Uncle Bill's Hamburger Patties image

I cooked these patties for a Fund Raiser and served over 260 persons, both young and mature. They were a tremendously big hit with all.

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 lbs lean ground beef
2 large eggs, beaten
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1/2 cup crushed soda crackers or 1/2 cup fine dry breadcrumb
3/4 teaspoon granulated garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
4 tablespoons hickory barbecue sauce
6 tablespoons olive oil (for frying)

Steps:

  • In a large mixing bowl, mix together ground round, beaten eggs, onions, soda crackers, garlic powder, salt, pepper and barbecue sauce. Mix until well incorporated.
  • Weigh out hamburger patties to 6 - 7 ounce each.
  • Press together and flatten to about 3 1/2" in diameter or use a mold.
  • The patties should be about 3/4" thick.
  • Using a round wooden spoon handle (about 1/4" round), make a hole in the center of the hamburger pattie.
  • In a frying pan over medium-high heat, heat olive oil.
  • Place 3 patties into the hot oil and fry for about 2 to 3 minutes, the hole will begin to close.
  • Turn patty over and continue to fry for about 2 to 3 minutes.
  • The hole that was made in the pattie will fill in when the hamburger is cooked through properly.
  • Check for doneness to make sure there is no pink showing.
  • NOTE: If the burger mixture does not hold together when squeezed, add some milk and mix to blend.
  • Serve in a nice large bun that is warmed and buttered with a spread of mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, a slice of sweet onion, a slice of a large tomato, and a leaf of lettuce.
  • A slice of Swiss cheese layered on the burger patty is great.
  • A pickle of your choice adds an additional touch.
  • Fry some mushrooms and spread some over the top of the bun.
  • Fried caramalized onions are a good added touch.
  • This makes a fantastic hamburger.
