BURGERS
- 1 1/2 lbs. (750 g) lean ground beef
- 5 oz. (150 g) Montréal smoked meat (substitute corned beef or pastrami), cut into small pieces
- 5 oz. (150 g) Black Forest ham, cut into small pieces
- 1/4 cup Panko® breadcrumbs
- 3 tbsp. onions, finely chopped
- 1 tsp. barbecue seasoning
- 1/2 tsp. garlic salt
- 1/2 tsp. freshly ground black pepper, or to taste (I always use mixed peppercorns)
- 4 hamburger buns see Recipe
- 8 slices American cheese
- 4 butter lettuce leaves
- 4 slices tomatoes
- 4 tbsp. hot banana peppers, as needed
MUSTARD SAUCE
- 3 tbsp. mayo see Recipe
- 1 1/2 tbsp. prepared mustard
- 1 1/2 tbsp. creamy horseradish, or more see Recipe
Directions
- In a large bowl, combine ground beef, Montréal smoked meat, ham, panko, onions, BBQ seasoning, garlic salt and freshly ground black pepper. Using clean hands, mix the ingredients until well blended.
- Form 4 patties with the mixture and place them on a plate.
- Cover tightly with plastic wrap and transfer them to the fridge for 1 hour.
- Mix all the mustard sauce ingredients in a small bowl; set aside.
- Sixty minutes later, take the patties out of the fridge, remove the cling film and let them sit on the counter for about 20 minutes.
- Preheat the barbecue to 500ºF
- Place the patties on the grates, close the lid and grill them for about 6 to 7 minutes on each side.
- Three minutes before they’re done, place the hamburger buns on the top rack to toast, about 2 minutes.
- Remove the buns and set them aside.
- Place a couple slices of processed cheese, close the lid and cook until melted, about 1 minute.
- To assemble the burgers, place lettuce, meat patty, a slice of tomato, hot banana peppers and then spread a generous amount of our mustard sauce on the bun.
