All-American Burger with Crispy Onion Strings

Ingredients

For the Beef Patty

  • 1 LB of 93/7 ground beef
  • 1 garlic minced
  • 1/4 cup bread crumbs
  • 2 tablespoons of mayonnaise
  • Salt
  • Paprika
  • Cumin
  • Onion Powder
  • 1 teaspoon of liquid smoke

For the Onion Strings

  • 1 Large Onion
  • 1 1/2 Cup of Buttermilk
  • 2 Cups of Flour
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • Paprika
  • Cumin
  • Garlic Powder

Instructions

For the Beef Patty

  • Start by adding the beef to a large bowl.
  • Add the rest of the ingredients, and mix by hand until everything is well combined.
  • Form a large ball with the beef and move to a flat surface
  • Flatten the beef to the desired thickness, and begin cutting out round pieces (I used a bowl to cut the patties out). After cutting each patty, roll the beef back up, flatten, and repeat.
  • Wrap in plastic wrap and cook immediately, or freeze for at least an hour to make grilling easier.
  • Grill to desired cook, and add cheese.
  • Put the grilled patty on a grilled bun, then top with bacon, onion strings, BBQ sauce, pickle, and anything else.

For the Onion Strings

  • Clean and peel the onion, and then cut into very thin slices.
  • Add the onion slices to a large bowl and cover with buttermilk, let sit for 20-30 minutes.
  • In a separate bowl, combine the flour and all of the seasonings.
  • Heat the oil until hot enough to fry to the onion strings.
  • Take some of the onion strings from the buttermilk and add to the flour mixture, and then immediately to the fryer. Once golden brown, remove to a bowl lined with a paper towel and continue until all of the onions are cooked.
