Best Soy Glazed Beef Burger Recipes

ASIAN STYLE SOY BURGER

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients with ground beef* in a bowl and mix well. Shape burger patties and grill burger following your favorite method.

HOISIN-GLAZED BURGERS

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
• Heat the oil in a small saucepan over high heat. Add the ginger and garlic and cook, stirring, until soft, about 2 minutes. Whisk in the hoisin sauce, ketchup, sherry, sesame oil, soy sauce and bring to a boil. Remove from heat and cool slightly.
• Mix the beef with the cilantro, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper using your hands until just combined. Form into four 3/4-inch-thick patties and about 4 1/2 inches in diameter.
• Lightly oil the grill grates and grill the burgers, flipping once for medium, 4 to 5 minutes per side, brushing the burgers with some of the sauce in the last few minutes of cooking time.
• Serve the burgers on the buns with the extra sauce on the side and lettuce, tomato, onion and pickles on top and fries on the side if desired.

SOY-GLAZED BEEF

Steps:

• To make the marinade, blitz the garlic, chilli and ginger in a blender until finely chopped. Add the soy or teriyaki sauce and ketchup, then pulse until completely blended. Put the beef in a dish and smear over the marinade. Leave in the fridge to marinate for up to 24 hours, the longer the better.
• To cook the beef, fire up the barbecue and, when flames subside and coals glow, lay it fat side down and char for about 5 mins to get fat sizzling. Flip it over and cook for 40 mins for medium rare, turning occasionally until all sides are charred. If the barbecue has a lid, use it for a smokier flavour. A few mins before taking the beef off, drizzle over brandy or bourbon (if using) to flambé the meat.
• Lift the meat onto a board, cover with foil and leave to rest for at least 10 mins. Carve the beef into slices like a roast and serve with any juices.
