All-Decked-Out Barbecue Burgers
2016-06-15 16:38:14
Yields 4
Ingredients
- 3⁄4 cup ketchup
- 1⁄4 cup light molasses
- 1⁄4 cup honey
- 2 tablespoons liquid smoke
- 1⁄4 teaspoon salt
- 1⁄4 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 11⁄2 pounds ground sirloin
- 4 slices chipotle Cheddar cheese
- 4 hamburger buns
- 1 recipe Fried Red Onion Strips (recipe follows)
Instructions
- Spray grill with nonstick, nonflammable cooking spray. Preheat grill to medium-high heat (400° to 450°).
- In a large bowl, combine ketchup, molasses, honey, liquid smoke, salt, and pepper. Whisk to combine. Add ground sirloin, and mix until mixture has absorbed all liquid. Shape meat into 4 patties, and refrigerate until 5 minutes before grilling. (Do not prepare patties more than 1 hour ahead; salt will pull out juices.)
- Grill until desired degree of doneness is reached, 10 to 15 minutes per side.
- Transfer burgers to cool side of grill (or an upper shelf), and top each with a slice of cheese. Turn grill off, close lid, and let burgers rest for 4 minutes.
- To assemble, place burgers on bottom halves of buns (cheese side up), top with Fried Red Onion Strips and remaining halves of buns. Serve immediately.
