Grilled Dijon Burgers with Onions
Total time: 25 minutes
Made with hot, spicy Dijon-style mustard and served with grilled sweet onions, these are not your normal burgers! Use more or less mustard if you like... you could even add a drop or 2 of Tabasco...
Ingredients:
- 12oz (360gr) ground beef (mince)
- 2 tbs dried breadcrumbs
- 1 1/2 tbs Dijon-style mustard
- 1 tbs red wine
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 large red or sweet onion

- 2 tbs olive oil
- 2 tbs Dijon mustard
- 2 tbs red wine
- 1 tbs Worcestershire Sauce
Instructions:
- Burgers:
- Mix breadcrumbs, mustard, red wine and garlic powder.

- Oil hinged basket. Place patties in basket and cook on barbecue grill over direct heat for 4 - 5 minutes per side, basting each side with sauce.
- Or sauté in nonstick skillet for same amount of time, basting.
- Onions:
- Slice onion into 1/2" (1.25 cm) thick slices.
- Brush both sides of slices with basting sauce and put on a mesh grill pan (the idea is not to have the slices fall through the grate into the fire....)
