Pimento Cheese Stuffed Burgers Recipes

Steps:

• Mix the ground beef, salt and pepper in a large bowl and form the mixture into 8 equal-size balls. Press a cube of desired cheese into the center of each ball and cover completely with meat. Form the balls into hamburger patties, about 1/4-inch thick. Grill burgers until desired doneness. Top with lettuce, tomatoes, onions and pickles as desired on a toasted bun.
• Place the drained pimientos in a blender or food processor and puree until smooth. Using an electric mixer, combine the pimientos and cheese, beating until smooth. Beat in the mayonnaise.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• To prepare Pimento Cheese, in a medium mixing bowl, combine Cheddar and Jack cheeses, mayonnaise, cream cheese, pimento peppers, pickle juice, horseradish sauce, and mustard; mix until well combined.
• To prepare Honey Slaw, in a small mixing bowl combine mayonnaise, honey, and cabbage; mix until well combined.
• Heat a 12-inch nonstick grill pan over medium-high heat. Add bacon and cook until the bacon is crispy, about 5 minutes, flipping once. Drain on paper towels. Pour off almost all of the bacon fat from the pan, leaving a very thin layer.
• To make the patties, combine the beef, country ham, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Handling the meat as little as possible to avoid compacting it, mix well. Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and form into patties to fit the buns.
• Using the same grill pan as before, cook the hamburgers over medium-high heat for 3 minutes per side or until cooked medium rare.
• Meanwhile, place buns on a rack in the oven. Bake for 3 to 5 minutes. Also, place the plates that the burgers will be served on in the oven to heat.
• To assemble the burgers, spread a generous amount of Pimento Cheese on the cut sides of the buns. On each bun bottom (on top of the Pimento Cheese), place a thin layer of Honey Slaw. Top the slaw with a burger patty, 2 slices of bacon, and crushed potato chips. Add the bun tops. Place the completed hamburgers on a nonstick baking sheet and bake in the oven for 1 minute. Serve burgers on warm plates.

Steps:

• Mix together the American cheese, Monterey Jack cheese, Swiss cheese, mayonnaise, jalapenos, sriracha, pimentos and 1 teaspoon salt and pepper in a large bowl.
• Prepare a grill for high heat. Season the burger patties with kosher salt and pepper. Place the patties on the grill and cook, rotating two to three times, until the edges begin to sweat, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip the burgers and cook for 2 to 3 minutes more.
• Place a 2-ounce scoop of the pimento cheese in the middle of the cooked burgers. Serve the burgers on toasted buns, garnished with Fried Pickles.
• Add the granulated sugar, cider vinegar, white vinegar, peppercorns, brown sugar, garlic, jalapeno, 2 1/2 ounces salt and 1 cup water to a stockpot and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer until the sugar and salt are dissolved, 10 minutes. Let cool to room temperature. Add the sliced cucumbers to the brine and refrigerate for 24 hours.
• In a bowl, mix together the tempura powder and 1 cup ice water until smooth.
• Fill a large heavy pot with 2 to 3 inches of oil and heat to 350 degrees F. Working in batches, dip the pickles in the tempura batter and then into the oil. Fry until golden brown. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate to drain.

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for medium-high heat.
• Put the onions in a medium bowl and cover with ice water. Let the onions soak 10 minutes while you prep the patties and pimento sauce.
• Combine the beef with 2 tablespoons of the Worcestershire sauce, 1 teaspoon salt and several grinds of black pepper in a medium bowl. Form the meat mixture into eight 3-ounce patties. A quick and easy way to do this is to divide the mixture into 8 piles. Place a pile on top of a deli container lid. Place the top of a second deli container lid against the pile, press down evenly and firmly and watch as a perfect patty forms. Repeat with the remaining meat mixture. Make a slight indentation in the middle of each patty with your thumb to keep the patty from shrinking as it cooks. Set aside.
• Add the cream cheese, pimentos, mayonnaise, cayenne, 1/4 teaspoon salt and the remaining 1 teaspoon Worcestershire to a medium bowl and stir until well combined. Drain the onions and pat dry.
• Lightly brush the grill grates with oil. Grill the patties, indentation-side up, until marked on the bottom, about 3 minutes. Flip and grill until marked on the second side and slightly firm, about 2 minutes more for medium rare. Top each patty with 1 slice cheese, cover the grill and cook until melted, about 1 minute. Remove to a plate and let rest for a few minutes. Toast the buns cut-side down, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Top each bottom bun with 2 burgers. Top the burgers with lettuce and the onions and spread the inside of the top buns with the pimento sauce. Top the burgers with the top buns and secure with a toothpick if desired. Serve with dill pickle and French fries.

Steps:

• Whisk the mayonnaise, cayenne, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper in a large bowl. Add the red peppers, white Cheddar and yellow Cheddar and gently fold until combined. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before using.
• Meanwhile, preheat the grill to high for direct grilling. Divide the ground chuck into four equal portions, 6 ounces each. Form each portion into a 3/4-inch burger and make a deep depression in the center with your thumb. Brush both sides of the burgers with the oil and sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper. Grill the burgers until golden brown and slightly charred on both sides and cooked to desired doneness, about 4 minutes each side for medium doneness. During the last minute of cooking, place a dollop of the cheese mixture on top of each burger and close the grill lid. Cook until the cheese has just melted, about 1 minute.
• Place the burgers on the buns and top with the bacon, onions, tomatoes, pickles and lettuce if desired.

Steps:

• Stir together pimientos, cheese, mayonnaise, and chives. (To store, cover and refrigerate, up to 2 days.)
• Heat a grill or grill pan to medium-high. Clean and lightly oil hot grill. Season patties with salt and pepper. Grill 4 minutes per side for medium; during last minute of cooking, top each burger with 3 tablespoons pimiento cheese and cover grill. Serve burgers on buns with desired toppings.
