Lord of the O-Rings Burgers

(from castro15’s recipe box)

Categories: Burgers

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 lb. ground beef
  • Kosher salt and back pepper
  • 1/4 cup each finely chopped fresh chives, dill and parsley
  • 1/4 cup buttermilk powder
  • 1 1/2 tbsp. Worcestershire
  • 2 garlic cloves, grated
  • 1 1/2 tsp granulated onion
  • 16 oz. bag frozen beer-battered onion rings
  • 1 tbsp. olive oil
  • Sliced yellow American cheese, cheddar, dill Havarti or pepper Jack
  • 4 sesame seed buns
  • Sliced dill or spicy pickles, chopped iceberg and ketchup, for topping

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425.

  2. In a medium bowl, season the beef with salt and pepper. Mix in the herbs, buttermilk powder, Worcestershire, garlic and granulated onion. Form into 4 patties.

  3. Bake the onion rings for 3-4 minutes longer than the package directions to make them extra crispy. While they’re still hot, season them with salt.

  4. Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium-high. Add the oil. Add the patties and cook, turning occasionally, for about 8 minutes. Top the patties with the cheese during the last minute or two of cooking. Tent with foil so the cheese melts.

  5. Build the burgers with the bun bottoms, a layer of pickles on each, some chopped lettuce, 3 to 4 onion rings on each, the patties, some ketchup and the bun tops.
