BBQ Brisket Burger – 6 servings:
– 1.5 LB Butcher Block Grind Beef (this possibly contains sirloin, rib eye, brisket, strip steak or tenderloin depending on the trimmer meat available. Great Flavor profile)
– 2 tsp BBQ Rub (Fat Boys Sweet Heat)
– 2 yellow onions, peeled and cut julienned into strips
– 1 cup of flour
– 2 tsp onion powder
– Season salt
– Oil for frying onions
– 1 cup Sweet BBQ Sauce (I use a sweet BBQ Sauce called Tim and Todd’s)…Use half in burgers and the other half to top finished burger
– Use egg roll buns or plain hamburger buns
Directions:
• Combine chuck, BBQ Rub and sauce together
• Form patties and allow to rest under refrigeration for at least 10-15 minutes
• Grill over medium/high heat until the burger is cooked according to the desired doneness
• Mix the flour, onion powder and seasoned salt together
• Toss sliced onions in the seasoned flour
• Shake off excess and fry in hot oil (350-375 degrees)
• Drain on absorbent paper towels when fried
• When burger comes off the grill allow to rest for 2-3 minutes, place on the bottom of the bun and then top with the additional BBQ Sauce, Fried Onions and add the top of the bun
**Serve with traditional toppings of leaf lettuce, tomato, pickle and onion**
