For the Sriracha Mayo:
- 1 cup good quality mayo
- 4 teaspoons sriracha sauce (less if you don't want it too spicy)
For the toppings:
- lettuce if desired
- cheese if desired
- ketchup if desired
- mustard if desired
- chopped onions if desired
- 1 package burger buns
For the burgers:
Place ground beef in a mixing bowl.
Cut off crust of bread. Put in a flat bottomed bowl and pour olive oil over top. Let it soak in then flip over and let other side soak as well.
Shred the bread, I tossed mine in the food processor, and add it to the meat along with all your spices and eggs.
Mix this all together by hand, or with a fork, or on low speed in a stand mixer.
Preheat your grill.
Place on grill and cook for about 15 to 20 minutes. Brushing them with olive oil is a huge Shiksa tip and I am glad I did it. Also don't keep flipping them over and over. Just let them cook all the way on one side then flip. Over flipping burgers leads to broken burgers.
Note- you can also cook these in a pan with veggie oil.
