Cherrycran Burgers Recipes

JUICIEST HAMBURGERS EVER

Steps:

• Preheat grill for high heat.

• Lightly oil the grill grate. Grill patties 5 minutes per side, or until well done.

CHEYENNE BURGER

Steps:

• Turkey
• Ground turkey tastes great in this combo-just make sure to use a mix of white and dark meat (90 percent lean) and cook for 5 minutes per side.
• Bacon
• This serious burger comes with two strips of bacon. Bobby likes them crisp.
• Onion Rings
• To make shoestring rings, heat 1 quart peanut oil to 360 degrees in a deep, heavy pot. Dredge thin Vidalia onion rings in flour seasoned with salt, pepper and cayenne; dip in buttermilk seasoned with salt and pepper, then dredge in more flour. Fry until golden brown, turning once or twice, about 4 minutes. Drain on paper towels; season with salt.
• Cheddar
• This extra-smoky burger calls for two thick slices of smoked sharp cheddar cheese.
• Bobby's BBQ Sauce
• Heat the oil over medium-high heat in a heavy-bottomed saucepan. Add the onion; cook until soft, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add the ketchup and 1/3 cup water, bring to a boil and simmer for 5 minutes. Add the remaining ingredients (except salt and pepper); simmer for 10 minutes, or until thickened, stirring occasionally.
• Transfer the mixture to a food processor; puree until smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Pour into a bowl; cool to room temperature. Spoon on burgers.
• Makes: 1 cup

ULTIMATE BACKYARD BURGER

Steps:

• For the ketchup: Saute the shallots and garlic in the olive oil in a large skillet over low heat until translucent, 4 to 6 minutes. Add the honey and cook for 2 to 3 minutes more. Add the tomatoes, corn syrup, vinegar, sugar and chipotle puree and simmer for 30 minutes. Puree the mixture in a blender or food processor, adding vegetable stock if the ketchup is too thick. Season with salt and pepper.
• For the mustard aioli: Combine the lemon juice and egg yolk in a food processor. Whisk together the canola and olive oil, and then slowly stream in until the mixture is thick and emulsified. Alternatively, this can be done in a mixing bowl with a whisk. Add the mustard, mustard powder and salt and combine. Season with more salt if needed.
• For the burger: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Heat the grill to high heat. Brush both sides of the bacon with some of the smoked chili ketchup. Place on a baking sheet and bake for 15 to 20 minutes, turning halfway through.
• Gently fold the butter into the ground meat along with the paprika and cumin. Form the beef mixture into 6 patties, and sprinkle both sides liberally with salt and black pepper.
• Brush the brioche buns on each side with olive oil and grill the insides until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Grill the burgers until medium rare, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Once you flip the burger, add a thick slice of the cheese to each and keep the cover closed to let melt.
• Spread the mustard aioli on one side of the buns and the smoked chili ketchup on the other. Place the burgers on the bun cheese-side up and top each with 2 strips of bacon.

THE BEST BACON CHEESEBURGER

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Combine the mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard, relish and vinegar in a small bowl; set aside.
• Working in batches if necessary, add the bacon to a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Cook, flipping halfway through, until crisp and golden, about 10 minutes. Transfer the bacon to a nonstick baking sheet. Discard the bacon fat (or save for another use) and wipe the skillet clean but do not wash. Heat over medium-high heat until very hot, about 5 minutes.
• Add the buns split-side up to the baking sheet with the bacon and bake until the buns are toasted, about 5 minutes.
• Loosely form the beef into 4 balls. Add one ball of beef to the skillet and press firmly to flatten with a large flat metal spatula for 10 seconds, then gently remove the spatula. Sprinkle the patty generously with salt; repeat with the remaining beef balls, cooking in batches if necessary. Let cook, undisturbed, until well browned on the bottoms, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip the patties, sprinkle with more salt and top each with a slice of Cheddar. Continue cooking until the cheese is melted around the edges and the bottoms are browned, about 2 more minutes.
• Spread the mayonnaise mixture on the bun tops. Serve the patties on the bottom buns topped with the bacon, onion, tomato and lettuce.

CHESAPEAKE BURGERS

Steps:

• Combine the beef, Old Bay and Worcestershire sauce in a medium bowl and mix with your hands. Form into 8 very thin 41/2-inch-wide patties and season lightly with salt and pepper.
• Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add 4 patties and cook until browned, about 2 minutes. Flip, top each patty with a slice of cheese and cook until the cheese starts melting, about 1 minute. Transfer to a large plate and tent with foil; wipe out the skillet. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil and repeat with the remaining patties and cheese.
• Meanwhile, toast the English muffins. Combine the Dijonnaise, chopped pickle and brine in a small bowl. Top each English muffin bottom with a lettuce leaf, 2 patties, tomato slices, the Dijonnaise mixture and an English muffin top. Serve with potato chips.

CLASSIC BURGER RECIPE

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, add all ingredients. Mix together using your hands until ingredients are barely combined (be sure to not overmix because then the hamburgers will become dense).
• Form the mixture into 8 patties. Be sure to make them a little larger than the patties that you plan to use because ground beef shrinks when it cooks.
• Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
• Lightly oil the grill grate and place patties on top of grill.
• Grill patties until no longer pink on the inside or until they reach desired doneness (I usually grill mine for about 5 minutes on each side).
• Place cooked burger on a hamburger bun and top with favorite toppings.

CHERRY/CRAN BURGERS

Steps:

• You'll want to juice the cranberries and cherries. I made juice the night before and saved the fruit pulp for my burgers. If cranberries are not available, double the cherries. You may want to add more salt and pepper or omit. Mix all together in bowl. Make patties. I made 6 burgers. Fry in frying pan or grill. I used my table top grill.
• fried onions would be good with it. I also topped them with honey mustard.

• In a bowl, mix the ground beef, ranch dressing mix, egg, crushed crackers, and onion. Form into hamburger patties.

CHICKPEA BURGERS

Steps:

• Place the chickpeas, carrot, garlic, onion, eggs and salt in a food processor and pulse until combined. Transfer to a medium bowl, add the breadcrumbs and sesame seeds and stir or gently knead to combine. The mixture will be moist.
• Scoop about 1/4 cup of the mixture with an ice cream scoop then form into a patty with your hands. You should have 9 patties.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches, cook the patties in a single layer until golden brown on the bottom, about 5 minutes. Flip the patties, reduce the heat to low and continue to cook until golden brown and heated through, about 5 minutes. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and repeat with the remaining patties.
• Serve on the buns with your desired toppings and condiments.

KITTENCAL'S JUICY HAMBURGER/BURGER

Steps:

• In a bowl crumble the ground beef with clean hands.
• Add in the dry soup mix, egg, garlic, breadcrumbs or crushed soda cracker crumbs, Worcestershire sauce, black pepper and hot sauce (if using).
• Using clean hands mix until combined, add in more breadcrumbs or cracker crumbs if needed to just hold the mixture together (do not overwork the meat or it will be tough).
• Divide the ground beef into 6 equal patties (or make 8 small patties).
• Using your large finger or the back of a small spoon make a shallow dent into the center of each patty (about 1-inch wide).
• Place the patties onto a large plate or a small cookie sheet; cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for a minimum of 6 hours or up to 24 hours to blend flavors.
• Grill or pan fry the burgers as desired until cooked through (if desired sprinkle a small amount of seasoned salt on top while cooking the patties).
• Serve burgers in toasted buns with choice of condiments.
• TIPS FOR EXTRA JUICINESS; shape the hamburger into a ball, press 1 tablespoon cold butter into the middle then seal the meat around the ball then flatten into burger shapes ----or add in 2-4 tablespoons raw finely grated potato into the hamburger mixture then shape into patties, use no more than 4 tablespoons for 2 pounds of ground beef or the burgers will take on a meatloaf texture.
