Return of Lucy. So very Juicy

HendersonTRKing

It was that time again. Ground some chuck and sirloin. Hit it with a bit of Montreal. Stuffed with a mix of fontina (funky) and cheddar (sharp). Egged and crusted up on the CI. Topped with pickled jalapeños, bacon, iceberg and secret sauce (Dukes, chopped pickled jalapeños, Heinz). Served with tots. Heaven.

Home ground meat is where it's at.  Beautiful job.

Fantastic!

Dang! Those burgers look incredible. If I tried that I’d have cheese everywhere and stuff falling apart. Well done!

How long roughly do you cook these direct on the egg compared to regular burgers? I’m assuming they go quicker since the middle is cheese instead of meat. 

Also love the combo of grilling them searing on cast iron at the end for a smashburger type crust, best of both worlds. They look incredible!

Thx, all!  Forgot to mention that the secret sauce has some Tabasco pepper jelly mixed in. That stuff is awesome and can be used in all sorts of unexpected ways!

Depends on the patty thickness and temp, but about 4-5 minutes a side does it at 450-500 degrees and the grid below the felt to get that initial char before the CI does the rest. 

I usually like my burgers on the rarer side of medium rare (Mooooooo!!!), especially with my own grind. But I’ve found that for this application, the medium side of medium rare works best. Otherwise it’s a complete sloppy mess. (Not that there’s anything wrong with that!)

Yum!

This might be the finest execution of the Jucy Lucy I’ve seen.

Nice burgers.  I’ve been watching the Burger Show on YouTube. Anything with the burger scholar George Motz is interesting to me. The guy knows burgers. Here’s one video;

Looks amazing. The spice got me thinking..... Ever been to Montreal? It’s worth a trip. Vibrant city with a lot to do. A lot of beautiful people.
