CREATE THE PERFECT GAME DAY BURGER FROM WAHLBURGERS 'THE MELT' RECIPE

Steps:

• Season 5 oz patties with salt and pepper. Place the patties down on a Flat Top or BBQ grill and cook for 2 ½ minutes. While the patties are grilling, butter slices of High Crown thick-sliced white bread, and place on grill for 2 to 2 ½ minutes until golden brown. While bread is on the grill, place 1 ½ slices of Yellow American cheese on each slice of bread. Use a total of 3 slices per Melt. Next, add 6 slices of dill pickles. Flip the patties on the grill for an additional 2 ½ minutes, season with salt and pepper. They should be cooked perfectly to medium. Add caramelized onions. These can be prepared in advance of grilling. Sauteé thinly sliced onions in pan with 90/10 blend Canola and Olive oil, seasoned with salt and pepper, stirring occasionally until onions are soft and sweet. Add 2 oz to top of each patty. Add 2 slices of crispy bacon criss-crossed on top of the caramelized onions. Remove slices of bread from the grill. Spread 1 oz of homemade mustard sauce on the pickled side of toasted bread. Remove burgers from the grill and place on bread slices with the pickles and homemade mustard sauce. Place remaining slices on top, cut in diagonal, and serve with chips or fries.

GAME DAY BURGERS

Steps:

• For the onions: Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat.
• Drizzle the onion slices with the olive oil and sprinkle with the salt. Place in the hot grill pan and cook, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove to a bowl and toss with the balsamic and sugar. Cover the bowl with a piece of plastic wrap and let steam at room temperature for about 10 minutes.
• For the avocado: Mash together the avocado, lemon juice, salt and pepper flakes in a medium bowl.
• For the burgers: Heat the grill pan over medium-high heat. Form the beef into 6 even patties (about 1/3 pound each). Sprinkle the patties evenly on both sides with salt and place in the grill pan. Grill until nicely browned, about 2 minutes on the first side. Flip the burgers and cook for an additional 2 minutes. Place a slice of cheese on top of each burger and cover with a bowl or lid to allow the cheese to melt. Cook to desired doneness, about 1 minute longer for medium.
• Place a small amount of arugula on the bottom half of each toasted bun. Top with the patties, tomatoes, if using, and the grilled balsamic onions. Spread some of the avocado on the top half of the buns and close the burgers.
