OKLAHOMA ONION BURGERS WITH CREAMY BBQ COLESLAW

Steps:

• Preheat a griddle, large griddle pan or large cast-iron skillet over medium heat for at least 10 minutes.
• Whisk together the barbecue sauce, mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons pepperoncini liquid, mustard, smoked paprika and vinegar in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
• Roughly chop the pepperoncini peppers and toss together with the coleslaw mix in a large bowl. Add three-quarters of the sauce and toss. Reserve the remaining sauce for the bun and burger.
• Loosely form the ground beef into 4 balls. Season with salt and pepper on all sides.
• Brush the griddle with canola oil and add 1 ball of beef griddle. Add 1/4 cup of the shaved onions on top of the ball and smash it down with a heavy metal spatula. You want to smash and spread the meatball, making sure those onions are pushed into the beef, and creating a patty that will be bigger than your bun. Cook until browned, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook until the onions are steamed and caramelized, about 2 minutes. For this burger, it's OK to give it another press with your spatula-we want that Maillard reaction (see Cook's Note). Top the burger with 1 tablespoon of the remaining mayonnaise mixture, then 2 slices of cheese and cook until melted, 1 minute. Repeat with the remaining beef, cooking in 2 batches.
• Meanwhile, spread the mayonnaise mixture on the bottom of the buns and cover with 4 dill pickle chips.
• Once the cheese has melted, place each burger on a bottom bun and top with 1/4 cup of the slaw mixture. Smash each top bun on the slaw and enjoy! Your friends will thank you.

BARBECUE TURKEY BURGERS WITH CREAMY COLE SLAW HOLDEN

Steps:

• Make burgers:
• In a small bowl stir together Worcestershire sauce, ketchup, soy sauce, garlic paste, chili powder, cumin, Tabasco, and salt and pepper to taste until sauce is smooth. In a large bowl stir together turkey, onion, bread crumbs, and 1/4 cup sauce until combined well and form into six 3/4-inch-thick patties. Burgers may be prepared up to this point 1 day ahead and chilled, covered. Divide remaining sauce in half and put in separate bowls, half for brushing burgers on the grill and half for drizzling on cooked burgers. Chill sauce, covered.
• Make cole slaw:
• In a large bowl whisk together mayonnaise, vinegar, sugar, and mustard. Add remaining cole slaw ingredients and salt and pepper to taste and toss to combine well. Cole slaw may be made 4 hours ahead and chilled, covered.
• Prepare grill.
• Grill burgers on an oiled rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals, brushing frequently with barbecue sauce, 6 minutes on each side, or until cooked through. Drizzle burgers with remaining barbecue sauce and serve with cole slaw in pita pockets.

GRILLED TURKEY BURGERS

Steps:

• Heat the grill to medium-high. Lightly grease a plate and set aside. Coarsely grate 1/4 cup onion; reserve the remaining onion. In a medium bowl, mix the turkey, grated onion and 2 tablespoons barbecue sauce. Form 4 patties about 4 ½ inches wide (about 5 ounces each). Press a small dimple in the center of each patty, then place the burgers on the plate and refrigerate until firm (at least 5 minutes or, covered, up to 2 days).
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, stir together the remaining 2 tablespoons barbecue sauce with the mayonnaise; season with 1 teaspoon each of salt and pepper.
• When ready to grill, dip the reserved onion in oil. Clean the grates with a grill brush, then grease the grates with the oiled onion. (This perfumes the grill and your patties.) Lightly coat the tops of the burgers with some of the mayo mixture (about 1/2 teaspoon per patty).
• Grill the burgers, mayo side down, until well browned and patties release from the grates, 4 to 6 minutes. (If flare-ups occur, move to an area of the grill where there are no flames underneath. For a gas grill, close the lid between flips, listening and keeping an eye out for flare-ups.) Spread mayo mixture on the tops of the patties, then flip and grill on the second side until cooked through, another 4 to 6 minutes.
• Transfer to a plate and let rest for at least 5 minutes. Grill the cut sides of the buns until toasted, 1 to 2 minutes. Build burgers on the buns with the patties and desired toppings and condiments.

BARBECUED PORK BURGERS WITH SLAW

Steps:

• Prepare grill for direct-heat cooking over medium-hot charcoal (medium heat for gas).
• Thinly slice enough cabbage with slicer to measure 2 cups. Whisk together mayonnaise, milk, and 1 1/2 teaspoons vinegar until smooth, then toss with cabbage, carrots, chives, and salt and pepper to taste. Let coleslaw stand at room temperature, uncovered, while making burgers.
• Stir together barbecue sauce, cayenne, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and remaining tablespoon vinegar until combined well.
• Mix together pork, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and 2 tablespoons barbecue sauce mixture until combined (do not overmix), then form into 4 (3/4-inch-thick) burgers (4 inches in diameter).
• Oil grill rack, then grill patties, covered only if using a gas grill, turning over occasionally, until just cooked through, about 6 minutes total. Brush top of each patty with 1 tablespoon barbecue sauce mixture, then turn over and grill 30 seconds. Brush top of each patty with 1 tablespoon barbecue sauce, then turn over and grill 30 seconds more.
• Brush cut sides of rolls with remaining 1/4 cup barbecue sauce, then sandwich patties and coleslaw between rolls.
