Barbecue Burgers

Ingredients

  • 2 lbs. ground beef
  • 1/4 c. grated onion
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced or grated
  • 1 TBS grill seasoning
  • 1/2- 3/4 c. barbecue sauce
  • Hamburger buns, optional
  • Sliced onion, optional

Preparation

Step 1

In a large bowl combine ground beef, onion, garlic, grill seasoning and barbecue sauce. Using your hands mix well until combined. Divide meat into 4 equal portions and form into patties. (I love my burger press for this). Preheat grill to medium. Spray w/ cooking spray. Grill burgers for 5 minutes per side or until your desired doneness.Brush w/ extra barbecue sauce before serving.

*NOTE* If you are wondering why grated onion- it ensures the burger's moistness. Chopped onion does not do the same thing. Grated onion gives off "juice" that adds moisture to the meat. Use a box grater or microplane for best results.
