Grilled Onion Burger And Spicy Pickle Michael Symon Food

BURGERS

Steps:

• Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. If you're not using an outdoor grill, preheat a second grill pan over medium heat (for a side griddle).
• Gently mix together the brisket, short rib and sirloin in a large bowl. Divide the mixture into 4 equal pieces and gently form into burgers, being careful not to pack too tightly.
• Season both sides of the burgers with a good amount of salt and freshly ground black pepper.
• When the grill or first grill pan is at medium-high, place the burgers on the grill and cook to your desired temperature, 3 to 4 minutes per side for medium rare. Add a piece of cheese to each burger and cook for another minute or so until it is melted.
• In the meantime, spread the mayo on the cut side of the buns and place them over medium heat or on the secondary grill pan to toast.
• Build the burgers by placing a burger on each bottom bun and top with 2 pieces of bacon, some red onion, pickles and mustard.

CHARRED BROCCOLI SALAD

Steps:

• Set up your grill for indirect heat. If using a charcoal grill, build the coals on one side only. If using a gas grill, heat one side only.
• Trim the bottom inch off of the broccoli stems and discard or save in your freezer for a soup. Quarter the broccoli lengthwise into large pieces and place in a bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat. Place the broccoli on the direct heat side of the grill and char on all sides, about 1 to 2 minutes per side. Move to the indirect side of the grill, close the grill lid and roast until cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes.
• In a mixing bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, sour cream, scallions, vinegar, dill, brown sugar and mustard. Season to taste with the fresh nutmeg, salt and pepper. Remove the broccoli to a serving platter and drizzle with as much of the buttermilk dressing as you'd like. Top with the dried cherries and peanuts. Serve!

BEEF AND CHORIZO STUFFED BURGERS WITH CARAMELIZED ONIONS

Steps:

• Set up your grill for indirect heat. If using a charcoal grill, build the coals on one side only. If using a gas grill, heat one side only.
• For the caramelized onions: Add the butter, onions and a pinch of salt to a medium saute pan. Place the pan on the indirect heat side of the grill and cook, stirring occasionally until the onions are tender and deeply caramelized, about 1 hour. When ready, remove from the grill and set aside.
• In a mixing bowl, combine the beef and chorizo. Divide the mixture evenly between 8 deli container lids. Flatten the meat into each lid to create an even disk. Pop the 8 meat disks out of the lids. Add the cheese to the center of 4 of the meat disks, then top with the remaining 4 meat disk and seal the edges.
• Preheat a large cast-iron pan on the direct heat side of the grill. Season both sides of the burgers with salt and drizzle with olive oil. Place the burgers in the pan and immediately smash them with a spatula. Cook the burgers for about 2 minutes per side. Remove the burgers from the grill. Spread the mayo on the burger buns and toast them the indirect heat side of the grill.
• To build: To each bun, add some caramelized onions, a burger, the condiments of your choice and cilantro. Serve!

Ground meat with a higher percentage of fat has more flavor than lean meat. 2. Only press the patties when they first go on the grill. Pressing burgers after they've been cooking squeezes the juice out, leaving you with dry burgers. 3. When melting cheese on the burger, put a splash of water on the griddle and cover the burger with a lid to create steam melting the cheese faster.
