Sure, the humblest iterations of the hamburger have become ubiquitous junk food, but with a bit of effort and a whole lotta love, the hamburger can quickly become one of the world’s most delicious foods; an annual rite of summer that makes incredible use of the backyard BBQ – and a dish that deserves the perfect wine match. When I start thinking of ways to elevate a burger, my mind immediately turns to the patty.
Whether it’s adding bold and creative flavour additions to a conventional beef patty, like fresh herbs, a bit of spice or heat, or even stuffing that bad boy with some cheese, one needn’t spend a fortune to add a whack of big bold flavour. But the ability to get creative with burgers doesn’t stop there – from grilled gorgeous meaty veggies like zucchini or Portobello mushroom, to rich decadent seafood (like crab or lobster burgers) to breaking down a pile of chorizo or andouille sausage, we haven’t held back this week, with a collection of 5 burger recipes that will instantly make your next summer BBQ the talk of the town…
