Mustard On Hamburgers

[robb1138]

I like a ratio of 70% ketchup and 30% mustard.
And lots o mayo!!!!

My favorite burger:

Grilled Hamburgers with Garlic, Chipotles, and Scallions

3 medium cloves of garlic , unpeeled
1 tablespoon chipotle chile en adobo minced
2 tablespoons minced scallions
1 1/2 pounds 80 percent lean ground chuck
1 teaspoon table salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
vegetable oil for oiling grill rack
4 buns and desired topppings


1. Toast unpeeled garlic cloves in small dry skillet over medium heat, shaking pan occasionally, until fragrant and color deepens slightly, about 8 minutes. When cool enough to handle, peel and mince cloves.

2. Ignite about 6 quarts (1 large chimney or about 6 pounds) charcoal and burn until coals are completely covered with thin coating of light gray ash, 20 to 30 minutes. Spread coals evenly over grill bottom, position grill rack above the coals, and heat until medium-hot (you can hold your hand 5 inches above grill surface for no longer than 3 or 4 seconds).

3. Meanwhile, break up ground chuck with your hands in medium bowl. Sprinkle garlic, chipotle chile en adobo, scallions, salt, and pepper over meat; toss lightly with hands to distribute seasonings. Divide meat into four 6-ounce portions. Gently toss one portion of meat back and forth between hands to form loose ball. Lightly flatten into patty 3/4-inch thick and about 4 1/2-inches in diameter. Gently press center of patty down until about 1/2-inch thick, creating a slight depression in each patty; repeat with remaining portions of meat.

4. Scrape hot grill rack clean with wire brush. Lightly dip wadded paper towels in vegetable oil; holding wad with tongs, wipe grill rack. Grill patties, uncovered, without pressing down on them, until well seared on first side, about 2 1/2 minutes. Flip burgers with metal barbecue spatula; continue grilling about 2 minutes for rare, 2 1/2 minutes for medium-rare, or 3 minutes for medium. Serve immediately.

A hamburger needs but six items:

Bun
Good ground beef
Bacon
Cheese
Lettuce
Mayo

That's one good burger. I hate mustard and ketchup. Here's a tip: My dad often would mix in a package of onion soup mix into the ground beef to help extend/fill/flavor it. Try it, then grill them up. They become damn good.

P.S. before we get a new poll, I like my hot dogs plain. I want to taste the hot dog and all the yummy, unnatural ingredients mixed inside, not spoil it with other tastes. Plus there's that whole "hate mustard and ketchup thing" and mayo just isn't right on a hot dog.

I don't think I like mustard. I keep thinking that, but for some reason I love it on McDonald's hamburgers.

[BigTwinky]

Not my actual e-mail though. Just my MSN name. I haven't checked that emial in about 5 years.

Oh damn, so you haven't been receiving my love letters?

If there is anything else on it then someone else can eat it.

[Sub-Human]

No Tomatos or Mushrooms, pretty much everything else is fair game.
I prefer ground sirloin for the meat, its much leaner and tastes better to me.

I have renounced beef products a while back but when I did eat it, mustard was a must.
