Ingredients

  • 1lb ground beef/veal/lamb mixture (sells as meatloaf mix)
  • salt pepper to taste
  • 2 ciabatta rolls
  • 2 thick Vidalia onion slices
  • 1/2 ripe avocado, sliced
  • 4-6 slices of pickled beet
  • 2-3 leaves of green leaf lettuce
  • 2-4 nice tomato slices
  • favorite seedy brown mustard to taste
  • Mayo to taste
  • Catsup to taste
  • 2 fried eggs
  • 1/4 cup grated cheddar

Directions

  1. Salt and pepper ground meat to taste and form into two patties. Add burgers and onion slices to grill and cook to desired doneness, adding cheese to the patties at the last minute while still hot. Allow to rest for 5 minutes after removing from grill.
  2. While burgers are cooking fry the two eggs in a bit of oil/butter/spray/favorite lube over easy. Since you wont be eating the immediately I turn off heat after flipping and remove from burner but allowing pan to finish the other side. Setting aside and allowing to cool a bit will ensure thick yummy yolk on your burger.
  3. Lightly toast ciabatta rolls and slice for bun usage.
  4. Assemble and enjoy. If you squeeze down on the burger and hear a slight pop of the yolk you will know its perfect.

I tried this recipe looking for something easy to cook for dinner. Not only was it easy, it was excellent. I served it with onion rolls from the local supermarket– hit the spot!  Slap down some potato in fri or chip form and you’ve got a real kid pleaser.

Ingredients:

  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • 1/4 cup onion, chopped
  • 1/4 cup green bell pepper, chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon prepared yellow mustard
  • 3/4 cup ketchup
  • 3/4 teaspoon liquid smoke
  • 3 teaspoons brown sugar
  • ground black pepper to taste

Directions

  1. In a medium skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef, onion, and green pepper; drain off liquids.
  2. Stir in the garlic powder, mustard, ketchup, liquid smoke and brown sugar; mix thoroughly.
  3. Reduce heat, and simmer for 30 minutes. Season with pepper to taste.
