How To Make A Great Burger for the BBQ!

Homemade hamburgers

My husband Mark and I are embarking on new journey – to become full time RV’ers by next summer.

Actually Mark is full time and I am working for one more year.  It will all go by so fast.

So this blog post is all about how to make great homemade hamburgers and this recipe is one that Mark created just this past weekend.  We pretty much split up the kitchen into two camps.  I’m the Baker and he’s the Chef, so I’ll let him tell it…

Our family and friends often ask me how to make a great burger for the BBQ Grill.  My burgers are famous!

Well, the essence of this homemade hamburger recipe is the combination of the turkey, beef and pork that triples both the flavor and juicy tenderness that we all love in a good burger.

Beef and pork burgers

Combining beef and pork for homemade hamburgers is very popular. The fat from the pork adds great texture and flavour to the burgers.

In this I also added turkey to change things up a bit. Try it!

  Three  500 gram/1 lb. packages will yield eight well sized burgers.

I don’t measure ingredients, so I have listed them by name only. The fun part about cooking is experimenting with flavors and amounts until you get the “yummmm” factor. (Note: Mark cooks by taste and touch – so I’ve added the measurements to this recipe)

How To Make A Great Burger – Ingredients and Instructions!

Into a large bowl, combine the meat (s) until they are thoroughly mixed. Using a potato masher helps speed up the process.

Add the following spices to taste: *

• 1 tbsp each of Salt, pepper, Worcestershire sauce, garlic salt, Herbs de Provence (rosemary, marjoram, thyme and savory)[wpshortcodead id=”qmeqc5ada3bad0c4b4″]

Mix in

• 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
• 1 tbsp Hot Sauce – adjust to taste (depends on hot you like your food!)
• 1 package (10 oz) of mushrooms finely chopped
• ½ chopped sweet onion

Mix everything together and shape into patties.  You will get 8 burgers from this recipe.

Make sure your barbecue grill is smoking hot. You won’t have to worry about burning the burgers because the combination of meats prevents this from happening.

Grill until almost done, then add our famous Best BBQ Sauce and cook until the sauce is caramelized.

We dressed these amazing Triple Flavor Homemade Hamburgers with heirloom tomatoes, garlic dill pickles, and our favorite condiments!

We served our burgers on fresh crusty buns or kaiser rolls with our favorite salad, like our Creamy Coleslaw!  Voila! an instant feast.

These amazing homemade burgers would be perfect for a family BBQ or neighborhood potluck.  Our post on How To Plan a Great BBQ Party, will help you plan a perfect party!
