Time 1h30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

4 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 large yellow onions, thinly sliced into half moons
⅓ cup rye whiskey
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 large navel oranges
¼ cup dijon mustard
¼ cup yellow mustard
1 teaspoon orange bitters
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon ground coriander
2 lb ground beef
1 tablespoon olive oil
8 slices american cheese
4 burger buns
1 large egg, beaten
1 tablespoon sesame seed
1 cup iceberg lettuce, shredded
8 slices beefsteak tomatoes
old fashioned

Steps:

  • Make the whiskey-caramelized onions: In a large, high-walled skillet, melt the butter over medium-low heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until they caramelize and turn golden brown, about 45 minutes. Add the whiskey and salt and stir to combine. Remove the pan from the heat and let sit until ready to use.
  • Make the roasted orange mustard: Turn the broiler on high.
  • Use a sharp knife to remove the peel from the orange, then slice the orange crosswise into ½-inch rounds. Arrange the rounds in a single layer on a baking sheet.
  • Broil the orange slices until they begin to brown and crisp on the top, about 10 minutes.
  • Remove the oranges from the oven and transfer to a large bowl to cool slightly. Use a potato masher to mash the juice from the oranges, and then strain through a fine-mesh sieve, pressing on the flesh to extract as much juice as possible. You should have about ¼ cup of roasted orange juice.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the orange juice, Dijon mustard, yellow mustard, and bitters until smooth. Refrigerate until ready to use.
  • Make the smash burgers: Reduce the oven temperature to 375°F (190°C).
  • Divide the ground beef into 8 4-ounce portions, being careful not to work the meat too much.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the salt, pepper, and coriander.
  • Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until nearly smoking. Pour the olive oil into the hot pan. Place 2 portions of ground beef, or as many as will fit without overcrowding, in the pan and use a flat metal spatula to flatten into patties. Use the back of a wooden spoon to press the spatula more firmly to flatten each patty even more. Season each patty generously with the salt mixture. Once the patties turn golden brown on the bottoms and the edges are crispy, about 2 minutes, flip and continue cooking until the other side is golden brown, about 2 more minutes. Top each patty with 1 slice of American cheese and let melt, about 30 seconds. Remove from the pan and repeat with the remaining ground beef.
  • Assemble the burgers: Place the intact burger buns on a baking sheet. Brush the top of each bun with beaten egg, then sprinkle with the sesame seeds. Transfer to the oven and bake until the egg wash turns golden brown, about 5 minutes.
  • Open the buns and place ¼ cup of shredded lettuce on each bottom bun, followed by 2 tomato slices, a patty, ¼ cup caramelized onions, and a second patty. Spread 2 tablespoons of the orange mustard over the undersides of the top buns, then place on top of the burgers. Serve with old fashioneds.
  • Enjoy!

FAJITA BURGER WITH GUACAMOLE



Fajita Burger with Guacamole image

Nothing beats a sizzling hot platter of fajitas--well, except maybe this burger! We took the fun of a fajita platter and turned it into a decadent burger that is loaded with peppers, onions and plenty of pepper jack cheese for some kick. Worcestershire sauce brings salty umami to both the guacamole and the burger patties.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 tablespoons sour cream
2 ripe avocados
1 tablespoon lime juice
Several dashes hot sauce
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves, chopped
2 tablespoons vegetable oil, plus more for the grill grates
2 bell peppers (any color is fine), thinly sliced
1 onion, halved and thinly sliced
1 jalapeno, seeded and thinly sliced
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon chile powder
1 1/2 pounds ground beef chuck (80/20)
Four 1-ounce slices pepper jack cheese
4 hamburger buns, split

Steps:

  • Prepare a grill for medium indirect heat (for a gas grill, leave one or two burners on low or off; for a charcoal grill, bank the coals on one side of grill).
  • Combine the avocado, sour cream, hot sauce, lime juice, 1 tablespoon of the Worcestershire sauce and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl and mash together with a potato masher or the back of a fork. Stir in the cilantro, cover and set aside.
  • Combine the oil, bell peppers, onion, jalapeno, 1 tablespoon of the chile powder, 1 teaspoon salt and several grinds of black pepper in a large bowl and toss to combine; set aside.
  • Combine the beef, remaining 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, remaining 1 teaspoon chile powder, 1 teaspoon salt and several grinds of black pepper in a large bowl and mix well. Divide the mixture into fourths and shape into patties.
  • Lightly brush the grill grates with oil. Put the bell pepper mixture in an open grill basket and cook over direct heat, tossing frequently, until the peppers and onions are golden and tender, 12 to 15 minutes. Move the basket over indirect heat. Put the patties over direct heat. Grill the patties until marked on the bottom, about 3 minutes. Flip and cook about 2 minutes, then top each patty with 1 slice of pepper jack cheese. Cover the grill and cook until the cheese is melted and the patties are marked on the other side and slightly firm, about 1 minute more for medium rare. Remove the patties and pepper mixture to a serving platter.
  • Spread the guacamole on both sides of the buns and top with the patties and pepper mixture.
