Our Favorite Hamburgers – TKDRecipes.com

Posted on | May 4, 2010 | 2 Comments

Tonight I worked on refining a recipe for good hamburgers.  The American meal.

I cooked one for our daughter (and a small one for our Jack Russell) first.  She took a bite and said “Oh my God”.  So, I guess we did pretty good.  I was then told to ‘take a bite, a small bite’ to try it.

Here’s the Hamburger recipe.  Download text of the Hamburger recipe here.  It’s MasterCook and MealMaster compatible.

Our Favorite Hamburgers – TKD

Recipe By     : TKDRecipes.com
Serving Size  : 5     Preparation Time :0:00
Categories    : dinner, lunch, hamburger

Amount  Measure       Ingredient — Preparation Method
——–  ————  ——————————–
1 1/2         pounds  hamburger — 85% lean
1               each  small onion — finely diced
1               each  egg
2          teaspoons  braggs amino acids — or 1t worcestershire sauce or soy sauce
1           teaspoon  dijon mustard
1           teaspoon  crushed garlic
1         tablespoon  hot water
1/2      teaspoon  better than bouillon – Beef

85% lean has enough fat in it to make a nice juicy burger.  If you want to
go the leaner route, the burger can easily end up dry and tough and
disapointing.

Mix items 2 – 6 in a large bowl.  Mix bouillon in 1 T of hot or boiling
water.  Add to the bowl.

Mix in the hamburger in the bowl with the other ingredients.  Form patties
and place on wax paper.  Put in fridge for 15-20 minutes to firm up.

Fry in a cast iron skillet in butter.  Don’t mess with them.  Let them
cook and get a crust before you flip.

Rest the burgers for 5+ minutes while you toast the buns in the pan/grill.
Enjoy.

Recipe: Easy Roasted Chicken

Summary: Awesome roasted chicken recipe. We cook this all the time in our house.

Ingredients

  • 1 each whole chicken
  • 2 tablespoons
  • olive oil
  • Onion powder
  • garlic powder
  • salt
  • pepper
  • citrus
  • 8 pats butter

Instructions

  1. To get this right you need a roasting pan and rack.
  2. Turn your oven on to 350 F. I prefer this cooked with a convection oven.
  3. Wash the chicken and remove the organ package. Paint the bird with olive oil. Dust the chicken with the onion powder, garlic powder, salt and pepper inside and out.
  4. Place the chicken on the rack breast side up. Put some water in the bottom of the pan. I usually put citrus in the cavity. I’ve used onions, lemons and even a tangelo before, another way to go would be to stuff it with herbs.
  5. Put pats of butter on top of the chicken in 6-8 places.
  6. Pop it in your preheated oven and cook till it reaches 180. 1-1.5 hours depending on your oven and what temp your chicken was when you started.
  7. Remove when done and rest it for 10-15 minutes. This chicken comes out perfect every time we’ve done it.
Tomorrow we will probably be having chicken curry with the left overs.
