Smoky & Spicy Burger Recipe

grass-fed burger

Make burger night truly delicious. Oregon Country Beef seems to cook up more tender and juicy than conventional beef, with a more neutral flavor. I love that the subtle spices of this burger seasoning come through.

This burger recipe would also be a delicious taco filling. Simply cook on the stovetop and  add to your favorite taco fillings.

Smoky & Spicy Pasture-raised Burgers

INGREDIENTS
  • 16-ounces pasture-raised ground beef
  • 1/2 yellow onion, finely diced
  • 1 serrano pepper, finely diced
  • 1/2 tablespoon Worchestershire sauce
  • 1/2 tablespoon stone ground mustard
  • 1/2 tablespoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 tablespoon seasoning mix
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Cheddar or pepper jack cheese slices (optional)
METHOD
  1. Mix all ingredients in a large bowl, making sure diced onion and serrano pepper are distributed throughout the hamburger mixture.
  2. Form 4–5 equally sized balls of hamburger meat.
  3. Form 3/4” thick patties and place on wax paper.
  4. Pan fry or grill to desired doneness, placing a slice of cheese on each burger and covering for the last minute.

    sesame seed buns.
