Food: Burgers

Rangers @ Athletics

So now that I'm swearing off of fast food and soda for at least thirty days, I'll be cooking for myself more often. I'm not going to type everything that I make, but here and there I'll throw something out that I think others will enjoy.

The first is a burger that is a mix of some things I've found on my own, and the Pickapeppa sauce that Sasha introduced to me.

Schlep Burgers (lol)
  • 1 lb ground beef or ground sirloin
  • 1/4 tsp onion salt
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tbsp Pickapeppa sauce
  • 1/2" red onion slice for each burger (opt.)
  • Slice of cheese for each burger (opt.)
Combine beef, onion salt, sea salt, black pepper, and Pickapeppa in mixing bowl. Divide into three patties with thinner centers than edges (thanks Bobby Flay, lol).

Grill burgers for approximately 15 minutes, depending on the heat of your grill. Flip 2-3 times, keeping the lid closed at all other times. Do not mash burgers down while grilling! Doing that pushes the juice out, resulting in dry burgers. Gross. Grill onion slices for approximately 10 minutes, flipping once.

Melt cheese over burgers and remove from grill. Serve with tomatoes, pickles, lettuce, or whatever else on buns (toasting optional).
