If you want to amp up your burger game, try your hand at this juicy patty recipe, which uses shredded beef from leftover stew to enhance flavour and keep the burger moist.
.
Burgers
  • 2 lb(s) of ground beef
  • 1 onion, minced
  • 1 cup of shredded beef from leftover beef stew or canned beef stew, optional
  • 2 Tbsp of dried oregano
  • Salt and pepper
  • 6 oz of blue cheese, crumbled
  • 6 large buns, sliced in half
Potatoes
  • 6 baking potatoes
  • 6 Tbsp of extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 Tbsp of whole fennel seeds
  • Salt and pepper
To Make

Burgers
1. Preheat barbecue grill on high for 15 minutes. A clean hot grill will lessen the chances that the burgers will stick. Meanwhile place the beef, onion, stew meat and oregano in a large bowl then season with salt and pepper. Mix well then form into 6 large patties.

2. Grill for 8 minutes per side, until well done. Sprinkle cheese onto patties during last 2 minutes of cooking to melt. Toast the buns on the grill until golden brown. Top with lettuce and tomato and dig in.

Potatoes
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Place potatoes on a baking tray and bake for 45 to 60 minutes, until tender.

2. Turn oven up to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Push down on the baked potatoes with a potato masher or small plate so that they crack open and are flattened, doubling in diameter. Drizzle liberally with olive oil and sprinkle with fennel seeds and salt and pepper. Bake until golden and crisp about 15 to 20 minutes more.
