Homemade Burger Mix

[Anonymous No.6564784]

So this weekend I'm having my Brother and his GF over, and we are planning on doing BBQ. Now usually I just do a burger with some salt, pepper, garlic, and rosemary, but I've spent the last half hour looking online for other hamburger mix recipes. Something that would really wow them. I need some help /ck/, what is your goto hamburger recipe?

[Anonymous No.6564791]

Don't make the burgers too fancy- they'll most likely just get toppings thrown all over them and mask the flavor of your seasoning.

I just use seasoning salt, pepper, little garlic powder, and a bit of Worcestershire sauce for my burgers.

Just beef. Perhaps some salt and pepper.

Most other recipes are silly because the various things that people tend to add to the patty have different cooking times than the meat. Use good beef and don't fuck with it. Save your fancy additions for toppings, not for adding into the patty.

My go-to:
50/50 mix of short rib and sirloin. Grind fresh, form the patties by hand right before cooking.

[Anonymous No.6564801]

my goto is literally just good ass beef and salt.

[Anonymous No.6564804]

I usually find less is best.

For me it's:

Salt, pepper, tomato paste, English mustard, and maybe done dried herb if there's any about. Just buy good meat and let that do the flavour.

[Anonymous No.6565550]

I'm witht he above. salt and pepper, only.

The only time I do something extra is to stuff them with something. When you go to extras to add to the beef, it tends to get overmixed and tough, and it gets covered with ketchup, mustard, etc.

[Anonymous No.6565564]

mix together the following:

1lb 85/15 ground beef
1 finely chopped white onion
1 tsp dijon mustard
1 tbsp ground black pepper
2 tsp salt
2 tsp Worcestershire sauce

form into patties, indent in the middle, place on grill. heat until meat is medium-well. Throw on some grilled thick tomato slices and some blue cheese and you've got a delicious burger.

[Anonymous No.6565568]

salt
pepper
ketchup
Worcestershire sauce
1 egg per 1lbs of beef
onions

Hamburgers are good because they're not fancy. You eat your fucking burger with your friends, have a good time, and that's that. Trying to complicate a hamburger misses the point.

You can do variations, but keep it simple. Ground beef, 80/20, seasoned with a little salt, pepper, maybe some garlic powder, then toss it on the grill. That's the base.

If you're determined to be fancy, make some chili (red or green), make some barbecue sauce, fry some bacon, fry an egg. Just don't overcomplicate a fucking hamburger.

that's not really a good burger though. I mean its fine, you could eat it, but any burger lover isn't gonna go crazy over it

[Anonymous No.6565639]

The best thing you can do for your burgers is grind them yourself.

>grind chuck roast
>salt and pepper
>medium rare

wala best burger you've had

[Anonymous No.6565648]

>>6565639
this is extremely good advice. go to a butcher and have them do it for you, only takes a couple seconds. I'd season it a little more though if you want to 'wow' your guests. lawreys is awesome for burgers. I'd put a little minced garlic in each patty as well. lawreys, pepper, garlic, and a splash of worcestershire. perfect.

[Anonymous No.6565666]

>>6565648
I would still advise grinding it yourself, I wouldn't trust eating it med rare if it's been through the same grinder. Maybe if it's a butcher I really trust, definitely not a supermarket.

[Anonymous No.6565675]

I use Gordon Ramsay's recipe and i like it a lot.
Salt
Pepper
Get bacon, cut into little cubes, fry , dry, add to the beef
Then add some paprika
I also like adding some processed onions to the mix but that's just me.

>>6565572
he said less is best, not bare minimum.

salt, pepper, tomato, mustard, and herbs is pretty simple. unless you're stupid.

you're not stupid, are you anon?

[Anonymous No.6565683]

yes yes yes my friend. Meat loaf sandwich, pretending to be a burger is the best burger.

Why haven't i added garlic powder to my burgers yet? I fucking love garlic so much. God damnit now i'm really hungry.

[Anonymous No.6565699]

Done.

[Anonymous No.6565740]

>>6565688
garlic powder is fine but salt+fresh minced garlic is better, I promise. I don't know why but garlic really shows through ground beef more than anything else imo.

[Anonymous No.6565744]

>>6565666
I only said that because not everyone has a meat grinder. I know I don't. Also I love my local butcher shop and trust them wholeheartedly.

[Anonymous No.6567466]

Just some medium ground chuck, and then salt and pepper it. The grill that bitch up

How critical is egg? I mean, is it needed to hold everything together or something?

Meatloaf sandwiches are awesome. Do this OP

[Anonymous No.6569110]

>>6564784

just salt and pepper for the patties

wow them with the toppings

chipotle mayonnaise, bacon, good cheese and such

>>6568951

> critical

Not necessary at all

maybe if your beef is very low fat, though I've made 8% lamb burgers with nothing but meat and spices.

[Anonymous No.6569146]

I like to blend ginger, garlic, and a bit of water to make it into a paste. Mix a little bit of the paste along with some rosemary with the meat and season it with salt and pepper on the grill.

Fuck off shill

[Anonymous No.6569161]

Have put this on burgers for years. Dat delicious MSG....

[Anonymous No.6569202]

I just use some kosher salt, fresh ground black pepper and mix it in then just a very light amount of lawry's seasoned salt sprinkled on the outside. Like a really small amount. Some times instead of the lawry's, I will add a small amount of worcestershire sauce into the meat instead. For non-traditional, I get a block of buffalo wing cheddar cheese and cut it up into 1/4 inch cubes, mix it in with the meat and make patties and cook my buffalo burgers. (with beef not buffalo meat...just call them that because well..you know why..)

you could find a bunch of uses for meat grinders tbf

[Anonymous No.6569497]

Why do you need a burger recipe if you're making barbecue? Do you mean to say you're just grilling?

[Anonymous No.6569547]

If you have a kitchenaid, there's a great meat grinder attachment for it.

And a cuisinart makes a great "loose style" burger.

No, definitely, you fucking mong. What kind of moron cooks meat without seasoning it? When it comes to beef, salt and pepper are never optional.

[Anonymous No.6569634]

>>6569630
This. Grilling is grilling. Barbecuing is barbecuing. You wouldn't call roasting and broiling the same thing, would you?

[Anonymous No.6569640]

>>6569632

i still don't really understand why people put salt and pepper together like they do the same sort of job. pepper is way more optional than salt

no, you'd call them roasting and grilling.

>smoked salt if u have it
>black pepper
>finely minced shallot
>fennel seeds, lightly crushed
>a small amount of nutmeg if desired

serve with a good cheddar, sage aioli, and chopped up celery fronds instead of lettuce.

don't serve it with french fries unless you know how to make them correctly.

Please stay on topic. This is an American image board.

[Anonymous No.6570126]

My two cents on grilling and BBQing:

American here (Vermont) and we always seem to say we're going to a barbecue, when there isn;t barbecue there- there are hotdogs and hamburgers.

That said, I don't anyone who says you barbecue a hotdog or a hamburger.

85/15 or 80/20 beef.

salt
pepper
finely minced onion
finely minced garlic
worcestershire sauce
