Sometimes it’s worth spending all afternoon on a burger.

    I love doing hours long food projects, but I keep finding that after all of that effort I’m more tired than hungry. I smoked and then braised some beef shanks for 4 hours yesterday over coals, carefully constructed the broth, roasted potatoes, caramelized carrots and onions, and then just put them away for future meals and went to bed 😛

    nice. but as a burger truck owner that’s far too long to spend on one.

    Never had Granny Smith on a burger, sounds enticing. Although I don’t like a crusty bun too much I would devour this 

  6. Side veggies are various small potatoes, Brussels sprouts, onions, bell pepper, cherry tomatoes, fresh rosemary, carrots and garlic. S&P, Smoked paprika, and a solid drizzle of olive oil.

  7. That looks great, and yes, once in a while it sure is! The best burger I can remember having was when I was on my day off from cooking at a nice restaurant. Another cook came over and we made burgers.

    Made the dough for the buns the night before and baked them in the morning. We ground the beef and formed thick patties, and caramelized onions in butter with red wine and port.

    Kosher salt and cracked black pepper, then seared the thick patties medium rare, adding butter near the end, outside in cast iron over my wok burner while drinking Dale’s Pale Ale. Topped the meat with Camembert and the caramelized onions while toasting the buns in the fat.

    It was a project, but that was over 15 years ago and I still think about those burgers regularly… *gazes wistfully into the distance*
