roasted garlic and swiss burgers

Posted on Thursday, June 26, 2008 at 06:31 AM

  • 1 small head garlic
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • Salt and pepper
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 pounds ground beef
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
  • 4 hamburger buns
  • 4 slices thinly-sliced Swiss cheese
  • Dill pickle slices
  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
  • Slice off the top of the head of garlic (exposing the cloves) and place in the center of a 6" x 6" piece of tin foil.  Drizzle top of garlic with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.  Wrap up garlic tightly and place in oven to roast for 45 minutes.  Then, remove garlic and set aside to cool for another 15 minutes.
  • Once garlic has cooled, squeeze 5 or so cloves into a small bowl and mash the garlic well with a fork.  Add the half cup of mayonnaise and stir well to combine. Cover and store in fridge until ready to use.
  • Preheat an indoor or outdoor grill to high.  In a medium-sized bowl mix burger meat with the Worcestershire sauce.  Gently shape meat into four thick patties and season the outsides with salt and pepper.  Grill about 4-5 minutes on one side and then flip.  Add a piece of cheese to top of each burger and continue grilling until patties are cooked to your liking and cheese has melted.
  • Spread both sides of hamburger buns with mustard and mayonnaise and place a burger on each bun and then top with a few slices of dill pickles and then top with another bun.  Serve immediately with your favorite potato salad
