Barbecue Hamburger Recipe
My BBQ Burger Recipe
With summer fast approaching, the outdoor grill takes center stage. What could be a better way to celebrate the outdoors than with an old fashioned barbecue. Don't forget the burgers!
Calling a hamburger "barbecued" assumes a grill. However, if we're talking about taste, it might be more accurate to include some barbecue sauce as an element in it's cooking.
Let's go with both with this great barbecue hamburger recipe.
note: Make sure you're working with a clean grill. Nothing ruins a good time quite like bacteria. ;-)
Ingredients:
- 1 cup soft bread crumbs
- 1/2 cup of milk
- 1 lb. lean ground beef
- 1/2 cup chopped onion
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 cup homemade barbecue sauce (recipe for this down below)
Moisten the bread crumbs with the milk. Add ground beef, onion, and seasonings. Mix it all together. Shape the mixture into large patties (about 4). Cook the patties on one side on the grill. Flip the patty when ready. Pour barbecue sauce over patties; cover and cook until done. That's it!

Homemade Barbecue Sauce
Ingredients:
- 1 1/4 cup ketchup
- 1 cup water
- 1/4 cup dark brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons molasses
- 1/3 cup cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon onion powder
- 1 tablespoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon celery salt
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon allspice
Mix all of the ingredients in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly. After 5 minutes, reduce the heat to a simmer as the sauce thickens. It couldn't be any easier!
This sauce is more in the Kansas City tradition. For a little more spicy-ness, double the black pepper, or just a pinch of cayenne for some burn without altering the taste. You'll really enjoy this great combination of sweet and heat!
