Gourmet Sliders with Fig Jam and Herb Cheese Spread. Photo by Juliana Goodwin.
Ingredients
1 pound ground chuck
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
6 slider buns
6 tablespoons fig jam, divided
6 tablespoons spreadable herb cheese, divided
3 tablespoons real bacon pieces or 3 cooked bacon slices cut in half, divided
Fried onions (like the ones for green bean casserole)
Directions
Heat grill to medium-high, about 425 degrees.
In a large bowl, mix together chuck, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, salt pepper and garlic powder. Form into six patties, making them as flat as possible because they will rise as they cook.
When the grill is hot, place patties directly over fire and close lid. Grill for 5 minutes on first side and 4-5 on the next. Press them down once only as you flip them. Toast buns, if desired.
Spread 1 tablespoon of fig jam on bottom of each bun and 1 tablespoon of herb cheese on top. Add bacon atop jam. Add burgers, and top each with fried onions. Serve.
