How to Make Gourmet Grilled Restaurant Style Hamburgers

Everyone loves hamburgers and they have been an American backyard barbecue joy for decades. Gourmet hamburgers are a step above old-fashioned hamburgers in which all the tasty ingrediets are stacked on top. With gourmet burgers, the taste is inside the burgers and delicious through and through.

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Things You’ll Need:

• Lean ground sirloin
• Worchestshire sauce or barbecue sauce
• Yellow onion
• Jalapeno pepper
• Cheddar cheese

1. Chop onion and jalapeno pepper into very small pieces. Grate cheddar cheese. For 1 lb. of ground sirloin, use 1 medium fresh jalapeno pepper and 2 green onions or one-half of a medium-sized yellow onion. One pound of ground sirloin will make 4 quarter-pound burgers. Use about 2 tablespoons of grated cheddar chese per burger.
2. Place ground sirloin in mixing bowl and add 4 tablespoons of worcestshire sauce OR barbecue sauce. Mix very well with a spoon. Then add chopped onion and jalapeno pepper. Divide mixture into 4 parts. With your hands roll each part into a firm ball.
3. Make an indentation in each ball and fill with grated cheddar cheese. Fold the ball over to completely surround the cheese as you do not want cheese to be directly exposed to the grill.
4. Smash each ball flat and round. Grill on a very hot grill for about 8 minutes on each side for medium-well or to your preference. You will not need condiments for these burgers as the flavor is sealed inside!

Tips & Warnings

• Wash hands thoroughly after coming into contact with raw meat.
• Chopped green onions may be substituted for the yellow onion. If so, use 1-2 green onions per pound of beef.
