Master Chef Burger 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:

• Gently combine meats, S&P. Form 4 1' thick pattties, refrigerate until ready to grill. Combine vinegar, 1/2 c olive oil and onions in a bowl, marinate at least 30 min. Simmer garlic in remaining oil 10-15 min, unitl tender. Discard oil. Puree garlic and mayo in processor, refrigerate. Preheat grill to med. Pat onions dry and grill 3 min per side. Grill burgers, 8 min per side. Add 2 slices of brie to each during last 5 min. Spread 1 T garlic mayo on each half of bun, top w/ watercress.

Steps:

• Evenly divide meat into 4 portions. With a light touch, gently form each one into a ball, then shape into a 3/4-inch-thick patty. With thumb, make a 1/4-inch-deep indentation in the center of each (this prevents burgers from getting rounded tops during grilling). Transfer to a plate; cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate until ready to cook, up to 1 day.
• Heat grill to high (it should be difficult to hold your hand above the grates). Moisten a folded paper towel with vegetable oil; grasp with tongs, and quickly wipe over the grates.
• Generously season patties on both sides with salt and pepper. Place patties on grill; cover, and cook to desired doneness, 2 to 4 minutes per side for medium-rare. Serve burgers on buns with desired toppings.
