Ingredients:
- 1 pound unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh sage
- 2 tablespoons chopped flat leaf parsley
- 1 tablespoon chopped chives
- 1 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary
- 2 pounds freshly ground beef:
(a combination chuck & shoulder
works best)
- Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
- Vegetable oil for grill
- Baby lettuce
In a medium bowl, make compound herb butter by combining softened
butter, thyme, sage, parsley, chives, and rosemary; this can also be
done in a food processor. Turn out onto parchment or plastic wrap and
roll into a log, 1 1/2-to 2-inches in diameter. Chill until firm, or freeze
for up to one month
Heat grill or grill pan. Form 4 eight-ounce burgers, 1-inch thick. Cut
four 1/4-inch thick slices of compound butter from the log. Make an indentation
in the center of each burger, and place half of a 1/4-inch slice of compound
butter inside. Reshape meat to cover butter, making sure it is not visible from
either side; season both sides with salt and pepper. Oil grill with a small amount
of vegetable oil to prevent sticking. Grill burgers for 5 to 7 minutes per side for
medium doneness. Remove from grill and place each burger on a baby lettuce leaf
and serve.
Note: This might just be the best burger you've ever had. If you try these,
write and let us know what you think!
