- 2 1/2 tablespoons bourbon (recommended: Bulleit brand)
- 1 1/2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 1/4 teaspoons dried oregano
- 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin (http://www.foodterms.com/encyclopedia/cumin/index.html)
- 1 1/4 teaspoons table salt
- 30 grinds fresh black pepper
- 6 ounces Dubliner cheese (http://www.foodterms.com/encyclopedia/cheese/index.html) (Kerrygold brand), thinly sliced and divided into 6 (1-ounce) servings
Sauteed Onions: - 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter (European style)
- 1 large Vidalia onion, halved (through the core (http://www.foodterms.com/encyclopedia/core/index.html)) and thinly sliced (1/4-inch)
- 1/4 teaspoon table salt
- 8 grinds fresh black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/4 cup bourbon (http://www.foodterms.com/encyclopedia/bourbon/index.html) (recommended: Bulleit brand)
Buns: - Brioche (http://www.foodterms.com/encyclopedia/brioche/index.html) hamburger (http://www.foodterms.com/encyclopedia/hamburger/index.html)-sized buns, halved
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter (European style), at room temperature
Directions Combine well-chilled ground chuck with bourbon and Worcestershire sauce (http://www.foodterms.com/encyclopedia/worcestershire-sauce/index.html) and mix lightly with a fork to combine. Add oregano, cumin, salt, and pepper and mix lightly with a fork to combine. Combine more thoroughly with hands, being careful not to over mix. Separate meat mixture into 6 even portions and form into patties. Set patties on a board.
Heat nonstick grill pan over medium-high heat.
Heat olive oil and butter in nonstick skillet over medium heat for 1 minute. Add onion (http://www.foodterms.com/encyclopedia/onion/index.html) slices to skillet and toss in the oil and butter. Add salt, pepper, oregano (http://www.foodterms.com/encyclopedia/oregano/index.html), and cumin and toss. Continue to saute onions, but start cooking burgers.
Place patties on grill pan and cook for 2 1/2 minutes on 1 side. Flip (http://www.foodterms.com/encyclopedia/flip/index.html) patties and place cheese on top of each. Cook for 1 minute and then tent foil over patties and cook for 1 1/2 minutes. Remove patties from grill and place on a clean board. Replace foil tent over patties and let rest for 5 minutes. Turn heat under grill pan (http://www.foodterms.com/encyclopedia/grill-pan/index.html) down to low and give pan a quick wipe with a damp paper towel (held in tongs).
Once onions start to turn slightly golden, pour bourbon into skillet, off the burner. Once alcohol (http://www.foodterms.com/encyclopedia/alcohol/index.html) cooks off, turn heat under skillet down to low, and let onions absorb liquid.
Place bun halves on grill pan and toast until lightly golden, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from grill pan and butter with 1/2 tablespoon of butter per bun. Place 1 patty (http://www.foodterms.com/encyclopedia/patty/index.html) on each bun bottom, top with approximately 1/4 cup onions, and bun top.
Serve and enjoy!
