Ingredients for Aussie Beef Burgers

  • 1 lb ground beef (80/20 blend recommended)
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped onion
  • 1/2 cup grated carrot
  • 1/4 cup breadcrumbs
  • Eggs
  • Garlic
  • Worcestershire Sauce

How to Make Aussie Beef Burgers

  1. In a large bowl, thoroughly combine 1 lb ground beef, 1/2 cup finely chopped onion, 1/2 cup grated carrot, 1 large egg, 1/4 cup breadcrumbs, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Gently mix until just combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.
  2. Refrigerate the mixture for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the burgers to firm up.
  3. Divide the beef mixture into 4 equal portions. Shape each portion into a patty about 3/4 inch thick, slightly wider than your bun to prevent shrinkage during cooking.
  4. Preheat your barbecue or grill to medium-high heat. Cook the burgers for 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C). For a crispier exterior, increase the heat during the last minute of cooking. Use a spatula to carefully flip the burgers to prevent breaking.
  5. Serve immediately on toasted buns with your favorite toppings. For added heat, add chili sauce or chopped fresh chili peppers.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
