Comme Ca Burger Recipes

Steps:

• Lightly shape meat into 4 4-by-1-inch patties, and refrigerate 1 to 2 hours.
• Heat oven to 375 degrees. Prepare a hot fire on a grill, or heat a large cast-iron skillet over high heat for 3 to 4 minutes. Sprinkle each burger all over with 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt and season generously with black pepper. Sear burgers on grill or in skillet for 2 minutes on each side. Transfer burgers to a broiler pan and bake for 4 minutes for medium-rare. Remove pan from oven. Position an oven rack closest to broiler element, and heat broiler to high.
• In a bowl, whisk mayonnaise with ketchup, cayenne and chili powder, and season with salt and black pepper. Add lettuce and stir to coat. Toast buns. Top burgers with Cheddar and broil until cheese melts, about 30 seconds. Set burgers on bottom buns and top with lettuce and onion slices. Cover with top bun and serve, whole or cut in half.

Steps:

• For the chipotle secret spread: Stir the mayonnaise, adobo sauce, ketchup, relish and Worcestershire together in a bowl to make the spread. Set aside.
• For the panko-crusted avocados: In a medium pan over medium-high heat, add enough canola oil for deep-frying the avocado slices and heat until very hot.
• Put the flour in one shallow bowl, the egg in a second shallow bowl and the breadcrumbs in a third. Season the avocado slices with salt and pepper. Dredge the slices first in the flour, then dip in the egg and coat with the breadcrumbs. Fry the avocado in batches until the panko turns golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Set aside on a plate lined with paper towels.
• For the burgers: Mix the ground chuck and some salt and pepper together in a bowl with your hands. Form the meat into 4 thin 1/4-pound patties, each about 4 inches in diameter and 1/2 inch thick.
• Heat a large cast-iron skillet or griddle over medium-high heat until very hot, at least 5 minutes. Add as many patties as will fit comfortably--do not crowd--and cook until the sides of the patties are opaque, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip each patty and top with a slice of American cheese if desired. Cook until the cheese begins to droop and melt at the corners and edges. Repeat with the remaining burgers and cheese.
• Slather the bottom half of each bun with the chipotle spread, then top with 2 tomato slices, 3 fried avocado slices, 1 lettuce leaf, a cooked burger and 1 slice of onion. Finish with a top bun. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat and cook and stir onion until nearly translucent, about 4 minutes; remove from heat and cool to room temperature.
• Mix the beef chuck, lamb, onion, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper in a bowl. Divide the mixture into fifths and form each portion into a large burger. Press an indentation in the center of each burger with your thumb to keep burgers flat while cooking. Chill the patties thoroughly, 4 to 8 hours. Allow burgers to warm to room temperature before cooking.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat, and lightly oil the grate.
• Cook burgers on the hot grill until they show grill marks and the meat is no longer pink inside, about 5 minutes per side. Do not press burgers with a spatula as they cook, and flip only once. Let stand 1 minute before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat a grill for high heat. When the grill is hot, lightly oil the grate.
• In a medium bowl, mix together the egg, 1/4 cup of cola, crackers, 2 tablespoons of French dressing, and Parmesan cheese. Crumble in the ground beef, and mix well. Form into 6 balls, and pat into 3/4 inch patties. Pour the remaining cola and dressing into a small bowl, and mix well.
• Grill burgers for about 3 minutes per side. Brush with the dressing and cola, then grill for 8 to 10 more minutes, basting occasionally.
