! -Julie Culbertson, Bansalem, Pennsylvania

Number Of Ingredients 22

For the Seasoning:
2 tablespoons paprika
2 tablespoons garlic powder
1 1/2 tablespoons oregano
1 tablespoon dried onion powder
2 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
2 teaspoons dried thyme
2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 teaspoons cayenne pepper
For the Sauce:
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 green onion, finely chopped
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon hot sauce (e.g., Frank's, Texas Pete, Tabasco )
1 teaspoon dill relish
3/4 teaspoon Cajun seasoning, or to taste
For the Burgers:
1 1/2 pounds ground beef (80/20 or 85/15)
1/3 cup finely minced onion
2 cloves garlic, pressed
1 1/2 teaspoons Cajun seasoning
Sandwich buns, burger toppings, optional

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients.
  • In a small bowl, combine the paprika, garlic powder, oregano, onion powder, kosher salt, thyme, and the black and cayenne peppers. Stir to combine. Transfer the mixture to a jar with a lid.
  • In another small bowl, combine the mayonnaise with the finely chopped green onion, Dijon mustard, hot sauce, and dill relish. Add 3/4 teaspoon of the Cajun seasoning (or to taste). Cover and refrigerate the remoulade until serving time.
  • In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, minced onion, pressed garlic, and 1 1/2 teaspoons of the Cajun seasoning mixture. Mix to blend thoroughly.
  • With your hands of a burger press, shape the meat mixture into four burgers. Each burger will weigh approximately 6 ounces. With your thumb, make an indentation in the center of each burger. Refrigerate the burgers until it is time to cook. Store the remaining Cajun seasoning in a cool, dark place.
  • Heat the grill to medium-high heat. When the grill is hot, brush the grate with olive oil or canola oil. Place the burgers on the grill, indentation side up and grill for about 5 minutes. Carefully flip the burgers and continue grilling for about 4 to 5 minutes longer, or until the burgers register 160 F, the minimum safe temperature recommended by the USDA.
  • Transfer the burgers to a plate or rack and tent with foil. Let them rest for 5 minutes.
  • Assemble the burgers on buns with your choice of toppings, along with a generous amount of remoulade sauce.
