How to Grill a Mouthwatering Brisket Burger on the Weber Kettle: Freshly Ground Brisket Flat Recipe
Introduction
There’s nothing like the tantalizing smell of a freshly grilled burger wafting through the air. And when that burger is made from ground brisket and cooked to perfection on a Weber Kettle grill, it’s guaranteed to be a showstopper. So, for all those grill masters out there who want to impress their guests, let’s dive into the details of making a mouthwatering brisket burger from scratch.
Ingredients
Before you start grinding your brisket, make sure you have all the necessary ingredients. Here’s what you’ll need for this recipe:
- 2 lbs brisket flat
- 6 slices of bacon
- 1 cup blue cheese crumbles
- 1/2 cup prepared horseradish
- 1/2 cup store-bought BBQ sauce
- Salt and pepper to taste
Preparation
To begin, set your brisket in the freezer for about 20 minutes to ensure that it’s cold enough to grind. Meanwhile, fry the bacon until it’s crispy, then chop it into small pieces and set it aside. Next, mix the horseradish and BBQ sauce together in a small bowl and set it aside. Now it’s time to start grinding the brisket.
Grinding the Brisket
Using a meat grinder, grind the brisket using the largest die setting. Be sure to keep the meat as cold as possible during this process. Once the meat has been ground, it’s time to start forming the patties.
Forming the Patties
To make sure your patties are uniform in shape and size, use a burger ring to form them. Then, place each patty on a plate and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Once all the patties have been formed, place them in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes to chill — this will help prevent them from sticking to the grill.
Grilling the Brisket Burgers
Now it’s time to get that Weber Kettle grill fired up. Set it to medium-high heat and oil the grates to prevent the patties from sticking. Once the grill is nice and hot, place the patties on and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 160°F. When the burgers are almost done, add a generous handful of blue cheese crumbles on top, and then a spoonful of bacon pieces. Wait until the blue cheese starts to melt and the bacon is heated through, and then remove from the grill.
Toppings
To finish off your brisket burgers, top them with a dollop of horseradish BBQ sauce. This will give them a tangy kick that pairs perfectly with the smoky flavor of the brisket. Serve them up with your favorite sides, and enjoy!
