STEAKHOUSE BURGERS

Steps:

• Preheat the grill to high heat.
• In a large bowl, mash the bread and milk together with a fork until it forms a chunky paste. Add the salt, pepper, garlic, Worcestershire sauce and ketchup and mix well.
• Add the ground beef and scallions and break the meat up with your hands. Mix everything together until evenly combined. Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions and form compact balls. Flatten the balls into ¾-inch patties about 4½ inches across. Form a slight depression in the center of each patty to prevent the burgers from puffing up on the grill.
• Oil the grilling grates. Grill the burgers, covered, until nicely browned on the first side, 2 to 4 minutes. Flip burgers and continue cooking for a few minutes more until desired doneness is reached. Before serving, toast the buns on the cooler side of the grill if desired.
• Freezer-Friendly Instructions: The uncooked burgers can be frozen for up to three months. (Freeze the burgers on a baking sheet or plate so their shape sets, then transfer them to a sealable plastic bag for easy storage.) Defrost the burgers overnight in the refrigerator prior to serving and then cook as directed.

THE BEST CHEESEBURGER SUB

Steps:

• Place the ground beef in a large nonstick skillet set over med/high height. Break up the beef and let it begin to brown.
• Add the onion and stir well. Let the beef brown, then drain off the fat. (I use a colander).
• While the beef cooks, whisk together all the ingredients for the sub sauce.
• Season the beef well, add the worcestershire sauce, and then add in the cheese. Stir until it begins to melt. Turn off the heat.
• Split each roll lengthwise on top, but don't cut fully through the bottom. Scoop out some of the bread from the middle and spread each sub roll with some mayonnaise.
• Divide the beef between the rolls. Drizzle with sub sauce and sprinkle with parmesan. Top with lettuce, tomatoes and onion and serve.

THE BIG DOUBLE CHEESEBURGER & SECRET SAUCE

Steps:

• Tip the onions into a small bowl and pour over boiling water from the kettle until just covered. Leave to cool. Put all the sauce ingredients in another small bowl, then add 1 tbsp of the cooled onion water and mix until everything is evenly combined. Set aside.
• Halve two of the burger buns, then cut a thick slice from the middles of the other two buns. Toast or grill the middle slices on both sides and the other buns only on the cut sides, then set aside. Heat the oven to 100C/80C fan/gas 2.
• Divide the mince into four loose piles and season. Heat ¼ tbsp of the oil in a heavy frying pan or skillet over a high heat and put one of the piles of beef in the pan. Working quickly, cover with a square of baking parchment and carefully use a second pan to press the beef patties down - be careful of the heat and rising steam as you do this. Keep the patties pressed down for about 10 seconds, then remove the weight and the paper, and leave the burger to cook for 2 mins more. Turn the patties and press down using a spatula, cooking for another 1 min. Transfer to a tray and keep warm in the oven while you cook the other burgers in the same way.
• When all the patties are cooked, it's time to assemble the burgers. Spread some sauce over the bun bases, scatter with onions, then add lettuce, followed by a cheese slice, then a patty, a few gherkin slices and a middle slice of toasted bun. Spread over more sauce, then add more onions, lettuce, another patty and the bun tops. Serve with the oven fries and extra sauce on the side, if you like.

• Split the whole pack of attached dinner rolls in half horizontally. Place the top and bottom halves cut-side up on a baking sheet. Broil until toasted, 1 to 3 minutes. Remove from the oven and preheat to 400 degrees F.
• Spread the cut sides of both bread pieces with the spicy mayonnaise. Spread the beef mixture on the bottom bread piece in a thick even layer; top with the cheese. Cover with the top bread piece. Bake until the bread is toasted and the cheese is melted, 10 to 12 minutes.

CHOPPED CHEESEBURGERS

Steps:

• Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the vegetable oil, then add the onion, ground beef, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, undisturbed, until the beef starts to develop a crust, 1 to 2 minutes. Flip with a spatula, breaking up the meat. Continue cooking until browned, about 30 more seconds. Stir in the pickled peppers, then arrange the cheese over the meat mixture; remove from the heat and let melt.
• Spread the mayonnaise on both sides of the rolls. Divide the beef among the roll bottoms using a spatula. Top with lettuce, tomatoes, ketchup, hot sauce and the roll tops. Serve with potato chips.

DOUBLE-STACK MUSHROOM AND CHICKEN CHEESEBURGERS

Steps:

• Pulse mushrooms with ½ tsp. Diamond Crystal or ¼ tsp. Morton kosher salt in a food processor until very finely chopped. (Alternatively, finely chop mushrooms by hand, then toss with salt in a medium bowl and let sit 2 minutes.) Transfer mushrooms to a clean kitchen towel, gather ends together, and wring over bowl to remove as much moisture as possible. Reserve liquid for another use.
• Mix mushrooms and chicken in a large bowl with your hands until well combined. Divide mixture into 8 balls and gently form into patties about ¼" thick. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet.
• Prepare a grill for high heat; lightly oil grate. Drizzle onion with oil and season with salt. Grill on cooler edges of grill, turning occasionally, until slightly softened and charred, about 8 minutes. Transfer onion to a platter.
• Season tops of patties with salt and pepper. Place, seasoned side down, on grate and season second side with salt and pepper. Grill until edges are browned, about 2 minutes. Flip and top with cheese. Grill until patties are cooked through and cheese is melted, about 2 minutes. Transfer patties to platter with onion.
• Grill buns, cut side down, until lightly charred, about 30 seconds. Spread cut sides of bottom buns with mayonnaise and top buns with mustard. Layer pickles, grilled onion, 2 patties, and lettuce on bottom buns, then close up burgers.
