BUFFALO CHICKEN BURGERS RECIPE

Steps:

• Gently combine the first 11 ingredients in a large bowl, be careful not to over mix. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and place the bowl in the refrigerator for 20 to 30 minutes. You can do this step the night before.
• Heat your grill (or grill pan) to medium-high heat. Brush the grill with olive oil.
• Remove the bowl from the refrigerator, divide the meat into thirds, and form your patties.
• Grill the burgers for 3 to 4 minutes per side (depending on the burger thickness), or until they reach an internal temperature of 165 F.
• Serve the burgers on buns, with the baby greens and blue cheese sauce.

KRAZY KOREAN BURGERS

Steps:

• With the motor running on a food processor, drop in the garlic and ginger and process until finely chopped. Add pancetta, onion, chile flakes, soybean paste, chile paste, sugar and pepper and process until fairly smooth. Set the pancetta mixture aside.
• Crumble the beef into a large bowl. Add the seltzer, sesame seeds, pancetta mixture and some salt and pepper and gently mix together with your hands, being careful not to overwork the mixture. Form the mixture into 4 patties, each about 1 inch thick and 4 inches wide. Create a depression in the center of one side of each patty, as burgers tend to rise in the middle during cooking and this will help the burgers come out flat. If not cooking immediately, cover the patties and refrigerate.
• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Put the patties in the skillet depression-side up and cook, flipping halfway through, until browned and cooked through, about 7 minutes total.
• Meanwhile, heat a two-burner griddle/grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Spread both sides of the buns with the butter and cook cut-side down until lightly toasted, about 1 minute. (If working in batches, toast the bottom buns first.) Transfer to individual plates.
• Put a patty on each bottom bun and top with lettuce and then the Cucumber Kimchi. Smear some Korean Ketchup and Doenjang Mayonnaise on the top buns and place on the burgers. Secure with bamboo skewers or long toothpicks and serve immediately.
• Cut each cucumber crosswise into 2-inch slices with a small knife. Stand the slices on their cut sides and cut each one two-thirds of the way down into quarters, keeping them attached at the bottom. Sprinkle the cucumbers with the salt, spreading the cucumbers open to get the salt deep inside the cuts. Arrange the cucumbers with their cross-cut sides up in a single layer in a glass or other nonreactive container that is at least 2 inches tall and that has a tight-fitting lid. Cover and let soften at room temperature for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
• Meanwhile, combine the scallions, onion, chile flakes, shrimp, garlic, ginger and 2 tablespoons water in a food processor. Pulse until a coarse spice paste forms, then stir in the chives.
• Rinse the salted cucumbers well under cold water, making sure to rid the crevices of all the salt. Shake dry and then press the spice paste all over and into the crevices of each piece. Return the cucumbers to the (rinsed) container, cross-cut sides up, packing them somewhat tightly and pressing in any remaining spice paste and liquid. Cover and let the cucumbers ferment at room temperature for about 24 hours. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
• Stir together the ketchup and chile paste in a small bowl. Cover and store in the refrigerator if not using immediately.
• Whisk together the mayonnaise and soybean paste in a small bowl until smooth. Cover and store in the refrigerator if not using immediately.

PERFECT BURGER

Steps:

• Divide the meat into 4 equal portions (about 6 ounces each). Form each portion loosely into a 3/4-inch-thick burger and make a deep depression in the center with your thumb. Season both sides of each burger with salt and pepper.
• IF USING A GRILL: Heat a gas grill to high or heat coals in a charcoal grill until they glow bright orange and ash over. Brush the burgers with the oil. Grill the burgers until golden brown and slightly charred on the first side, about 3 minutes for beef and 5 minutes for turkey. Flip over the burgers. Cook beef burgers until golden brown and slightly charred on the second side, 4 minutes for medium rare (3 minutes if topping with cheese; see step 3) or until cooked to desired degree of doneness. Cook turkey burgers until cooked throughout, about 5 minutes on the second side.
• IF USING A GRILL PAN: Heat a grill pan over high heat on top of the stove. Cook the burgers as for a grill, above.
• IF USING A SAUTE PAN OR GRIDDLE (PREFERABLY CAST IRON): Heat the oil in the pan or griddle over high heat until the oil begins to shimmer. Cook the burgers until golden brown and slightly charred on the first side, about 3 minutes for beef and 5 minutes for turkey. Flip over the burgers. Cook beef burgers until golden brown and slightly charred on the second side, 4 minutes for medium rare (3 minutes if topping with cheese) or until cooked to desired degree of doneness. Cook turkey burgers until cooked throughout, about 5 minutes on the second side.
• Add the cheese, if using, to the tops of the burgers during the last minute of cooking and top with a basting cover, close the grill cover, or tent the burgers with aluminum foil to melt the cheese.
• Sandwich the hot burgers between the buns and serve immediately.

CRAZY BURGER

Steps:

• For the Southern slaw: Add the cabbage, jalapeno, mayonnaise, white vinegar and sugar to a large bowl and toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside until ready to serve.
• For the burger: Place a large saute pan over medium heat. Once the pan is hot, add the olive oil followed by the onions and saute until just starting to brown, about 3 minutes. Add the agave and balsamic vinegar and toss to combine. Cook for about 10 minutes or until they reach your desired caramelized color. Set aside until ready to serve.
• Divide the beef into 8 even sections and form into patties. Sprinkle the patties on both sides with salt and pepper. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and add 2 ounces canola oil. Let get hot, then add the patties and cook 5 minutes per side or until they reach your desired doneness, frying in batches and adding oil as needed. Remove the patties from the skillet and top each with a slice of American cheese.
• Fry the eggs over-easy in the same skillet over medium-high heat, about 4 minutes.
• Place some mayonnaise on the bun bottoms and tops. Add 2 cheese-topped patties, a fried egg, onions and slaw to each, and finish with the bun tops. Serve.

CHORIZO BURGER

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix together the ground sirloin and chorizo using your hands. Set aside to let the flavors blend.
• Heat one tablespoon of oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add one chopped onion, and saute until tender. Transfer the onion to a blender, and add the red pepper, Ranch dressing, saffron, and paprika. Pulse until fairly smooth. Refrigerate until needed.
• Heat the remaining oil in a large skillet over medium heat, and add the remaining onions, brown sugar, salt and pepper. Cook and stir for about 15 minutes until the onions are golden brown. Set aside.
• Preheat the grill for high heat. Form the meat into four patties, slightly larger than the buns.
• Place burgers on the grill, and cook for 5 minutes per side, or until well done. Split buns in half, and spread butter on the inside. Place on the grill to toast briefly.
• Place burgers onto buns, and top with caramelized onion and the roasted pepper ranch sauce. Sprinkle with a few shavings of manchego cheese, and place the top of the bun on top.
