The Perfect Burger

By CountryLady

Ingredients Nutrition

  • BURGER

  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon mustard (regular or Dijon)
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 small onion, finely grated
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 12 teaspoon salt
  • 12 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 lb medium ground beef
  • FLAVOUR PERK STIR-INS

  • 1 tablespoon creamy Caesar salad dressing or 1 tablespoon Greek salad dressing
  • 1 tablespoon chopped sun-dried tomato
  • 1 tablespoon sour cream or 1 tablespoon yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon grated fresh lemon rind or 1 tablespoon lime rind
  • 1 tablespoon grated ginger root
  • 1 tablespoon ketchup or 1 tablespoon barbecue sauce
  • 1 teaspoon lemon pepper
  • 1 teaspoon curry powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano or 1 teaspoon dried thyme or 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1 tablespoon fresh herb
  • 2 teaspoons Cajun seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon teriyaki sauce or 1 teaspoon hoisin sauce
  • 1 fresh jalapenos or 1 pickled jalapeno pepper, chopped

To Make:

1. Lightly oil grill& heat BBQ to medium.

2. Whisk egg in a bowl& add next 6 ingredients.

3. Add any of the “stir-ins” that appeal to you.

4. Crumble in beef& using your hands or a fork, gently mix together.

5. Handle the meat as little as possible – the more you work it, the tougher it gets.

6. Gently shape (don’t firmly press) mixture into burgers about ¾ inch thick.
Using your thumb, make a shallow depression in the centre of each burger to prevent puffing up during cooking.

7. Place burgers on the grill, close lid& BBQ until NO LONGER PINK INSIDE, turning once, about 6 – 8 minutes per side. An instant read thermometer should read 160F.

8. Don't abuse your burgers by pressing with a spatula, pricking with a fork or turning frequently as precious juices will be lost!

9. Tuck into a warm crusty bun& add your favourite toppings.
