Triple Seared Whiskey Burger

Servings:

This triple-seared whiskey burger uses the technique from my Japanese-style triple seared steak, and produces the most extraordinarily delicious, juicy burger, with a whiskey-soy glazed exterior.

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. 1 Wet your hands, and form 2 (8-ounce) burgers; place on a plate, cover, and refrigerate until ready to grill. For this process, cold meat works best.
  2. 2 Before starting the triple-searing process, build a very hot hardwood charcoal fire. Oak, mesquite or hickory are great choices. The coals should be glowing red, and radiating extreme heat before the meat hits the grill.
  3. 3 Rub burgers all over with oil. Coat with sea salt until entire surface area is completely covered.
  4. 4 Pour whiskey into a shallow bowl; set aside.
  5. 5 Place burgers on hottest spot on the grill, and sear both sides, 2 minutes per side.
  6. 6 Transfer burgers into bowl of whiskey, and turn constantly for at least 1 minute. Most of the salt will rinse off.
  7. 7 Place burgers back onto the hottest spot on the grill, and sear both sides again, 2 minutes per side. You can baste steak with a small amount of whiskey while searing.
  8. 8 Add soy sauce to another shallow bowl. Add burgers to the bowl, and turn constantly for at least 1 minute.
  9. 9 Return burgers to the hottest spot on the grill for the 3rd and final sear. Grill each side until desired doneness is reached, about 2 minutes. For a rosy-pink (medium-rare) inside, remove when an instant-read thermometer inserted near the center reads 125 to 130 F (52 to 54 degrees C).
