Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 1/2 to 1 3/4 pounds coarsely ground pork (ask butcher to do this)
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, 1/3 palmful
2 teaspoons smoked sweet paprika, 2/3 palmful
1 1/2 teaspoons ground fennel, fennel pollen or 1 teaspoon fennel seed
1 teaspoon ground sage, 1/3 palmful
1 teaspoon granulated onion, 1/3 palmful
1 teaspoon granulated garlic, 1/3 palmful
Salt
Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling, plus 1 tablespoon
3 tablespoons dark brown sugar
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1 cup tomato sauce
Freshly ground black pepper
1 small bundle broccoli rabe, tough ends discarded
1 large or 2 small cloves garlic, finely chopped
A few grates nutmeg
4 thick deli slices sharp provolone cheese
4 ciabatta rolls or other crusty rolls, split
Store-bought olive oil-rosemary or herb flavored fancy potato chips

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine the pork, red pepper flakes, paprika, fennel, sage, onion, garlic and salt, to taste. Form the meat into 4 patties, put on a plate and coat with a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil.
  • Heat a small pot over medium-low heat and add the brown sugar, Worcestershire, vinegar, tomato sauce and black pepper, to taste. Simmer until the mixture becomes a thick steak sauce consistency, about 15 minutes.
  • Add a couple inches of water to a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, then salt the water and add the broccoli rabe. Cook for 5 minutes, then drain. Transfer the broccoli rabe to a cutting board and chop it into 2-inch pieces. Set aside. Return the skillet to the stove over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of extra-virgin olive oil. Stir in the chopped garlic and the broccoli rabe. Saute for 2 minutes, then season with a few grates of nutmeg, to taste.
  • Heat a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat, add the patties and cook for 5 to 6 minutes on each side. Top the patties with a slice of provolone during the last minute of cook time and tent with foil to melt.
  • Divide the broccoli rabe on the bottoms of the rolls and top with the cheesy sausage patties. Slather some of the warm sauce on the roll tops and cover the burgers. Serve the burgers on individual plates with a few chips alongside.

Yield serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 3/4 to 2 pounds ground pork (ask your butcher for a coarse grind)
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, 1/3 palmful
2 teaspoons sweet smoked paprika, 2/3 palmful
1 1/2 teaspoons ground fennel or fennel pollen or 1 teaspoon fennel seed
1 teaspoon ground sage, 1/3 palmful
1 teaspoon granulated onion, 1/3 palmful
1 teaspoon granulated garlic, 1/3 palmful
Salt
EVOO (extra-virgin olive oil) for drizzling, plus 1 tablespoon
1 cup tomato sauce
3 tablespoons dark brown sugar
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
Black pepper
1 small bundle of broccoli rabe, trimmed of tough ends
1 large or 2 small garlic cloves, finely chopped
Freshly grated nutmeg
4 thick deli slices sharp Provolone cheese
4 ciabatta rolls or other crusty rolls, split
Olive oil and rosemary or herb-flavored fancy potato chips, store-bought

Steps:

  • Combine the pork with the red pepper flakes, paprika, fennel, sage, granulated onion, granulated garlic, and salt. Form 4 patties and drizzle with EVOO to coat.
  • Heat a small pot over medium-low heat, add the tomato sauce, brown sugar, Worcestershire, vinegar, and black pepper, then cook for 15 minutes or until thickened to steak-sauce consistency.
  • Bring a couple inches of water to a boil in a medium skillet, salt the water, and cook the broccoli rabe for 5 minutes, then drain. Place the skillet back on the stove and heat the tablespoon of EVOO over medium heat. Add the chopped garlic; chop the broccoli rabe into 2-inch pieces and sauté it in the garlic and oil for 2 minutes. Season with nutmeg to taste.
  • While the water comes to a boil for the broccoli rabe and the tomato sauce reduces, heat a drizzle of EVOO in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the burgers and cook for 5 to 6 minutes on each side. Melt a slice of provolone over the patties during the last minute of cook time. Tent the pan with foil to help the cheese melt.
  • To serve, pile broccoli rabe on each roll, top with a cheesy sausage patty, and set the top of the roll in place with a slather of warm sauce. Place some chips alongside.
