BISTRO BURGERS

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium high. Cook the bacon in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, turning, until crisp. Drain the bacon on paper towels, reserving 2 tablespoons bacon drippings.
• Form the beef into four 6-ounce patties, about 3/4 inch thick; press the center of each patty with your thumb to make a 1/2-inch-deep indentation. Season the patties on both sides with salt and pepper. Lightly brush the grill grates with vegetable oil, then grill the patties, indentation-side up, until marked on the bottom, about 5 minutes. Flip and cook until marked and slightly firm, about 3 more minutes for medium doneness. Remove the patties to a plate and let rest 5 minutes. Grill the buns, cut-side down, until lightly toasted, about 1 minute.
• Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in the same skillet over medium-high heat. Add the eggs and fry until the yolks are set but still runny, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Whisk the mustard, the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, the reserved 2 tablespoons bacon drippings and the shallot in a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Add the frisee and toss; season with salt and pepper.
• Spread the bun bottoms with mustard. Top with the burger patties, bacon, frisee salad and fried eggs. Cover with the bun tops.

MUSHROOM AND BEEF BLENDED BURGERS FOR THE GRILL

Steps:

• Preheat a grill for medium-high heat.
• Pulse the sweet potato in a food processor until evenly and finely chopped, scraping down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula as needed, about 10 pulses. Transfer to a large bowl. Pulse the mushrooms in the food processor until evenly and finely chopped, scraping down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula as needed, about 8 pulses. Add to the sweet potato along with the ground beef, egg, cornstarch, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper, then mix with your hands until combined. Form the meat mixture into 4 patties, each about 4 inches in diameter. Season each side with a good pinch of salt and a few good grinds of pepper; set aside.
• Toss the scallions and poblano with the oil. Grill the scallions until lightly charred, turning halfway through with grilling tongs, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board. Grill the poblano, turning occasionally, until charred all over and tender, about 8 minutes. Transfer to cutting board. Grill the hamburger buns until lightly toasted and have some grill marks, about 30 seconds. Transfer to a serving platter.
• Brush the grill grates with some oil. Place the patties on the grill and cook, undisturbed (and with the grill uncovered), until the first side has developed nice grill marks, 3 1/2 to 4 minutes. Carefully flip the burgers with a metal spatula and continue to cook until well browned all over, about 2 minutes more. Top each burger with 1 slice of cheese, then cover and cook until the cheese has melted and the burger has reached medium doneness, about 1 minute more. Transfer to the bottom bun halves.
• Thinly slice the scallions and place in a small bowl. Stir in the mayonnaise, lime zest and juice, a good pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper. Spread the mixture on the top bun halves. Thinly sliced the poblano, then divide among the burgers. Top evenly with the pickled jalapenos and lettuce. Sandwich with the top bun halves.

BISTRO-STYLE GRILLED MUSHROOM SLIDERS

Steps:

• Place the mushrooms in a medium bowl or baking dish. Mix the olive oil, soy sauce, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce and 1 tablespoon of the Dijon in a small bowl or measuring cup. Pour the marinade over the mushrooms, flipping to make sure each is coated. Let marinate for 30 minutes at room temperature.
• While the mushrooms are marinating, prepare a grill or grill pan for medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates with olive oil, then place the shallots on the grill and grill on both sides until they are softened, charred around the edges and have grill marks, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove the shallots to a plate or work surface.
• Next add the split rolls to the grill, cut-side down. Grill, in batches if necessary, until they have grill marks, 45 to 60 seconds, then remove to a platter or work surface.
• Place the mushrooms stem-side down on the grill. Cook until the mushrooms start to develop grill marks and soften and brown all over the bottom, 4 to 6 minutes. Flip the mushrooms and cook until browned and softened on the bottom, 4 to 6 minutes. Flip again (to stem side down), turn off the heat, add the cheese, if using and cover (use a large metal bowl or aluminum foil on a grill pan) until the cheese is melted, 1 to 2 minutes.
• While the mushrooms cook and cheese melts, mix the remaining 2 tablespoons Dijon and the mayonnaise together. Dividing evenly, spread the mixture on both toasted halves of the rolls. Add the grilled shallots to the top half of the rolls, and the tomatoes and lettuce to the bottom halves. Transfer your mushrooms to the rolls, dividing evenly. Close the sandwiches, using a toothpick to secure if desired.

DOUBLE-STACK MUSHROOM AND CHICKEN CHEESEBURGERS

Steps:

• Pulse mushrooms with ½ tsp. Diamond Crystal or ¼ tsp. Morton kosher salt in a food processor until very finely chopped. (Alternatively, finely chop mushrooms by hand, then toss with salt in a medium bowl and let sit 2 minutes.) Transfer mushrooms to a clean kitchen towel, gather ends together, and wring over bowl to remove as much moisture as possible. Reserve liquid for another use.
• Mix mushrooms and chicken in a large bowl with your hands until well combined. Divide mixture into 8 balls and gently form into patties about ¼" thick. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet.
• Prepare a grill for high heat; lightly oil grate. Drizzle onion with oil and season with salt. Grill on cooler edges of grill, turning occasionally, until slightly softened and charred, about 8 minutes. Transfer onion to a platter.
• Season tops of patties with salt and pepper. Place, seasoned side down, on grate and season second side with salt and pepper. Grill until edges are browned, about 2 minutes. Flip and top with cheese. Grill until patties are cooked through and cheese is melted, about 2 minutes. Transfer patties to platter with onion.
• Grill buns, cut side down, until lightly charred, about 30 seconds. Spread cut sides of bottom buns with mayonnaise and top buns with mustard. Layer pickles, grilled onion, 2 patties, and lettuce on bottom buns, then close up burgers.

MUSHROOM-BEEF BURGERS

Steps:

• Heat a grill to medium-high and oil the grates. (The burgers can also be cooked in a lightly greased nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes per side.)
• In a food processor, working in 2 batches, pulse the mushrooms, scraping down the sides and bottom, until finely chopped but not puréed. Transfer to a large bowl and add the beef. Mix until well blended, then form into 8 equal patties, each about 4 inches wide.
• Season the patties with salt and pepper, and grill until lightly charred underneath, 3 to 5 minutes. Gently flip burgers and grill until golden and cooked to medium, 3 to 4 minutes longer, topping each with a slice of cheese during the last minute of cooking. Transfer burgers to a large platter.
• Build burgers with buns, preferred toppings and condiments.
