Jack Daniels Burger Using Real Jack Food

JACK DANIELS BURGER (USING REAL JACK)

Steps:

• The Sauce (Prepare 24 hours in advance and let sit in the fridge) Combine onion, 1/2 oz smokeless hickory, garlic and Jack Daniels in a 3 quart saucepan. Sauté until translucent, about 10 minutes. Add all remaining ingredients, bring to boil. Simmer uncovered until reduced and thickened, about 15 to 25 minutes. Add more Jack Daniels if a stronger flavor is desired (Careful with amount, too much ruins the dish) The burgers: Divide the ground beef into however many burgers you wish to make, shape each burger into a ball, and with your thumb make an impression into the center of each ball. Fill each impression with a piece of cheese and 1 tablespoon of jalapeno's forming the meat around the cheese mixture into a 1" patty. Prepare the grill to a medium-high heat. Season the hamburgers with salt and pepper. While grilling, brush generously with your pre-prepared Jack Daniels BBQ Sauce with just a hint of Colgin's Hickory liquid smoke. Add a few slices of green peppers and grill for about 5 minutes on each side or until fully cooked. Transfer the hamburgers to the buns. Serve with dressings (tomato, lettuce, onion, etc). *This recipe is great with a cold glass of Bud Light and a crown & Coke*

WHISKEY HAMBURGERS

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat; lightly oil the grate.
• Combine the ground beef, beer, Worcestershire sauce, whiskey, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper in a bowl; mix until evenly combined. Shape the mixture into 6 patties.
• Cook on the preheated grill until the burgers are cooked to your desired degree of doneness, 5 to 8 minutes per side for well done. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).

T.G.I. FRIDAY'S® JACK DANIELS® SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Cut about 1/2-inch from the top of the garlic head. Trim the roots so the garlic sits flat. Remove some of the outer layers of papery skin from the garlic, leaving enough so that the cloves stay together. Put garlic into a small casserole dish or baking dish, drizzle olive oil over it, and cover with a lid or aluminum foil.
• Roast garlic in preheated oven until the cloves are soft, about 1 hour.
• Stir brown sugar, pineapple juice, water, teriyaki sauce, and soy sauce together in a saucepan and bring to a boil; reduce heat to low and keep at simmer.
• Squeeze sides of the garlic until the pasty roasted garlic emerges. Measure 2 teaspoons roasted garlic into the saucepan and incorporate into the sauce with a whisk. Reserve remaining roasted garlic for another use.
• Stir lemon juice, white onion, bourbon whiskey, pineapple, and cayenne pepper into the sauce; bring to a simmer and cook until the volume of the liquid reduces by half and is thick and syrup-like, 40 to 50 minutes.
