Brooklyn Brew Shop’s Ultimate Beer Burger

Every element of this beer burger from The Brooklyn Brew Shop includes a nod to craft beer: stout burger patties, spent grain buns, hop mayo and beer, bacon and onion jam.

Yield: 4

Ingredients

1 lb ground beef
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper, freshly ground
1/4 tsp cayenne
1/4 cup stout or porter
4 slices cheddar cheese
1 tomato, thickly sliced
4 leaves, bibb lettuce
1 cup Beer, Bacon & Onion Jam
1/2 cup Hop Mayo
4 Spent Grain Burger Buns, toasted

Directions

Simply-made or indulgently complicated, a good burger can come in a slew of mouth-watering iterations. But one thing's for sure: It's best served with a cold beer. We've taken our love for the classic combination of burgers and beer to the next level by stacking a stout-spiked patty with some of the most beer-filled and burger-ready recipes around.
Sprinkle ground beef with salt, pepper and cayenne. Form into four loosely packed patties. Using your thumbs create a shallow well in the center of each patty.
Heat your grill or skillet to medium-high. When hot place patties, indent-side up. Pour a couple spoonfuls of beer into each well. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes, flip, and cook for 3 minutes more. Add cheddar and let melt over heat, about 1 minute.
