GRILLED JUICY LUCY BURGER

Steps:

• Place 2 lbs. of ground hamburger in a mixing bowl. Add 1 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce to the hamburger and combine with your hands.
• Divide the meat into 4 equal portions. Divide each portion in half and form each portion into a patty (should be 8 total patties).
• Cut 4 slices of smoked Gouda (or cheese of choice) into quarters. Place the sliced cheese into 4 stacks.
• Place each stack of cheese onto one of the burger patties.
• Place two burger patties together around the cheese and use your hands to press the patties together. Try to form one patty around the cheese. Seal the edges of the patty with your fingers.
• Place the patties on a clean surface (there should be four patties) and sprinkle one side with a generous amount of salt and pepper. Sprinkle 1/2 tsp. garlic powder and onion powder on top of patties.
• Place the burgers (spice side down) onto the hottest part of a grill. Spice the other side of the burgers with more salt and pepper and another 1/2 tsp. of garlic and onion powder. Sear the burgers for 3 minutes per side and then move them to the edges of the grill. Cook for another 4-5 minutes per side on the edges of the grill. The safe internal temperature for ground beef is 160 degrees Fahrenheit. This can be tested using a food thermometer. However, cooking times will vary depending on how well done you like your burgers.
• Toast the buns for a minute or so on the grill if desired.
• Let the burgers rest for a minute before serving. Place the grilled burgers on the toasted gluten free buns (or buns of choice) and finish with your favorite toppings.

• Preheat a grill or a grill pan on medium-high heat. Lightly brush the grill with oil.
• With your thumb, make a slight depression in the center of each patty, to help the hamburgers cook evenly and maintain their shape.
• Cook the hamburgers, dimpled side up, for 4 minutes. Turn and cook them on the other side, about 3 more minutes for medium doneness.*
• If you'd like to make cheeseburgers, you can top each burger patty with a slice of your favorite cheese during the last minute of grilling. Cover the grill or the grill pan so that the cheese can melt.

BEST-EVER GRILLED TURKEY BURGERS

Steps:

• or large plate with parchment paper, wax paper, or aluminum foil. Set aside.
• Arrange a few paper towels out on a cutting board, set a box mixer on top. Run the onion along the sides of the box mixer to grate it into fine, shredded pieces. Once grated, use the paper towel to soak up excess moisture from the onion. Too much moisture will make the turkey burger mixture very difficult to handle, so do not skip the extra 30 seconds it takes to blot the moisture from the grated onion. If your onion seems very wet, you can also wrap it in paper towels & wring out the moisture over the sink.
• Add the ground turkey, grated onion, garlic, mayonnaise, Worcestershire sauce, kosher salt & ground black pepper to a large bowl. Using your hands, mix until just combined. Overworking the turkey burger mixture will lead to tough burgers; take care not to overmix.
• Divide the turkey burger mixture into 4 even portions, about 1/3 pound (5.3 ounces) each. Lightly coat your hands in oil (or mist with nonstick cooking spray) & form each portion into a 1-inch thick patty. The mixture will be very wet at this point, so there's no need to fuss over making your burgers look perfect - just aim for forming them into the general shape & size you're after. Set them on the prepared baking sheet.
• the turkey burgers: Transfer the baking sheet with the turkey burger patties to the freezer. Chill for at least 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, as the turkey burgers chill, preheat the grill for medium-high direct heat grilling, about 450 degrees F. Just before placing the burgers on the grill, generously oil a wad of paper towel. Use grilling tongs to run the oiled paper towel over the grill grates, generously oiling the grates.
• Remove the turkey burgers from the freezer. At this point they should be quite a bit easier to handle; finish forming them into 1-inch thick patties, using your thumb to create an indent in the center of each patty. Firmly press each turkey burger patty down onto the prepared grill grates. Grill the turkey burgers for 6 minutes per side, or until a thermometer inserted in the center of the turkey burgers registers 160 degrees F. If you'd like to add cheese to your turkey burgers, do so when there are 2 minutes left of grilling time.
• Allow the turkey burgers to rest for a few minutes (residual heat will increase the internal temperature to 165 degrees F) before serving as desired. Enjoy!

STEAKHOUSE BURGERS

Steps:

• Preheat the grill to high heat.
• In a large bowl, mash the bread and milk together with a fork until it forms a chunky paste. Add the salt, pepper, garlic, Worcestershire sauce and ketchup and mix well.
• Add the ground beef and scallions and break the meat up with your hands. Mix everything together until evenly combined. Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions and form compact balls. Flatten the balls into ¾-inch patties about 4½ inches across. Form a slight depression in the center of each patty to prevent the burgers from puffing up on the grill.
• Oil the grilling grates. Grill the burgers, covered, until nicely browned on the first side, 2 to 4 minutes. Flip burgers and continue cooking for a few minutes more until desired doneness is reached. Before serving, toast the buns on the cooler side of the grill if desired.
• Freezer-Friendly Instructions: The uncooked burgers can be frozen for up to three months. (Freeze the burgers on a baking sheet or plate so their shape sets, then transfer them to a sealable plastic bag for easy storage.) Defrost the burgers overnight in the refrigerator prior to serving and then cook as directed.

PERFECT GRILLED BURGERS

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium high. Form ground beef (preferably chuck) into 6-ounce patties and make an indentation in each. Season the patties on both sides with salt and pepper. Lightly brush the grill grates with vegetable oil, then grill the patties, indentation-side up, until marked on the bottom, about 5 minutes. Flip and cook until marked and slightly firm, about 3 more minutes for medium doneness. For cheeseburgers, top with 2 slices cheese during the last minute of cooking; cover the grill to melt.

JUICY GRILLED CHEESEBURGERS

Steps:

• Heat a grill to medium-high direct heat and lightly oil the grates using a paper towel soaked in canola oil or nonstick grilling cooking spray.
• Spread a 16-inch-long piece of nonstick aluminum foil on a cutting board (or mist a piece of regular aluminum foil with nonstick cooking spray). Top with the onions, 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper and 1 tablespoon water. Bring two sides of the foil together, fold over twice to create a seal and then seal the remaining two ends. Put on the grill and cook for 12 minutes, flipping once. The onions should be tender with only a bit of charring. Carefully open the top of the foil to let all the steam out and continue to cook the onions, tossing, until browned and lightly charred, 3 minutes longer. Remove from the heat.
• While the onions cook, mix the ketchup and mustard together in a small bowl. Season with pepper and set aside.
• Lightly toast the English muffins on the grill and place one top and bottom on each of 4 plates. Spread some of the ketchup sauce on the bottom half of each muffin and top with a slice of tomato.
• Divide the beef into 4 patties about 4 inches in diameter and just under 1/2-inch thick. Sprinkle with a total of 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Place the burgers on the grill. Cook until the edges of the burgers are browning, 3 to 5 minutes, and then flip. Brush the burgers with the remaining ketchup sauce and evenly top with the shredded cheese. Cover the burgers with the grill lid or a large heatproof bowl and continue to cook until the cheese has melted and the burgers are still a bit pink on the inside, about 3 minutes more.
• Put one burger on top of the assembled muffin bottom and top with some of the grilled onions and the top of the muffin. Serve with pickles if desired.

With processor running, slowly drizzle in oil, about 10 seconds; leave paste in food processor. Return mushrooms to food processor with paste and pulse to combine, 3 to 5 pulses, stopping and redistributing mixture as needed to ensure even mixing. Transfer mushroom mixture to bowl with ground turkey and use hands to evenly combine.
• With lightly greased hands, divide meat mixture into 6 balls. Flatten into 3/4-inch-thick patties about 4 inches in diameter; press shallow indentation into center of each burger to ensure even cooking. (Shaped patties can be frozen for up to 1 month. Frozen patties can be cooked straight from freezer.).
