It’s that time again! Yup…Burger Time!

You can buy some frozen patties and throw them on the grill OR you can feed your family and friends something a little more special. Why settle for ordinary when you can create something that everyone will rave about. It’s really not that hard. All it takes is a little bit of prep time. This recipe took me about fifteen minutes to prepare and 20 minutes to cook. Believe me, it’s well worth the effort!

Ingredients – Burgers

• One pound of lean ground beef
• Half an onion
• 5 strips of uncooked bacon
• 1 cup of shredded cheddar
• 1 small jalapeño pepper
• 2 eggs
• And of course…3 tbsp of Dechant Spice

Ingredients – Sautéed Mushrooms

• 6 large mushrooms
• 1 tbsp oil
• 1/2 cup butter
• 1 tbsp Dechant Spice

Preparation – Burgers

1. Dice the onion fine.
2. Slice open the jalapeño, remove the seeds and dice fine.
3. Dice the bacon.
4. In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, onion, jalapeño, cheese, bacon and Dechant Spice.
5. Crack eggs into the bowl.
6. Mix it all up and form into patties.

   

Grilling

1. Preheat grill to 400 F and spray with oil.
2. Throw the patties on and start cooking. Size and thickness of the pattie will determine the cooking time. These took me about 10 minutes per side.
3. While the patties are grilling, you can prepare the toppings…lettuce, tomato, pickles, avocado OR your favourite topping.
4. How about trying some of my sautéed mushrooms

   

Sautéed Mushrooms

1. Slice six large mushrooms.
2. Heat frying pan on high and add 1 tablespoon of oil and 1/2 cup of butter.
3. Add mushrooms and reduce heat to medium high.
4. Add 1 tablespoon of Dechant Spice.
5. Salute mushrooms until they start to soften and remove from heat. This will take less than 5 minutes.
