Siciliano Burger with Sundried Tomato Butter
~ Mary ~
Another great recipe for your grill! I adapted a recipe from the cook book and corresponding website Build a Better Burger. You need to be sure to use a good ground beef and don’t go lean – 80/20 is what you’re looking for – you need the extra fat for a juicy burger. I wonder if Kuma’s would make these!?
siciliano burger
Mix together:
2Tbsp Minced Garlic
½ Cup Bread Crumbs
¼ Cup Pine Nuts
1 tsp Cinnamon
1 tsp Italian Seasoning
1 tsp Rosemary
1 tsp Kosher Salt
½ tsp Black Pepper
2# 80/20 Angus Beef
Mix well and divide into 6 equal balls.
Make into patties.
You can cook these several ways: broiler, grill, oven or skillet. Cook over medium heat for 5-7 minutes on each side. Serve topped with Sun Dried Tomato Butter on bun.


This burger sounds tasty. The cinnamon would add a nice touch of exotic.
That looks delicious. I have to try that butter!

Jeez that burger looks good — even for breakfast. Nice combo of flavors — and a great photo!
What means 2#80/20….. please
# is the sign for pound
80/20 is the ratio of meat to fat
so it means: two pounds of ground beef with 80 percent beef and 20 percent fat
you are so punctual !!!
million thank’s & hugs
