Stuffed Ranch Burgers With Citrus Slaw Recipes

SWEET & TANGY CITRUS SLAW

STUFFED RANCH BURGERS WITH CITRUS SLAW

Steps:

• Take the cabbage and slice it into 1/4 inch rings, then chop into fine strips. Place in a large bowl, add the olive oil and lime juice, then tear the cilantro with your fingers and toss in the bowl as well as a heaping pinch of salt and pepper. Mix thoroughly, adjusting the salt and pepper to taste. Cover and place in the fridge until the burgers are ready to be plated.
• Place the beef in a large bowl and cover with the ranch dressing, then mix until the two are fully incorporated. Separate the beef into 6 balls, about 1/4 lb. each, then press a deep indentation into the center of the ball, creating a bowl. Place a heaping tablespoon of shredded cheese into the indention, then pull the edges together to seal the beef over the cheese. Press down gently with your hand to flatten out the patties. Generously salt and pepper each patty.
• Prepare a grill at high heat, brush the grate down with oil and grill each burger for 3 minutes on one side before flipping, then another 3 minutes for medium rare, and around 6-8 minutes for well done.
• Top each burger with a slice of cheese before removing from the grill, then place on a bun layered with ranch dressing and tomato, top with the citrus slaw and top bun and enjoy!

BUFFALO CHICKEN BURGERS & RANCH SLAW

Steps:

• Tip the chicken into a large bowl. Mix the hot sauce with the paprika, maple syrup, vinegar, garlic granules and butter in a separate bowl. Pour this over the chicken, toss, cover and chill overnight.
• The next day, make the ranch slaw. Tip the cabbage, onion, celery, mayonnaise, soured cream, vinegar and chives into a medium bowl, then season to taste and mix until everything is well-combined.
• Light the barbecue. When the coals are ashen, put the chicken on the grill and cook for 8 mins on each side, basting with the leftover marinade as you go. Alternatively, cook the chicken under a hot grill for 8-10 mins on each side, basting with the marinade. When the chicken is cooked through, put half a slice of cheese on each piece and leave to melt for 1 min. Put two chicken thighs on the base of each bun, spoon over some slaw and sandwich with the bun tops.

3 CHEESE STUFFED RANCH BURGERS

Steps:

• 1. For this recipe, you will need 2 packages of dry ranch seasoning packets. I used an off-brand variety with great results and flavor.
• 2. Mince the garlic, chop the shallot, and grate the small onion.
• 3. Combine the Feta with the shredded mozzarella.
• 4. Add the ground chuck to a large bowl. Then add the eggs, panko, minced garlic, ranch seasoning, chopped shallots and grated onion, as well as the Worcestershire sauce & steak seasoning. Combine together but do not handle too much. Just enough so meat holds together.
• 5. Shape the ground beef into balls of equal size. Should get 14 total. Then pat them out flat and make a well in the center of the first burger. Then fill well with feta and mozzarella mixture. Next, flatten out another burger, and place over the burger with the cheese filling. Then press edges of burger together to seal.
• 6. Place on a large platter till all are complete. Heat a heavy bottom skillet (I used a 16-inch skillet) over medium-high heat. Then add all of the burgers or as many as you can without overcrowding. Allow to cook about 4-5 minutes on bottom side.
• 7. Then place the skillet in preheated 350 degree F oven and continue to cook for another 4-5 minutes or until desired doneness. Then add a slice of sharp cheddar cheese to each burger and leave in oven for 1 to 1 1/2 minutes until cheese melts. Remove from oven and serve on toasted buns if desired with tomato slices, grilled onions, & flat pickles.
• 8. Serve with your favorite fries or onion rings.
