Ingredients

  • 1 batch whiskey honey onions
  • 1 lb beef shaped into 4 patties
  • 1 tbsp ghee
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • sharp cheddar cheese optional
  • 4 brioche hamburger buns
  • For the green chili:

  • 1 tbsp butter
  • OR 1/2 cup green chili sauce per burger

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In pan you used to make whiskey honey onions (DONT CLEAN PAN AFTER MAKING, it will give more flavor to the burgers), melt ghee over medium high heat.
  2. Shape burgers into patties (I like to use a burger press).
  3. Generously season burgers with salt and pepper.
  4. Add burgers to pan when ghee is melted, and cook 5 minutes on each side.
  5. When burgers are done to your liking, add a slice of cheese (if desired), and add lid to pan to melt cheese.
  6. When cheese is melted, remove from pan.
  7. Add green chilis to burger bun and place burger on top.
  8. Garnish with onions, place bun on top, and serve immediately!
  9. For the green chilis: sauté in pan with butter, garlic powder, and cumin until hot. Use as burger garnish; OR add sauce to burger bun.
