Welcome to our culinary adventure where we'll explore the art of crafting mouth-watering beef and pork burgers. In this video, we'll take you through the process of creating these delectable treats, combining the rich flavors of beef and pork with a medley of carefully selected ingredients. So, let's dive in and uncover the secrets behind these juicy, flavorful burgers!
Our first step is to gather all the necessary ingredients to create these succulent beef and pork burgers.
• 1 pound ground beef
• 0.75 pound ground pork
• 1  onion, finely chopped
• 12 button mushrooms finely chopped (Fry the onions and mushrooms first to release the oils and flavors)
• ½ cup breadcrumbs ( I sometimes use smoky bacon flavor crackers)
• 1 egg
• ½ tsp Worcestershire sauce
• a couple of drops of Soy sauce
• 1tbsp tomato puree
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Your favorite burger buns
• Toppings and condiments of your choice
To create the perfect burger, we'll need ground beef and ground pork. Additionally, finely chopped onions, chopped mushrooms, breadcrumbs, an egg, and a dash of salt and pepper, some tomato puree and a drop or two of Worcestershire sauce, will add depth to the flavors. Don't forget to have your favorite burger buns and an array of toppings and condiments on hand to customize your creation!
Now, let's move on to the second step: mixing the ingredients.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef and ground pork.
Next, add the finely chopped onions and mushrooms
Sprinkle the breadcrumbs over the mixture.
Crack the egg and add it to the bowl.
Finally, season with salt and pepper to taste.
Now, using clean hands, gently mix all the ingredients together until well combined.
Take care not to overmix, as it can result in a dense patty. We want our burgers to be tender and juicy!
Great job! We're now ready for the next step: shaping the patties. Divide the mixture into equal portions, depending on the desired size of your burgers.
Roll each portion into a ball, then flatten it with a burger press. (use a flat plate if you don’t have a burger press)
Ensure that the patties are evenly shaped and have a thickness of about ¾ to 1 inch.
Congratulations! You've successfully completed the initial steps of creating our beef and pork burgers. In the next part, where we'll guide you through the cooking process to achieve that perfect sear and succulent interior. Get ready to savor the taste of these sensational burgers!
In a pan, heat some oil to medium heat.
Cook the burgers for about 6 minutes each side or to your personal preference.
Make a depression in each burger with your thumb to help keep their shape during cooking.

Top with cheese, bacon, tomato, pickles or whatever is your favorite burger topping.
Enjoy.
