Instructions
Make the Dry Rub
- Combine coffee rub seasoning mix ingredients in a small bowl and mix together with a fork. Set aside.
Make the BBQ Sauce
- Melt butter over MED heat in a saucepan. Add onion and garlic and saute until soft and translucent, about 6-8 minutes.
- Add remaining bbq sauce ingredients, stirring to combine. Bring to a low boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes, until sauce has thickened.
- Pour sauce into blender or food processor and puree. Set aside to cool.
Cook and Assemble the Burgers
- To a mixing bowl, add ground beef, heavy cream, salt, and black pepper. Mix well with your hands. Divide into 6 equal sections. Each burger will be about 1/3 pound.
- Use your thumbs to press a half dollar sized divot in the center of each patty (this will help prevent the burger from doming up while cooking).
- Liberally rub coffee seasoning mix over both sides of each burger.
- Preheat grill over MED HIGH heat and lightly brush grates with vegetable oil if desired. Grill burgers, for about 5 minutes per side, or until desired doneness is achieved.
- While burgers are grilling, toast buns on the grill as well.
- To serve, spread bbq sauce over the top and bottom buns, then top the bottom bun with a piece of lettuce, a cooked burger, a smear of more bbq sauce, some bacon, then top with the top bun.
Notes
- Recipe makes 6 (1/3 lb each) burgers.
- Heat a large heavy bottomed skillet (like a cast iron skillet) over MED HIGH heat.
- Once hot, add a small drizzle of vegetable oil and add buns, sliced side down.
- Toast until buns are golden brown, then set aside.
- To the hot skillet, add 1 Tbsp butter and 1 Tbsp vegetable oil. Once melted, add burgers, 3 at a time.
- Cook about 5 minutes per side, or until desired doneness is achieved.
- Repeat with remaining 3 burgers.
