For gourmet burgers, or just lean burgers in general, we recommend the least amount of fat.

 

2. Prep and Cooking.

Touch the ground beef as little as possible!

 

3. Its what’s on the Inside that Counts:

4. Let’s Top This Thing Off!:

Now being of a creative mind I have made a caprese inspired burger with tomato, fresh mozzarella and basil on a ciabatta bun. This was a delicious combo and I was eager to get grilling again. But first I wanted to do my research. With endless flavor options I am not sure what I would find but these recipes are awesome!

 

·  Mediterranean Burger: Beef patty seasoned with Mediterranean spices (hot paprika, garlic, cumin, oregano leaves, mint leaves), grilled and served with Greek yogurt sauce in pita bread.

·  Brie Burger: Herb crusted Brie, warmed and placed over granny smith apples atop a lean ground beefwith a hint of mustard.

·  Tex-Mex Burger: Grilled ground beef piled with guacamole, onions and bacon.

·  Breakfast Omelette Burger: Grilled ground beef patty piled high with diced ham, Cheddar cheese, mushrooms and green peppers, served on a toasted English muffin. This burger is a bit rare, but the Best Boston Restaurants will be glad to make it for you.

·  Hawaiian Supreme: Ground beef patty stuffed with crushed pineapple, topped with a candied apple slice and sweet & sour sauce.

·  Caribbean Burger: Season with jerk seasoning, pickled hot peppers and mango chutney.

·  Fajita Beef Burger: Patty mixed with fajita seasoning, and wrapped with guacamole, sour cream, shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes and salsa, served in a flour tortilla.

·  Bruschetta Burger: Italian seasoned ground beef with fresh tomato and basil, served on toasted garlic French bread.

·  Bistro Burger: Ground beef covered with caramelized onions, Brie cheese and crisp bacon, served on a walnut bun.

 

And for some adventuresome burger lovers, the Spicy California Roll Burger: a thin layer of sri-racha sauce + mayo mixed, avocado, cucumbers, and a little cream cheese.
