Serves: 4 - 6
Prep time: 5 minutes
Cook time: 12 minutes
Direct Heat: 500F - 525F
What you'll need:
- 1 lb lean ground beef
- 1/2 lb ground sausage or ground pork
- 40 g (1 1/2 oz) packet of dried French Onion Soup Mix
- 1/2 cup fresh grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons Ranch dressing
- 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
- another 1/2 cup fresh grated Parmesan to top grilled burgers before coming off the grill
- French's brand french fried onions (optional)
- lettuce, tomato and other toppings of choice
Tip: use French's brand french fried onions on top of the burgers just before they come off the grill.
Grate your second 1/2 cup of Parmesan and have it ready to top the patties when you flip them on the grill, then top with the french fried onions.
Step 1:
Add the first 7 ingredients of this hamburger patties recipe to a large bowl and mix well with wet hands to combine.
Step 2:
Place about 1/2 cup of the meat mixture in your hands (wet hands with water first) and gently form hamburger patties about 3/4" thick.
With your thumb make a small indent in the center of each patty, this helps counter the puffing up effect hamburger patties have while grilling.
Place the patties in the refrigerator for an hour before grilling.
Grilling cold patties helps prevent the fat from rendering too quickly over the heat and losing moisture.
Step 3:
Clean and oil the grates of the barbeque well and preheat to between 500F and 525F.
When the grill reaches this temperature take the hamburger patties from the refrigerator and place on the grill.
Close the lid.
If you'd like the diamond shape grill marks then rotate each hamburger about 45 degrees after 2 or 3 minutes.
Step 4:
After 5 minutes the burgers should be ready to flip - check underneath and if browning up with nice grate marks then go ahead and flip them.
Put some of the grated Parmesan cheese on top of each flipped hamburger.
Place some of the French's fried onions on top of the cheese on each hamburger.
Close the lid for another 5 minutes.
Lift the lid, the cheese and onions should be browning and the burgers should be cooked.
The internal temperature of the patties should be about 160F - 165F if you want to check.
Remove the grilled burgers and tent some foil over them for 5 minutes before serving.
Enjoy!
