Yummy BBQ Burgers

Submitted by Chef Chessie

"This is an approximation of how I throw burgers together when I have extra ground beef and little time. It is quick and easy."

 

• Ready In: 15mins
• Ingredients: 8
• Yields: 4 patties

ingredients

• 1 lb ground beef (12% or leaner)
• 1⁄4 cup breadcrumbs
• 2 tablespoons barbecue sauce
• 2 teaspoons minced onions
• 1⁄2 teaspoon garlic powder
• salt (to taste)
• pepper (to taste)
• 4 tablespoons shredded cheese (I use cheddar or jack)

directions

1. Use your hands to mix Ground Beef, Sauce, Onion, Garlic, Salt & Pepper.
2. Slowly mix in Bread Crumbs until it gets thick, but not so much that they are really noticeable.
3. Separate into four equal parts.
4. Roll into large balls then gently flatten. Do not press, pound, or smash.
5. Grill until you reach desired temperature. (I use a George Forman Grill).
6. Take off the grill and top with shredded cheese.

Really good burgers! I used lean ground turkey and cooked them on the foreman grill. I do think they could have used more BBQ sauce, but yummy all the same. Thanks for posting!

These burgers were very good with a nice combination of flavors. I'll cut back on the bread crumbs next time and maybe add more of the barbecue sauce which I really like on my burgers. Thanks for sharing.

I didn't do this as stated (I didn't think my results were anything special). I only had about 1 T barbecue sauce. It was Sweet Baby Ray's Honey Chipotle. I did not add any salt or pepper because I didn't know how much to add. I ended up using less than half the breadcrumbs (I never add them to my burgers, so I guess they seemed "noticeable" at that point LOL.) I used sliced cheddar because I had it - I also had some I could shred, but I thought it would be more complicated. They tasted fine. I served them with Recipe #74730.

Really delicious! Even the toddler who doesn't eat meat much wanted seconds. I doubled the onion because we're very fond of onion. Next time I'll use sliced cheese because I lost too much of the shredded cheese down the grill.
