On Monday I received a little press drop from the awesome folks Sedgwick’s Original Old Brown which included a recipe for Sizzling Sedgwick’s burgers.
Now because I’m a horrible cook, I figured… why not share this recipe with you guys and then hopefully somebody will make them and send me an invite… #genius 😉
The recipe involves Sedgwick’s caramelized onions and Sedgwick’s candied bacon and sounds absolutely delish. I mean who doesn’t love bacon and caramelized onions??
So let’s get down to the details:
The Sedgwick’s burger
Serves 8
For the patties
750g beef mince
200g chorizo sausage, finely chopped
10ml smoked paprika
5ml salt and freshly ground black pepper
60ml olive oil
For the Sedgwick’s caramelized onions
60g butter
5 onions, thickly sliced
2.5mg brown sugar
80ml Sedgwick’s Old Brown
For the Sedgwick’s candied bacon
125ml Sedgwick’s Old Brown
60mg brown sugar
250g streaky bacon
And then these are the steps to follow:
1. Combine the beef mince, chorizo and smoked paprika. Season everything with the salt and freshly ground black pepper. Place the mixture in the fridge for 30 minutes.
2. In the meantime start with the onions: heat the butter in a large frying pan over medium-low heat. Add the onions and fry them until they start to caramelize. Season them with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Add the brown sugar and caramelize them for another 5 minutes.
3. Add the Sedgwick’s Old Brown and reduce until the onions becomes sticky. Set the onions aside.
4. For the bacon, preheat the oven to 180°C. Soak the bacon in the Sedgwick’s Old Brown for 30 minutes. Line the bacon on a baking tray, sprinkle the brown sugar over it and bake it in the oven. After 10 minutes, turn the bacon over and return it to the oven for another 5-10 minutes or until it’s caramelized and crispy.
5. For the patties, heat a griddle pan over medium-high heat. Shape the mince into tennis-size balls. Rub each mince ball with the olive oil and grill them for 8 minutes on each side or until it’s done to your liking.
6. Serve the patties on toasted brioche buns with the bacon and onions on top.
Easy peasy (for people who actually know what kitchen appliances are used for of course). Just lemme know when those burgers are ready, OK.
