Whiskey Butter Onions Food

WHISKEY BURGER

Steps:

• Pour the whiskey into a shallow dish that will hold all the hamburger patties in one layer. Place the hamburgers in the whiskey and top with the chopped garlic. Marinate the burgers for 30 minutes on one side, then flip over for another 30 minutes on the other side.
• To make the onions, add the olive oil and the butter to a skillet over medium-low heat. Add the onions and salt and cook turning the onions often for 30 minutes until they are brown and caramelized. When the onions are done, set them aside in a bowl covered with foil.
• Grill the burgers over medium-high heat for 5 minutes per side for a medium/medium rare burger. Refer to the temperature chart in the post for correct temperatures.
• The last minute of cooking, add two slices of cheese to each burger and close the lid to melt the cheese.
• Remove the hamburgers to a platter.
• Top the hamburgers with some of the caramelized onions and a trip of bacon then serve.

GRILLED STEAK WITH WHISKEY BUTTER

Steps:

• Grilling Method: Combo/Medium-High
• Make Whiskey Butter:
• Make Butter at least 3 hours in advance. Combine butter, shallots soaked in Jack Daniels (or other bourbon or whiskey), parsley, Worcestershire, mustard, whiskey, salt, and pepper. Mix well. On a piece of plastic wrap, drop butter in spoonfuls to form a log. Roll butter in plastic wrap and smooth out to form a round log. Refrigerate until hard and easy to slice into round, coin-shaped pieces.
• Prepare Steaks:
• Allow meat to come to room temperature about 15 minutes before grilling.
• Just before grilling, brush both sides of the steaks with the oil and season with salt and pepper.
• Place steaks directly over medium-high heat for about 1 to 2 minutes, just long enough to get good grill marks. Turn steaks and sear the other side. Move steaks to indirect heat and continue cooking for about 7 more minutes for medium rare.
• Remove steaks from the grill, top with a pat of the whiskey butter and allow to rest at least 5 minutes but no longer than 10 before serving.
• Spread the melted butter all over the tops of the steaks and top each with a fresh slice of the whiskey butter and parsley, if desired.
