Beefburgers Recipes

Steps:

• Heat grill to high. In a medium bowl, use a fork to gently combine beef, mustard, and Worcestershire sauce; season with salt and pepper. Gently form mixture into four 1-inch-thick patties.
• Place patties on hottest part of grill; sear until browned, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Move patties to cooler part of grill; continue grilling until desired doneness, 4 to 8 minutes per side.
• Split the hamburger buns and toast on the grill if you like; place a burger on each bun and serve with the desired accompaniments.

Steps:

• Fit a food grinder with a grinding plate with about 1/4-inch holes. Combine chuck and sirloin in a bowl, and slowly grind meat into another bowl. Mix gently, and shape into six 1-inch-thick patties. Cover, and refrigerate until cold and firm, about 30 minutes.
• Preheat grill to medium-high. (If you are using a charcoal grill, coals are ready when you can hold your hand 5 inches above grill for 3 to 4 seconds.) Brush grill with oil. Generously season both sides of patties with salt and pepper. Grill, flipping once, until burgers are cooked through, about 5 minutes per side. Top each burger with a cheese slice during the final 30 seconds of cooking. Grill buns, cut sides down, until lightly toasted, about 30 seconds.
• Lightly drizzle onion with oil, and toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Grill, turning once, until tender, about 2 minutes.
• Combine mustards in a small bowl. Spread mustard mixture on cut sides of bun halves. Divide lettuce, burgers, tomato, and onion among bottom halves. Sandwich with top halves.

Steps:

• Mix all the ingredients in a large bowl until thoroughly combined.
• Shape into patties, it will make 6 large burgers and about 8 smaller ones.
• Heat a small amount of oil in a pan and cook until well browned on each side and meat is cooked through.
• Serve on buns with your favourite condiments.

Steps:

• Sprinkle the ground beef evenly with 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large bowl. Gently form the meat into 4 balls, then lightly press into 4-inch-wide, 1-inch-thick patties. Make a 2-inch-wide indentation in the center of each with your thumb to prevent the burgers from bulging when grilled.
• Preheat a grill to high. Season the patties with salt and pepper. Grill, undisturbed, until marked on the bottom, 3 to 5 minutes. Turn and grill until the other side is marked and the patties feel firm, 3 to 5 more minutes; if desired, top each burger with 2 slices cheese during the last 2 minutes of cooking and cover with a disposable aluminum pan to melt.
• Serve the patties on the buns; top with lettuce and tomato.

Steps:

• Heat oil in large, non-stick skillet until hot; add onion.
• Cook and stir until onion is browned, about 10 minutes.
• Add green pepper and mushrooms.
• Cook and stir until mushrooms are browned, about 8 minutes.
• Stir in wine.
• Simmer until reduced.
• Stir in beef broth, thyme, salt and pepper.
• Simmer, covered, until green pepper is limp.
• Divide beef into 4 equal parts.
• Shape beef into patties to match the shape of the French rolls.
• Broil beef patties 4 inches from source of heat 4 minutes.
• Flip patties.
• Broil 4 minutes longer for rare, or until desired doneness.
• Place patties on half of each roll.
• Top each patty with 3/4 cup mushroom mixture.

Steps:

• Heat up the oil in a frying pan and add the diced onions.
• Reduce down the heat and let the onions sweat slowly, adding in the garlic to ensure it doesn't burn and become bitter.
• Add the beef to a mixing bowl and break up with your fingers.
• Tip in the onions and garlic, once cooled slightly and mix together thoroughly.
• Add salt and pepper and the dijon mustard.
• Pour in the egg and ensure that it has been mixed right the way through the beef and onions.
• Seperate the mixture into 4 portions and start moulding using your hands into burgers. Create a depression in the centre, this will ensure the burgers cook evenly and flat. Place in the fridge to chilled and stiffen.
• Once chilled and with the barbeque lit and the coals simmered down, place the burgers on the BBQ.
• Ensure that each side has sealed, if not they'll fall apart when you lift them off. Turn them over until cooked through or to the desired pinkness in the centre.
• Serve on crusty ciabatta with fresh watercress or leafy salad and enjoy. These can be frozen and defrosted for use later on.

Steps:

• In a non-stick skillet, heat 1 tsp oil and cook the minced veggies over medium heat until soft and moisture has evaporated.
• In a mixing bowl, mash beans.
• Stir in egg, bread crumbs, oregano, basil and slightly cooled veggies.
• Mix well.
• Divide into 4 patties.
• Place on plate and chill for at least 20 minutes.
• In same skillet, heat remaining oil and brown both sides until heated through.

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients.
• Shape into patties.
• Cook over medium skillet until done.
• Watch carefully because these burn easily.

Steps:

• In a big bowl, blend all the ingredients together, making sure your hands spread the seasoning evenly through the meat.
• Shape mixture into 6 patties, 1-inch thick.
• Lightly oil the grill or skillet over med-high heat; cook the burgers 6-8 minutes per side for medium; or until desired doneness.
• Serve on toasted sesame seed buns with prepared horseradish, romaine lettuce, and sliced tomato.

Steps:

• First, mix all the ingredients in a bowl and using your hands, shape into four balls.
• Turn the heat to medium under a heavy based frying pan and add a tiny amount of oil. When pan is hot, add the burgers, pushing them flat with a spatula.
• Cook for about 5 minutes each side for medium, longer for well done.
• Just before the burgers are ready, toast the inside of 4 wholemeal buns under a grill or in a toaster.
• My preference for serving them is a little Mayo on the bottom of the bun, then the burger with thin slices of raw onion, lettuce leafs and a slice of tomato. Topped off with a dap of ketchup and a good helping of English mustard on the top half of the bread.
• But, the great thing about making home made burgers is, you can add what you want. I like to serve them with home made fries.

Steps:

• Flavour the meat: Put the meat in a mixing bowl, then sprinkle over the chilli powder and a little salt and pepper. Mix well with your hands or use a fork. The mild chilli powder gives the meat added flavour without making it too spicy.
• Shape into burgers: Divide the mixture into 4 equal pieces, then shape with your hands into round burgers about the width of the buns, or pack the mixture into large presentation rings (if you have them) placed on a chopping board. You need to press down on the meat to compact it, then carefully lift off the rings - a bit like making sandcastles.
• Now get cooking: Fry the burgers on a hot griddle or grill them outside on the barbecue for 5 mins on each side, turning them carefully with a metal spatula. Take care as hot fat from the meat may spit a little.
• Top with cheese and toast the buns: If you want to make cheeseburgers, put a slice of cheese on top of the burgers when you turn them over and let it melt while the other side cooks. When they are ready, cut the burger baps in half and warm them in the toaster or on the barbecue - take care that you don't burn them.
• Prepare the toppings: Meanwhile, prepare the toppings of your choice. Separate the lettuce into leaves. Then, using a sharp knife, thinly slice the tomato, cucumber and gherkin on a separate board to the one you prepared the burgers on. Peel and finely chop the red onion.
• Assemble and enjoy: Spread a little mayonnaise or ketchup - or both if you like - onto the toasted buns, then top with your burgers and salads of your choice, followed by the remaining half bun.

Steps:

• Tip 500g beef mince into a bowl with 1 small diced onion and 1 egg, then mix.
• Divide the mixture into four. Lightly wet your hands. Carefully roll the mixture into balls, each about the size of a tennis ball.
• Set in the palm of your hand and gently squeeze down to flatten into patties about 3cm thick. Make sure all the burgers are the same thickness so that they will cook evenly.
• Put on a plate, cover with cling film and leave in the fridge to firm up for at least 30 mins.
• Heat the barbecue to medium hot (there will be white ash over the red hot coals - about 40 mins after lighting). Lightly brush one side of each burger with vegetable oil.
• Place the burgers, oil-side down, on the barbecue. Cook for 5 mins until the meat is lightly charred. Don't move them around or they may stick.
• Oil the other side, then turn over using tongs. Don't press down on the meat, as that will squeeze out the juices.
• Cook for 5 mins more for medium. If you like your burgers pink in the middle, cook 1 min less each side. For well done, cook 1 min more.
• Take the burgers off the barbecue. Leave to rest on a plate so that all the juices can settle inside.
• Slice four burger buns in half. Place, cut-side down, on the barbecue rack and toast for 1 min until they are lightly charred. Place a burger inside each bun, then top with your choice of accompaniment.
