Burger Seven: Orgasmic Onion Burger

Burger Number Seven - Orgasmic Onion Burger
Page: 97

Ooooo this burger is GOOD! We got to use the famous Orgasmic Onion Seasoning ( that we use on pretty much everything!) so knew this would be a hit from the get go. 

To make up the burgers, I mixed together the ground beef and the orgasmic onion seasoning and then left to 'rest' for a while in the fridge. 
In the meantime, I made up the [very exciting] Port Wine gravy. We didn't have any port on tap but used some red wine we had kicking around in the kitchen which seemed to do the job. I melted butter in a pan  then added some onion, then some fresh thyme and a bay leaf or two and the wine. I let that simmer down and then added some beef stock ( that I had let boil for ages; Ted asked for demi-glace (?) but fortunately mentioned that this was reduced known as beef stock to normal people)

Then the burgers went onto the hot cast iron pan ( no BBQ sadly.. it was covered in snow) and we et them cook, on both sides, for bout 10 minutes. 

Ted asked for onion rings to finish off the piece but we had run out... so used some Vidalia I found in the fridge and also had to switch the 'onion buns' for half a warmed, french stick. It worked though! We poured the jus over the burgers which gave the bun and the burger superb flavor and was well worth the work. 

I roasted some mini potatoes to finish off our dinner and here it is, the triumphant Orgasmic Onion Burger!
