    The (not so veggie) Burger

    BY: Ben Rayl PUBLISHED: 26 Sep, '12 UPDATED: 15 May, '21 1 Comment

    Sometimes you just need a burger - a 100% beef burger.  When I make burgers, I feel that simple is best, save the fancy additions for your meatloaf.  That being said, I do like to add some cheese to the patty, I like the way it holds it together.  This is my standard burger recipe, it works equally well on a flame grill or in a really hot (preferably cast iron) skillet.

    Ingredients
     

    • 2 pounds ground beef - 12 – 16% fat makes the best burger
    • 1 medium red onion - finely chopped
    • 2 tablespoon dijon mustard
    • 4 tablespoon parsley - fresh chopped
    • 2 cups cheese - optional shredded
    • salt and pepper - to taste

    Instructions

    • Hand mix the ingredients together in a bowl, form into equal size balls, flatten into patties and grill away.
    • Some people like to add egg as a binder, I’ve never had a problem with these burgers coming apart, they hold together very well. I save the egg for my meatloaf.
