Peanut Butter Sriracha Bacon Cheeseburger
Typically I’m immune to a seemingly odd concept, and a peanut butter cheeseburger was undoubtedly a kind of concepts. In my travels across the Southern US, I’d seen burgers on a number of menus that had peanut butter slathered onto the burger.
It appeared to be a mainstay concept on a number of of the meals vans featured on a number of the meals community reveals too. Nonetheless it appeared odd, so I didn’t trouble to strive it.
After I was in Halifax final week for a TV look, a pal recommended Darrell’s Restaurant on Fenwick Avenue. She insisted I lastly strive their peanut butter burger which had a number of instances been voted finest burger on the town.

Does a peanut butter burger make sense?
I started to consider the combo of beef and peanut butter and thought, “Nicely beef satay and peanut sauce goes nicely collectively why not in a burger.”

I gave in and ordered one. I cherished it. The creamy sweetness of the peanut butter paired with the salty bacon and cheddar was superb. It was a terrific complement to the meat. I completed it off very quickly.
The subsequent day I returned house however couldn’t get that burger out of my thoughts. I used to be craving it massive time. I simply needed to create my very own spin on a peanut butter burger. All it wanted was an additional spicy kick to make it even higher I assumed.
I added some sriracha sauce to the bottom beef and created a sriracha and smoked paprika mayo as a brand new condiment. BOOM!…it was excellent.
Simply to excellent the burger recipe, I had it twice this week and photographed it twice to verify it appeared pretty much as good because it tastes. Oh the sacrifices I make for my readers. 😉

Grinding beef your self
In recent times I’ve additionally began coarsely grinding my very own beef for burgers and the distinction in flavour and texture is unbelievable. Fairly often the bottom beef offered in supermarkets has too excessive a fats content material and makes use of much less flavourful cuts of beef. The feel may are usually spongy, in my view.
For the beefiest tasting , finest textured burgers I take advantage of the meat grinder attachment for my Kitchen Assist mixer. I desire utilizing the coarse grind disk within the attachment for burgers.

Search for meat that’s nicely marbled or has sufficient exterior fats that, when mixed collectively will hit that ratio. One other glorious concept is to make use of half beef brisket, some of the flavourful cuts of beef, as a part of the meat mix. You should use half and half however wherever between 30% and 50% brisket will yield extremely beefy tasting burgers.
Freezing
I do like to make use of recent beef as a lot as attainable when making burgers but when I’ve to freeze some, I take advantage of a double layer of parchment paper between the burger patties for simpler separation of the patties after they have to be thawed.
I all the time wrap the stacked patties in a number of layers of plastic wrap to forestall any freezer burn harm. In any case, it’s best to make use of them inside a few months, for them to be at their finest.
