BBQ glazed beef Burgers
Ingredients
- 1 Kg Lean Minced beef
- 2 Spring Onions
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 50 g breadcrumbs
- 50 g parmesan grated
- 1 large egg
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley chopped
- 2 tbsp rapeseed oil
- 100 ml BBQ Glaze
- 8 Burger buns check out the tutorial bun recipe on the coming days
- 8 Slices Wexford Cheddar
- 8 Slices cooked crispy Streaky Bacon
- 2 Tomatoes sliced
- 40 g Mixed Salad Leaves
- salt and pepper
Method
- Preheat the barbecue. Put the minced beef into a large mixing bowl and mix in with the spring onions, garlic, breadcrumbs, grated parmesan, egg and chopped parsley. Season the mixture with a little salt and pepper.
- Divide the mixture into 8 quarter pound portions and shape them into patties of about ½ inch thick. Allow to rest in the fridge for at least 30 minutes. Brush the burgers with a little oil to prevent them from sticking to the barbecue, cook on each side for 5 minutes over direct heat and move over indirect heat if the meat start to colour too quickly.
- In the meantime, drizzle the halved brioche burger buns with olive oil and toast lightly on the barbecue.
- When the burgers are nearly cooked through, brush each of the burger with the BBQ glaze and flip to allow caramelization. Brush again each burger and again let caramelise for 1-2 minutes.
- Remove the burger from the barbecue and place on the brioche burger bun with your favourite toppings of cheese, tomatoes slices, crispy streaky bacon and mixed salad leaves.
