Total Time: 1 hr 20 mins Preparation Time: 45 mins Cook Time: 35 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 8
• 2 lbs lean ground beef (or as much as you want)
• 1 onion, finely chopped
• 2 mushrooms, finely chopped
• 3 garlic cloves, finely crushed and chopped
• 1 tablespoon fresh black pepper
• 1 tablespoon dried chili pepper flakes
• 1 teaspoon sea salt
• 2 tablespoons pimento paste (portuguese pimenta)
• 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
• 1 tablespoon romano cheese
• 3 tablespoons fresh parsley, finely chopped
• 1 egg
• 4 tablespoons instant oatmeal or 4 tablespoons breadcrumbs

Recipe

• 1 mix all ingredients into beef thoroughly. ensure that the mixture is of a even texture of spices and ingredients.
• 2 let stand in fridge for about 20mins.
• 3 have a cold drink and light the bar-b-q.
• 4 create balls of meat (about the size of a grapefruit) and work very well. *you'll know it's worked when your fingers pick up fat from the beef*.
• 5 work into a flattened patty, creating a dimple in the center of the patty so that cooking will not create a 'ball' of beef.
• 6 cook until juices run clear. if you like a charred taste, cook on higher heat with lid closed. for a regular finish, cook on medium/high with lid open.
• 7 rotate burgers when meat naturally releases from grill.
• 8 flip once, repeat rotate when meat releases from grill.
• 9 enjoy with sauteed - mushrooms, red peppers and onions - and of course, a cold beer.
