I’m sharing a delicious gourmet burger recipe perfect for a backyard barbecue, Bourbon Glazed Brie Burgers with Truffle Mayo!
What Did I Use To Make The Burgers?
These burgers were made on the Calphalon Premier™ Hard-Anodized Nonstick 11-Inch Square Grill Pan, is the perfect Summer recipe! The Calphalon Premier Grill Pan has a durable, 3-layer nonstick interior and is tough enough to withstand metal utensils and everyday use. The hard-anodized exterior is dishwasher-safe for easy cleanup.
What Is In The Burger?
Prime beef burger, grilled to medium, glazed with a bourbon sauce, topped with melted Brie cheese, fresh arugula, sliced shallots with a truffle Mayo on a toasted brioche bun. Does is get any better than this???
How Do You Make This Bourbon Glazed Brie Burger with Truffle Mayo?
Start with making the sauces. For the truffle Mayo, I used jarred mayonnaise, truffle oil and black truffle spread. The black truffle spread may be difficult to find. Most specialty stores have it. If you can get it, just add a little extra truffle oil.
For the bourbon glaze, I used both honey and brown sugar. If you don’t want your sauce to be on the sweet side, you can Omit one. But, it really is delicious with both. Add all of the ingredients and cook over medium heat until it starts to bubble.
What Type of Beef Is Best For The Burgers?
For the burgers, I used an 80/20 mix of ground chuck. 80/20 means 80% lean and 20% fat. This ratio makes a very juicy burger. You can also use an 85/15 or 90/10 mix, but it will be less juicy.
How To Add The Bourbon Glaze:
Shape the ground meat into four patties. Cook the burgers in the Calphalon Premier Grill Pan on one side, then turn over and brush the other side with the glaze. I love to add the glaze as the burgers are cooking so the glaze cooks into the meat. Top with Brie cheese. Let the cheese melt by covering the pan with a top or placing the patties under a broiler for a few seconds. Either way will melt the cheese.
Putting it All Together:
Toast each side of the brioche buns. Add a burger patty to each bottom bun. Add bacon, sliced shallots or red onions. Whichever you prefer. Then add a handful of arugula.
Spread truffle Mayo on the bottom side of each top bun. Add to the burgers and serve!
