Canada Day Cheeseburger Buffet
Prep Time30 Minutes
Servings8
Cook Time8 Minutes
Ingredients
2 cups shredded head or leaf lettuce
2 or 3 ripe, on-the-vine tomatoes, thinly sliced
1 medium red or white onion, halved and thinly sliced
12 to 16 strips bacon, halved, crisply cooked and drained well
fried mushrooms, to taste (optional)
hot peppers, pickles, relish, mayonnaise, mustard, ketchup and/or salsa, to taste
8 hamburger buns
8 frozen Outlaw beef burgers (see Note and Options)
1 cup barbecue sauce, or to taste
300 grams aged white cheddar cheese, thinly sliced
Directions
- Preheat your barbecue to medium-high (about 400 F in the chamber). Place the lettuce, tomatoes, onion, bacon, mushrooms (if using), hot peppers, pickles, relish, mustard, ketchup and/or salsa in individual serving bowls or other vessels. Set these burger toppings and condiments on a serving tray. Put the buns on a plate.
- Grill the burgers about 4 minutes per side, or until entirely cooked through and the centre of each burger reaches 160 F (71 C) on an instant-read meat thermometer. Spread each patty with barbecue sauce, and then top with cheese. Let the cheese melt, about 1 minute.
- Set the burger patties on a serving platter, or serve from the grill. Set out the tray of burger toppings and condiments and plate of buns. Now invite diners to this “burger buffet” and let them build their own burgers.
Note: Frozen Outlaw beef burgers are sold in boxes in our Meat Department. Cook the patties from frozen.
Options: Make your own burgers by dividing and forming 1 kilogram of lean ground beef into 8, 1/2- to 3/4-inch thick patties. Season the patties with salt and pepper, and then grill as described in the recipe.
