Ingredients
  • 1.5kg Ground Beef (70% beef / 30% fat)
  • Fresh chives, chopped
  • Garlic, coarsely chopped
  • Pickled jalapeños, sliced
  • Red onion, finely chopped
  • Ground pepper
  • Olive oil
Instructions
  • Preheat the grill to high heat, between 200°C-250°C
  • Mix all the ingredients together, make sure not to overwork the meat
  • Overworking the meat will make the burgers dense and dry
  • Gently using your hands, form meatballs with the meat then gently press them down to take the shape of burger patties
  • Lightly brush the patties with some olive oil and throw them on the grill
  • 3 minutes a side will get you a nice and pink center, 4 min for medium
Tip 1
Tip 01
Make sure that you don’t overwork and over mix the meat. Coarse is the name of the game.
Tip 2
Tip 02
Experiment with the ingredients mixed in with the meat, try chopped chorizo and smoked paprika for a Spanish style, or chopped parsley, sun-dried tomatoes and parmesan for an Italian style burger.
Tip 3
Tip 03
Ask your butcher for a coarse ground beef mix, made up from brisket and chuck for that extra beefy flavour!
