Course: Grilling Recipe, Lunch, Main Course, Party Recipe

Cuisine: American, BBQ, Brew Pub/Bar Food

Keyword: Burgers

Ingredients

• 16 ounces Ground Chuck
• 1 teaspoon Kosher Salt
• 1/4 teaspoon cracked Black Pepper
• 2 Sesame Brioche Buns
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted Butter
• 2 slices Cheddar Cheese
• 2 leaves Boston Bib Lettuce
• 2 slices ripe Beefsteak Tomato
• 2 thin slices Red Onion
• 4 slices Bacon cooked crisp
• 8 Kosher Pickle Chips

Instructions

• Place ground chuck into a medium mixing bowl.
• Add salt and pepper. Mix the salt and pepper into the beef using your hands. Mix well, but do not overwork the beef.
• Divide the beef in two fairly equal portions. Form each portion into a patty - but, again, just gently form the patty, don’t overwork it. (This is a big key to making good burgers at home. Most home cooks "overwork" the beef causing the burgers to be hard and tough. You want a patty that is loose and just barely holds together.) This can be done in advance. Store burgers on a plate, covered, in the refrigerator until ready to use.
• Preheat the grill on high.
• While grill is heating, slice buns and open them up.
• Generously butter each side.
• Carry burgers and buns to the grill.
• Place patties on the grill. Cook for about 4 minutes. Flip and cook to desired temperature. Be sure to only flip the burgers once. (And whatever you do … don’t press the burgers! This is another BIG mistake of home cooks.)
• Add the cheese on top of the burger and let it melt.
• Place the buns, buttered side down, on the grill a bit away from the highest heat (around the edge is good) and toast lightly. Watch carefully, or they will burn.
• Remove buns and burgers to separate plates and carry to your work area.
• Assemble each burger on a bottom bun from the bottom up in this order - lettuce, tomato, onion, burger, bacon, pickles and the top of the bun.
• Serve hot with various condiments of choice (although this burger really doesn't need any!) and some good Cole Slaw and Potato Salads.
