What’s Cooking In SG’s Kitchen? Ryker Suicide’s Scrumptious Sriracha Burgers0
Posted In All Things SG,Blog,Food & Drink
I’m a huge Sriracha fan. I put it on almost everything. While I was visiting a very good friend of mine in Seattle over Thanksgiving, he introduced me to The Sriracha Cookbook by Randy Clemens. There are over 50 awesome recipes with Sriracha sauce as the star ingredient. The first thing we decided to try were these scrumptious Sriracha burgers. We ended up eating them ALL week long and I have been craving them ever since that trip. Last week I decided to make them again, but I changed a few things. I tend to like my food on the much hotter side, so I tripled the Sriracha in this recipe. The original recipe calls for 10 Tablespoons. So here is my take on the “Ultimate Sriracha Burger” from The Sriracha Cookbook 🙂 Enjoy!
Ingredients:
(Serves 8 – I like to form the meat patties and freeze them for quick meals later.)
- 3 lbs ground turkey
- 1/4 cup of Worcestershire sauce
- 1 1/2 cup-ish of Sriracha sauce, plus more for drizzling
- 4 teaspoons fresh ground black pepper
- 4 slices thick cut bacon
- 3/4 cup chunky Bleu Cheese dressing
- 2 large sweet onions, julienned
- 8 thick slices of your favorite cheese (personally I am a big fan of muenster with this recipe)
- 8 whole grain hamburger buns
- Romaine lettuce or arugula
- beefsteak tomato, sliced.
Directions:
1. In a pan, cook bacon. After bacon is cooked, remove and sauté julienned onions in bacon fat letting them caramelize slowly. While onions are cooking, start preparing turkey meat.
2. In a large mixing bowl, mix half of the Sriracha, Worcestershire, and pepper. Add in ground meat. Do not over-mix, and form into 8 patties. Refrigerate while onions finish cooking.
3. When onions are done, remove from pan. Either pan sear turkey burgers, or grill (to preference) until cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees. Set burgers aside. Add cheese while cooking, or after, to preference.
4. In a small bowl, mix together remaining Sriracha sauce and bleu cheese.
5. Now it’s time to assemble! Spoon some of the Sriracha-bleu cheese dressing on bottom bun and add turkey cheeseburger on top. Add two half strips of bacon, and a portion of caramelized onion. Top with another spoonful of Bleu-Sriracha dressing. Feel free to drizzle with more Sriracha. Add top bun, serve with lettuce and tomato on side.
Eat and enjoy!!!
