Barbecue Grilled Hamburger Recipes

There's loads of barbecue grilled hamburger recipes using different meats with a variety of tasty ingredients and everybody loves a burger, right?

I used to think that anyone who produced sausages and burgers at a barbecue was completely lacking in imagination but now that I've started to make my own burgers, it's time to revise that opinion.

A burger is so easy to make there's absolutely no excuse for not making your own, after all, they're cheaper too. What's the difference between going down the supermarket and picking up a pack of ground meat rather than a pre-formed hamburger? Nothing, other than the quality of the meat.

Because that's all there is to a basic burger, just add salt and pepper and form it into that distinctive shape. At least doing it this way, you know exactly what you're eating. If you knew what parts of the animal go into preformed burgers.........well it would put you off eating one ever again!

You can buy burger shaping tools and these do make your burgers nicely rounded but you really don't need to be that precise. I'm not, because it doesn't make a jot of difference to the flavor.

Once you've made the basic hamburger, the world's your oyster. Play around with different spices what about different meats? To set you off, here are some of my favorite recipes for barbecue grilled hamburger.
