Best Alabama Beach Shack Burgers Recipes

THE ALABAMA SMOKEHOUSE PIG BURGER WITH WHITE BARBECUE SAUCE

Steps:

• Prepare a medium-hot fire in a charcoal grill with a cover, or preheat a gas grill to medium-high.
• In a small mixing bowl combine the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, sugar, and black pepper. Mix until well combined and refrigerate until serving.
• Heat a large fireproof nonstick skillet on the grill. Add the bacon and cook over medium-high heat until the bacon is crispy, about 5 minutes, flipping once. Drain on paper towels. Reserve the rendered bacon fat from the skillet.
• Combine the pork, smoked paprika, chili powder, cayenne, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Add 1 1/2 tablespoons of the rendered bacon fat from the skillet. Mix well, handling the meat as little as possible to avoid compacting. Divide the mixture into 6 equal portions and form the portions into patties to fit the size of the rolls.
• Brush the grill rack with oil. Arrange the patties on the rack, cover, and cook, turning once just until done, about 4 minutes on each side for medium-rare. During the last few minutes of cooking, top the burgers with equal amounts of smoked Gouda and put the rolls, cut side down, on the outer edges of the rack to toast lightly.
• To assemble the burgers, spread a generous amount of Alabama White Barbecue Sauce on the cut sides of the rolls. On each roll bottom, put some shredded cabbage, a cheese-topped patty, and 2 slices of bacon. Cover with the roll tops and serve.

THE SHACKBURGER BY MARK ROSATI RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Heat a cast-iron griddle over medium-low heat until warm.
• Meanwhile, open the hamburger buns and brush the insides with the melted butter. A soft brush is helpful here.
• Place the buns buttered side down on the griddle and toast until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Transfer buns to a plate. Create the Shack sauce with the provided ingredients.
• Spoon the sauce onto the top bun.
• Increase the heat to medium and heat the griddle until hot, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Evenly sprinkle a pinch of Our Salt & Pepper Mix on top of each puck of meat.
• Place the pucks on the griddle, seasoned side down. Using a large, sturdy metal spatula, firmly smash each puck into a ⅓-inch-thick (8 mm) round patty. Pressing down on the spatula with another stiff spatula helps flatten the burger quickly. Evenly sprinkle another big pinch of Our Salt & Pepper Mix.
• Cook the burgers, resisting the urge to move them, until the edges beneath are brown and crisp, and juices on the surface are bubbling hot, about 2 ½ minutes. Slide one of the spatulas beneath the burger to release it from the griddle and scrape up the caramelized browned crust. Use the other spatula to steady the burger and keep it from sliding.
• Flip the burgers. Put the cheese on top and cook the burgers 1 minute longer for medium. Cook more or less depending on your preference.
• Add a piece of the lettuce and two slices of tomato. Transfer the cheeseburgers to the prepared buns.
• Enjoy.
