Ingredients:
- 2 lean ground lamb
- 1 ground pork
- 1 dried parsley
- 2 onion powder
- 2 garlic powder
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- Pepper, to taste
Instructions:
-
Mix meats, parsley, and powders: In a large bowl, combine the lean ground lamb, ground pork, dried parsley, onion powder, and garlic powder. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly distributed.
-
-
Divide and shape: Divide the meat mixture into 8 equal portions, approximately 6 ounces each. Gently shape each portion into a disk, aiming for a diameter of about 4 inches and a thickness of 3/4 inch. Be careful not to overwork the meat, as it may affect its tenderness.
-
Chill or freeze: Optionally, wrap the formed burgers in plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to a day to allow the flavors to meld. These burgers can also be frozen for future use.
-
Create a depression: Press your thumb into the center of each burger to create a small depression, about half the thickness of the burger. This helps prevent the burgers from puffing up unevenly during cooking.
-
Season and prepare for cooking: Just before cooking, brush a bit of olive oil onto each burger and season with pepper, garlic salt, and any additional desired spices.
-
Cook on the grill: Preheat your grill to a very high temperature. Cook the burgers for approximately 4 minutes on each side, ensuring a hot pink center. Adjust cooking time according to desired doneness (3 minutes for rare, 5 minutes for well-done).
-
Manage flare-ups: Be vigilant for flare-ups and extinguish them as needed to prevent burning.
-
Add cheese: If desired, add cheese to the burgers during the last 60 seconds of cooking to allow it to melt and meld with the flavors.
-
Form a crust: The key to juicy and flavorful burgers is to form a crust during cooking that seals in the juices. Aim for a golden-brown exterior for maximum flavor.
-
Alternative cooking method: These burgers can also be cooked in a hot cast iron skillet on the stove if a grill is not available.
Serve your Super Burgers hot and enjoy the succulent flavors of the lamb and pork blend, accented with aromatic herbs and spices. Whether for a quick lunch or a satisfying snack, these burgers are sure to be a hit! 🍔🔥
