Burgers
- 2 lbs lean ground beef
- 1 tablespoon peanut oil
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1⁄2 cup diced onion
- 1⁄2 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 -2 small hot chili, minced
- 1 -2 garlic clove, minced
- 1⁄2 teaspoon grated ginger
- 1⁄2 teaspoon grains of paradise, grounded
- 1 -2 tablespoon peanut butter
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped dry unsalted peanuts (optional)
- 1 teaspoon tomato paste
-
Additions
- 6 hamburger buns
- 1 tomatoes, sliced
- shredded cabbage or lettuce
- 6 slices cheese
directions
- Place meat in a large bowl.
- Pour oil and Worcestershire sauce over onions in a microwave proof bowl.
- Place in Microwave oven for 1-2 minutes to soften onions. Cool.
- Place all the rest of the burger ingredients in the bowl with the beef. Add the cooked onion mixture. Mix just to blend ingredients.
- Make 6 patties not handling too much and indent the center or make a hole through the center of the burger. The hole will close as cooks. This stops the burger from puffing to much in the center.
- Preheat grill on HIGH for 10 minute.
- Coat grill lightly with vegetable oil.
- Grill rolls, cut side down 30 seconds; remove and set aside.
- Sear meat on grill, about 2 min, until meat has changed color about one-quarter way up from bottom. Turn over. Sear 1 to 3 minute.
- Reduce heat to MEDIUM (for most burgers) or LOW (for burgers thicker than 1 inch); close lid.
- Cook burgers to 160 degrees internal temperature. Check by inserting digital thermometer halfway into thickest part of burger.
- Top with cheese; close lid. Grill until cheese starts to melt, 1 minute. Place each burger on rolls topped with cabbage and tomato. Go ahead and add some ketchup. ENJOY!
