trying mayo crust another way

Posts: 25,890
Thursday nights are late supper nights for us. It also means something simple, but good. I've been perfecting a burger we love for years with toppings of melted cheddar cheese, grilled onion and bacon. The bun has a favorite homemade BBQ sauce on top and the bottom bun has bleu cheese dressing. the burgers are 1/3 pounders and are hit with Penzeys AZ Dreaming, garlic salt and DP Cow Lick rub. Tonight I decided to up the ante...I opened a new jar of Duke's Mayo and added a nice layer hopefully to make a great crust to sear in the goodness. Sorry that this is just a teaser so far, but supper still isn't for a while yet.

LOL - may be, but if this mayo trick creates the tasty and sealing bark like it did for my spare ribs I know I'll be hooked!Dobie said:Mayo intervention :-?Re-gasketing America one yard at a time. -
I like the idea, waiting to see if it worksXL, 2 Large, Mini -- Shenandoah, TX Now BulletGrillHouse

LOL - I do too! I would hate to screw up our favorite burger, but then I like to see what else might kick our love of it even higher. Experimenting with food is a risk, but hey, it isn't sky diving either!Cm23 said:I like the idea, waiting to see if it worksRe-gasketing America one yard at a time. -
I suppose the egg in the mayo is acting like an egg wash. This is interesting.

I use mayo instead of butter on the outside of the bread when I make grilled cheese sandwiches. You get a much better crust this way.

This mayo thing is life changing. With @RRP as the leader. Now @shtgunal3 has added a new dimension to my grilled cheese.Huntsville, Al LBGE

You have to trust me on this one as the picture doesn't really do the results the justice it deserves since these DELICIOUS burgers were buried under the onions, cheese and bacon - BUT the crust on the meat ROCKED! I will do burgers this way again!

Love it. If it's as good as the rib cook then I'm all in. I'm buying stock in mayo! ;;)Every day is a bonus day and every meal is a banquet in Winter Springs, Fl !

With all that mayo you're eating you might need to work some ground lipitor into your rub.

Not a mayo fan, but I think I'll be giving this a shot. Assuming it doesn't have the mayo taste (like how there's no mustard taste when using it with a dry rub)?Large - Mini - Blackstone 17", 28", 36"

you are correct - at least neither my wife or I can detect any mayo taste.fence0407 said:Not a mayo fan, but I think I'll be giving this a shot. Assuming it doesn't have the mayo taste (like how there's no mustard taste when using it with a dry rub)?Re-gasketing America one yard at a time. -
Sounds good. Count me in on the mayo bandwagon. I have been doing the mayo on grilled cheese for a while and we also put mayo in the buns of our baked chili dogs. I cant wait to try on burger and ribs. Sounds great. Thanks for leading the charge Ron!Extra Large, Large, DigiQII, Thermapen, Adjustable Rig

Excellent! I usually mix up my ground beef with an egg, dry rub and sometimes dales or something similar and then form into the patties. Should I mix the mayo in with all of that, or spread it on the patties after they've been formed?RRP said:

I'm not a fan of mixing anything inside ground beef, but instead due to the success I had with mayo on spare ribs producing a crust I just spread it on the outside as a binder.fence0407 said:

FWIW, something I've tried that I liked pretty much was grilled ham and cheese sandwiches w. mayo spread on the outside to crisp the bread instead of butter.

How about this - mayo on a boston butt followed by your favorite rub?LBGE, Marietta, GA

Mayo is the crossroads of oil and butter. Its been the secret ingredient in my tandoori chicken for years - gives it a certain "self-basting" kind of effect.#1 LBGE December 2012 • #2 SBGE February 2013 • #3 Mini May 2013A happy BGE family in Houston, TX.
