Ingredients and Equipment List
Ground beef – 80-85% lean is preferable. With the higher fat content you’ll get a much juicier, flavorful burger. That being said, you are welcome to make this recipe with leaner ground beef if you like. A1 Sauce – or substitute your favorite steak sauce- this gives a great flavor boost with a little bit of tang. Dijon mustard – a touch of acidic mustard gives flavor and depth. Kosher Salt and Black Pepper – for flavor. 2 cloves minced garlic – fresh garlic, as opposed to dry gives an extra burst of flavor. Oregano – just dried oregano is great. Dehydrated onion – The bits of dehydrated onion will absorb moisture from the beef mixture and add flavor to the overall burger.
