Brisket Burger by Tyler Florence modified

  • Number of Servings: 4
Ingredients
1 pounds beef brisket, ground, 90% lean meat / 10% fatKosher salt and freshly ground black pepper4 thin slices Swiss cheese (NOT included in Nutritional Info)4 hamburger buns split (I used flat Pepperidge Farm Soft 100% Whole Wheat Deli Flats thin rolls)
Directions
1. Preheat a large cast-iron skillet to medium hot. Take a few paper towels and fold them several times to make a thick square. Blot a small amount of oil on the paper towel and carefully and quickly wipe the hot skillet to make a nonstick surface.
2. Season the ground meat in a bowl with salt and pepper. Give it about 3 turns in the bowl with your hands or a big spoon. Shape the brisket into 4 patties.
3. When the skillet is hot, put the burgers on the skillet and cook 4 minutes on the first side and 5 for the second side for rare; 7 minutes per side for medium, adding the cheese during the final minute or two to melt. Remove the burgers to a plate.
4. Rub the skillet with the folded paper towel again to clean it. Then toast the buns cut side down for about 1 minute, just to mark them.
5. Serve the hamburgers in the buns with the accompaniments as desired
