Instructions
Instructions
- For the Burger Sauce: Mix all ingredients in a small bowl. Cover. Set aside until ready to serve.
- For the Burgers: Divide meat evenly into 8 balls. Place on hot flat top grill. Smash meat using large heavy spatula to flatten. Sprinkle tops of patties evenly with 2 teaspoons of the Seasoning.
- Grill 2 to 3 minutes or just until crust forms on bottom of patties. Flip patties; sprinkle tops evenly with remaining 2 teaspoons Seasoning. Top each patty with cheese. Grill 1 minute longer or until cheese is melted and burgers are cooked through (internal temperature of 160°F).
- To assemble, spread Burger Sauce on cut-sides of rolls. Place 2 patties on each roll and serve with desired toppings.
Test Kitchen Tip: Don't have a flat top grill? Use a large cast-iron skillet or griddle, instead! Prepare burgers as directed, heating cast-iron skillet on grill or stovetop.
