Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Bump your burger game up a notch or two or three with these creative, flavour-packed, juicy-good recipes.

Burgers are the ultimate one-plate meal, especially when they are topped with delectable things like guacamole, Szechuan chili crisp, homemade ketchup, onion rings, caramelised onions, a punchy Southern-style or Asian slaw, or fried heirloom tomatoes. Those are just a few of the ideas in this colourful volume that is guaranteed to get you and your family out of the old patty-on-a-bun burger rut and into a delicious new world of gourmetβ€”but easy-to-fixβ€”burgers.

Quick and Easy Burger Cookbook fearlessly incorporates new techniques, inspirations, and ingredients to take the burger to the next level, whether it's the Meatloaf Burger on Pretzel Bread with Cabernet Mustard or the Island Creek Burger with Oysters and homemade cocktail sauce. The recipes include:

  • Adventurous burgers featuring global flavours, from Mexican to Korean
  • Innovative new spins on the classic down-home beef burger
  • Health-conscious burgers made with lower-fat proteins such as turkey and salmon

You'll learn the art of freshly grinding meatsβ€”from beef to lamb to goatβ€”for the ultimate juicy burger as well as various cooking methods such as smoking, grilling, griddling, and sous vide that impart distinctive flavour. Most recipes can be made on an outdoor griddle or gas or charcoal grill, or indoors on a cast-iron or nonstick skillet.

Altogether, it's a lifetime's worth of exciting new ways to make the best burgers imaginable.
