Ultimate Burgers

I think I have the perfect everyday burger.  This is the pantry staples, no non-sense burger that can also be a meatball.   It’s simple, the kids love it, and thanks to Lisa, I have a freezer full of them for BBQ emergencies.  I bought a package of ground beef at Costco and made a bunch and froze them.  Why haven’t I thought of this before???  Such a smart idea.  This recipe can easily be doubled, tripled or quadrupled.

If you make them as meatballs, you can freeze them once cooked for simple weekday lunches.

Dilek’s Ultimate Burger/Meatball Recipe

  • 1 lb medium ground beef
  • one small onion grated
  • 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 cup bread crumbs
  • 1 egg
  • 1/4 tsp salt and pepper
  1. Mix all of the above in a bowl, try not to overmix, apparently it makes for tough burgers.
  2. Shape into four burgers or make into golf ball sized meatballs
  3. Grill on BBQ
  4. If making as meatballs, they can be cooked in the oven at 400F for about 15min.

see so simple.
