Jays Hamburgers Recipes

Steps:

• For the Hodad's blue cheese sauce: Combine blue cheese, mayo and buttermilk in a bowl until well mixed.
• For the Hodad's blue jay burger: Cook the onion rings on a griddle until caramelized. Set aside.
• Sprinkle both sides of the beef patty with the seasoned salt. Sear on hot griddle until browned and cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Add the cheese and let melt.
• Toast top and bottom of bun on the griddle until golden brown.
• Add mayo, mustard and ketchup to bun bottom, then add pickle chips, tomato and lettuce.
• Top with beef patty, then with Bacon Patty and 1/3 cup Hodad's blue cheese sauce, grilled onions and toasted bun top.
• Place bacon in a large pot and cover with 2 quarts water. Bring to a boil and cook until the bacon fat renders, about 45 minutes.
• Place a 4-ounce serving of bacon on a hot flat-top grill or griddle and weigh down. Cook, flipping occasionally, until both sides are crispy. Repeat with remaining bacon.

Steps:

• Preheat grill for high heat.
• In a large bowl, mix the ground beef, egg, bread crumbs, evaporated milk, Worcestershire sauce, cayenne pepper, and garlic using your hands. Form the mixture into 8 hamburger patties.
• Lightly oil the grill grate. Grill patties 5 minutes per side, or until well done.

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients, except for the bacon. Spoon out for patties (making them as flat as possible) into a heated pan coated with olive oil.
• Pan fry burgers to desired internal temperature (rare to well-done).
• Layer burgers with crisp halves of bacon between.
• Top with cheese of choice, if you like. We tried Monterey Jack, but any kind will do.
• Serve on Toast or Buns. Enjoy!
