Magical blend marinade recipe!
Our best hamburger marinade is a quick-to-mix blend of Worcestershire sauce, red wine vinegar, brown sugar, fresh garlic, olive oil, onion, liquid smoke, salt and pepper. You gently blend the ingredients into the meat and let them work their magic! Be careful not to handle the meat too much so it doesn't get tough.
What's the purpose of these ingredients?
Vinegar, brown sugar and oil all contribute tenderness and flavor to the meat. The other ingredients such as Worcestershire sauce, liquid smoke, onion and garlic boost flavor. Worcestershire sauce is a mixture of vinegar, molasses, anchovies, and other seasonings.
What is the best way to make hambuger patties?
After forming the ground beef into round patties, flatten them so they're bigger than the buns. Next, make an indentation in the center of each burger. This will help burgers so they don't bulge in the center. Cover patties and let marinade in refrigerator for at least one hour. You should grill over high heat to quickly sear outside of burger and seal in juices. Cook 3-4 minutes per side.
Best Burger Making Tips:
- Use 80% lean ground beef (there will be less shrinkage)
- Marinade patties in refrigerator not at room temperature
- Try not to move the burger on the grill while cooking
- Toast bun on grill – you don’t want a soggy bun
- Add cheese 30 seconds before taking burger off grill
Enjoy!
