How To Make ring o fire burger
-
Step 1Slice two onions into 1/8 inch thick slices. Place into a large ziplock and pour Frank's Hots Sauce in the bag. Marinate for 2 hours. -
Step 2MAYO BURGER TOPPING: In blender combine mayo, basil, tarragon leaves, zest of one lime, juice of lime, pinch of salt & pepper and a dash of hot sauce. Blend until well combined. Put in the fridge while you assemble the rest of the burger.
-
Step 3CARAMELIZED ONIONS: To a pan add 1/2 cup diced onion, a touch of oil and a little salt and pepper. Cook over low heat until nice and brown (careful not to let it burn.). This takes about 30 minutes. Let cool.
-
Step 4BURGERS: Combine skirt steak, carmelized onions, bacon, horseradish cheese, jalapeno with some salt and pepper. vShape into 6-8 patties, then set them aside while you work on the onion rings.
-
Step 5FRIED ONION RINGS: Heat oil to about 365 degrees. Drain raw onion rings into a colander to remove excess liquid. Take a handful of onion rings and dredge in flour (shaking off excess flour.)
-
Step 6Fry onions in oil until golden brown. Drain on paper towel, then repeat with remaining onion rings. (Can be kept warm in a low-temp oven.)
-
Step 7Grill Burgers to desired doneness. Serve on a bakery-style bun topped with the herbed mayo and your crispy, spicy onion rings. Add lettuce, pickle, tomatoes and more sliced jalapeno if you wish! (NOTE: If you can't find skirt steak or it isn't on sale, you can most certainly use a ground chuck or a lean ground sirloin. The skirt steak is delicious.)
