Real Hamburgers (Ina Garten)

  • 2 pounds ground chuck
  • 1 pound ground sirloin
  • 3 T. steak sauce
  • 6 extra-large egg yolks
  • 1-1/2 t. kosher salt
  • 3/4 t. black pepper
  • 4 T. cold unsalted butter
  • 12 hamburger buns
Carefully mix the meats, steak sauce, egg yolks, salt and pepper with the tines of a fork, but do not mash it.  Lightly form each hamburger and lightly press into a patty shape.  Make an indentation and put a think slice of butter inside each hamburger, making sure the butter is entirely encased in the meat.

Heat a grill, broiler or saute pan and cook the hamburger for 3 to 5 minutes on each side until almost done.  Remove to a plate and cover with aluminum foil.  Allow the hamburgers to rest for 5 minutes and serve immediately on buns.

    I've been comparing the price of boneless chuck roast to hamburger and usually its cheaper to buy the roast and have the butcher grind it. Before grilling brush with butter or oil so it doesn't stick. I got to try this recipe. Thanks Kia.

Shar's Basic Whole Wheat Bread

6 cups warm water, approx. 115 degrees 2 tbs. Sea salt 2/3 cup canola oil 2/3 cup honey 3 tbs. Dough enhancer 2 cups high gluten bread flour or 1/3 cup vital wheat gluten 3 tbs. Saf instant yeast 6 to 8 cups of fresh ground flour (to begin with) (10 to 11 cups of un-ground grain will make enough flour for this recipe) Use the momentary switch (m) to mix well. Turn the machine to speed 1 and continue to add wheat flour only until the dough begins to pull away from the sides of the bowl. When you can see the sides pull clean as well as the dough coming clean from the bottom of the bowl you know you have enough flour. (do not add too much flour) the dough should be very sticky and does not come together at this point, but the bowl is clean. Knead on speed 1 for 8-10 minutes or until the gluten has been developed. If you feel your dough is too dry, simply add a few tablespoons of water to moisten. (always pulling the sides clean) if dough starts sticking simply add a little white flour to
