ingredients

1/2 cup very finely chopped red onion, green onions, onion, leek or shallots
1/4 cup beef broth or water
2 tablespoons snipped fresh Italian (flat-leaf) parsley (optional)
2 tablespoons steak sauce or barbecue sauce or 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon Dijon-style or coarse-grain mustard
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
12 ounces ground beef sirloin (90 percent lean)
12 ounces ground beef chuck (85 percent lean)
12 whole grain cocktail-size hamburger buns or small round dinner rolls, split
Assorted spreads (such as barbecue sauce, steak sauce, ketchup, Dijon-style mustard, coarse-grain mustard, yellow mustard and/or mayonnaise)
Assorted toppers (such as mini cheddar or Swiss cheese slices, Roma tomato slices, torn Bibb, leaf, or iceberg lettuce, fresh basil leaves, two-inch pieces of crisp-cooked bacon, sliced red onion, pickle relish, sweet pickle slices and/or baby kosher dill pickles (optional)

directions

In a large bowl, combine onion; broth; parsley, if you like; steak sauce; mustard; and pepper. Add ground sirloin and chuck; lightly mix together until just combined (do not over mix). Divide meat mixture into twelve portions and shape into round or square 1/2-inch-thick patties.

For a charcoal grill, grill patties on the greased rack of an uncovered grill directly over medium coals for 8 to 10 minutes or until done (160 degrees F), turning once halfway through grilling. Wrap buns in heavy foil and add to grill rack the last 5 minutes of grilling, turning once. (For a gas grill, preheat grill. Reduce heat to medium. Add patties and buns to grill rack. Cover and grill as above.)*

To serve, place burgers in buns. Serve with assorted spreads. If you like, garnish with assorted toppers. Makes 12 appetizer servings.

Tip

* Or preheat broiler. Place meat patties on the rack of a broiler pan. Broil 3- to 4-inches from the heat for 8 to 10 minutes or until done (160 degrees F), turning once halfway through broiling.
