Ingredients
- 1 lb (450 g) ground pork
- 1 lb (450 g) ground turkey
- 1 tbsp (15 mL) Worcestershire sauce
- 1 egg
- ⅓ cup (80 mL) panko bread crumbs
- ½ tsp (2 mL) salt
- ½ tsp (2 mL) black pepper
- 1 tbsp (15 mL) low sodium soy sauce
- 1 tsp (5 mL) olive oil
- 4 burger buns
- 4 pieces tender romaine leaves
- ½ cup (125 mL) blue cheese, i.e. Stilton, Gorgonzola, Saint Agur, etc.
CARAMELIZED ONIONS- 1 tsp (5 mL) olive oil
- 3 cups (750 mL) onions, finely sliced
- ¼ tsp (1 mL) salt
- ¼ cup (60 mL) water
- 1 tbsp (15 mL) balsamic vinegar
- 1½ tsp (7 mL) sugar
Instructions
- In a large bowl, mix together beef, Worcestershire sauce, egg, bread crumbs, salt, black pepper, soy sauce and olive oil until combined.Form into 4 equal-size patties, making sure not to compact them too hard, or they will become dense and heavy. Refrigerate until the caramelized onions are finished.
- For the caramelized onions, heat olive oil over medium-high in a medium saucepan. Add onions and cook for 5 minutes. Add a pinch of salt, ¼ cup (60 mL) water, balsamic vinegar and sugar. Lower heat to medium-low, cover and cook for 30 minutes. Remove lid, continue cooking to thicken the liquid and glaze the onions, about 3 minutes. Set aside.
- When onions are halfway finished, preheat grill to medium-high.
- Grill the burgers on one side until grill marks are attained, about 5 minutes with lid closed. Flip and grill the second side another 5 minutes. If burgers need more time to cook, move them to a cooler area on the grill to avoid burning. Finish cooking to desired doneness.
- Fill each bun with a piece of romaine lettuce, then a burger, top with onions and a large piece of blue cheese.
