Previously, I posted my mom’s amazing steak marinade<\/a>. While we were eating it last time, we were talking about how it made the steak so so good, and then wondered— could we use it in burgers?
So I boiled the leftover marinade instead of tossing it, and froze it.
Tonight, I experimented.
I took 1 # ground beef and gently tossed it with the marinade. I did our usual ‘make a burger’ cooking style (cast iron pan, preheated, salted with kosher salt, and formed patties and tossed (I am overusing that word!) them in. Sliced some red onion, tomatoes and put some fresh spinach on the buns I made yesterday (upcoming blog!) with mayo, and then put the cooked burgers on top.
They are every bit as awesome as we thought they would be.
mmmmmmm
