21 Club Burger
Description
The 21 Club Burger uses a blend of ground top sirloin with finely poached celery softened in chicken broth to add moisture and mild vegetal notes. Breadcrumbs, Worcestershire sauce, nutmeg, and seasoning combine for a nuanced flavor and a tender texture. The patty mixture is formed gently to avoid compacting, allowing a juicy interior after cooking.
The cooking method involves browning the burgers in butter until the exterior develops a rich amber color, then transferring the skillet to a 350°F oven to finish cooking to the desired doneness. This two-step method helps achieve a nicely crusted surface while keeping the inside moist. The finished patties are served on classic hamburger buns, making the burger straightforward but well-rounded.
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup celery finely chopped
- 1/4 cup chicken broth
- 2 pounds top sirloin ground
- 1/4 cup breadcrumbs
- 1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste, freshly ground
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 4 Hamburger Bun
Instructions
- Place the celery and chicken broth in a small saucepan over very low heat. Poach the celery for 20 minutes. Drain and let cool.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the poached celery with the ground beef, breadcrumbs, Worcestershire sauce, nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Mix well with your hands. Gently shape the mixture into 4 large patties, being careful not to compact the meat any more than necessary.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Heat the butter in a large, heavy skillet over medium heat until the butter is amber in color. Brown the burgers for 6 minutes on each side. Then transfer the skillet to the preheated oven for 6 to 8 minutes for medium rare, adding a few additional minutes if you prefer your burgers cooked beyond medium rare.
- Serve the cooked burger patties on the buns.
