Lumberjack Hamburgers Recipes

Steps:

• Toast the bun on a flat-top grill. Stack the potato salad, brisket slices and pickles on the bottom bun. On the top bun, drizzle Sriracha in a circular motion and then make a heart with the Sriracha. Cover the sandwich with the top bun and secure with a skewer.
• Put the potatoes in a large pot of heavily salted water. Cover and bring to a boil. When the water reaches a boil, the potatoes are done cooking. Strain the potatoes and plunge them into an ice bath for 3 minutes.
• In a large bowl, combine the bell peppers, cilantro, roasted garlic, jalapenos, black pepper, salt and the cooled potatoes.
• Put the mayonnaise, vinegar and mustard in a stand mixer; mix on low speed. Add the black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, celery salt and parsley; mix until well blended, scraping the bowl occasionally.

Steps:

• Add oil or butter to a large cast-iron or stainless-steel skillet and place over medium heat. Gently divide ground beef into 4 small piles of around 8 ounces each, and then lightly form these into thick patties of around 3 1/2 inches in diameter, like flattened meatballs. Season aggressively with salt and pepper.
• Increase heat under skillet to high. Put hamburgers into the skillet with plenty of distance between them and allow them to cook, without moving, for approximately 3 minutes. Use a spatula to turn hamburgers over. If using cheese, lay slices on meat.
• Continue to cook until meat is cooked through, approximately another 3 to 4 minutes for medium-rare. Remove hamburgers from skillet and allow to rest for approximately 5 minutes; meanwhile, toast the buns. Place hamburgers on buns and top as desired.

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients and make 4 patties.
• Cook 3 minutes each side in a Weber-type barbeque.

Steps:

• For the waffles: Put the butter in a small saucepan and cook over medium heat until deep golden brown. Transfer to a small bowl and let cool for 5 minutes.
• In a large bowl, mix together the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt until combined.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the yolks until smooth. Add the whole milk, buttermilk and vanilla extract to the yolks and whisk until combined.
• In another medium bowl, whisk the whites until soft peaks form.
• Add the yolk mixture to the dry mixture, and fold in the brown butter until just combined. Some lumps in the batter are fine. Fold in the egg whites. Allow the batter to rest for 1 hour if time allows.
• Heat a waffle iron to high. Spray nonstick cooking spray on both sides of the iron. Ladle a level amount of batter into the waffle iron. Sprinkle blueberries on top of the batter in the waffle iron (see Cook's Note). Close the lid and cook until golden brown, about 7 minutes. Do not open the waffle iron until done. Repeat until all the batter and blueberries are used.
• For the bacon: Cook the bacon in batches in a cast-iron skillet over medium heat until crispy, 3 minutes. Flip and cook for another 3 minutes until caramelized and crispy.
• Meanwhile, whisk together the maple syrup, mustard and black pepper in a small bowl.
• Transfer the bacon to a baking rack. Liberally brush the top of the bacon with the maple syrup mixture and let sit for 8 minutes, if time allows; the bacon will really crisp as it cools.
• For the eggs: Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a nonstick sauté pan over medium-high heat. Carefully crack three eggs into the pan, season with salt and pepper and reduce the heat to medium. Cover the skillet with a lid for 1 to 2 minutes to "baste"; the yolk should still be runny. Remove from the pan and set aside.
• Repeat the process using the remaining butter and eggs.
• For the chorizo sausage: Heat the oil in a cast-iron skillet over high heat until smoking. Add the chorizo and cook until golden brown and just cooked through, about 3 minutes per side.
• Remove to a paper towel-lined plate and season with salt and pepper.
• To serve: Top each waffle with an egg, some of the bacon and sausage. Serve with ricotta and blueberry preserves and drizzle with maple syrup, if desired.

Steps:

• Shape the ground chuck into 6 patties, approximately 3/4" thick.
• Combine all other ingredients in a resealable bag and mix well. Add the patties and marinate, refrigerated, 12 hours or overnight.
• Grill, panfry or broil to your desired degree of doneness.
• Remove from heat, pass the napkins and enjoy!
• NOTE: Prep time does not includes marinating time.
