Story

This is THE Burger. I am very sure this would tingle everyone who loves a perfect burger. That first bite where you get your jaw out of place because you can’t get a full bite. The second bite where you hit the bacon mixed with the perfect blend of vegetables, cheese, meat and toasted hamburger bread. Enjoy!

Making the burger patties

  1. Add the following ingredients to a mixer bowl:
    1. Ground beef
    2. Ground Pork
    3. half of an onion finely chopped
    4. Spices
  2. Mix everything for 1 minute while adding shredded cheese at medium speed.
  3. Finally, add 2 eggs and mix quickly for 30 seconds
  4. Weigh the meat mixture to two sizes. 170g/6oz. or 200g/7oz. (I use 2 patties of 6oz. for the double burger and 7oz. for the single one. I don’t recommend going out of these measurements. The ratio of a good bite from this burger is in a perfect Then it’s better to share half with someone or eat more than one. If you don’t have wooden skewers, I suggest doing a 7+6oz burger combination for a better stabilizing. The double could get too tall to keep it standing without some help!)
  5. Roll the weighted meat into balls.
  6. Add a little water puddle to your kitchen counter or cutting board.
  7. Rinse your hands in water, (still wet) make the meatball into a burger in your water puddle.
  8. Repeat this procedure until all the meatballs are made into patties.

Final steps for THE Burger

*Add burger buns to an oven at 100oC/212oF. Just to give them a little crisp. Give them 5 minutes in the oven
**I use lots of real butter to fry the burgers.

***, In the beginning, I suggest you prepare the bread, dressing and vegetable part of the burger. It’s hard to juggle everything while frying four burgers. Have everything ready to load the patties on top with bacon and build your layers if you’re reaching for the double.

  1. Fry the burger at maximum heat for 20 seconds, then turn down plate to medium heat.
  2. After 2-3 minutes turn the burger, and add strips of bacon next to the burgers.
  3. Fry the other side of the burgers for another 2-3 minutes.
  4. Flip bacon strips, and burgers again.
  5. Then add a slice of cheddar and Jarlsberg cheese on top of the burger while it’s still hot.
  6. Let the burger fry one more minute.
  7. Plate up the burger after my suggested setup.
