Southern & Tipsy Brisket Peach Burgers

Ingredients

• 1Poundof ground chuck
• 1Poundground brisket
• Kosher salt & pepper, outside of patties
• 6 slices Pepper jack cheese
• 2 Tablespoons mayonnaise
• 6 Brioche rolls
• Grilled Tequila Peach Slaw:
• 4-5 ripe peaches, pitted and sliced
• 1/2 stick butter, melted
• 1 Cup pineapple juice
• 1/2 Cup honey
• 1/4 Cup tequila anejo
• 1/2 head of cabbage, shredded
• 1/4 Cup red onion, diced
• 1 jalapeno, seeded, thinly sliced
• 1/4 Cup fresh cilantro leaves
• 1 Tablespoon apple cider vinegar
• Salt & pepper, to taste

Instructions

• Preheat the grill.
• Slice up and skewer the peaches before brushing the melted butter over top.
• In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the pineapple juice, tequila and the honey.
• Whisk together till smooth.
• Bring to a simmer and let cook till slightly thickened, about 15 minutes and then remove from heat.
• Grill your skewered peaches for just a few minutes.
• Remove, chop up and add to the pineapple/tequila/honey syrup, gently toss.
• Cover and let sit for about 10 minutes.
• While the peaches are soaking, prep the veggies for the slaw. Combine all the ingredients for the slaw together, including the soaked peaches.
• Toss, cover and refridgerate while you get the burgers ready.
• Prepare your meat into 1/3Poundpatties (6 all together) and press your thumb slightly in the middle of each patty to prevent puffing up while grilling.
• Sprinkle the outside liberally with kosher salt and pepper.
• Now with the grill ready to go once again, add the beef/brisket patties and cook till desired doneness. *I prefer mine cooked about 5 minutes on the first side and then 3 minutes on the other, flip just once please ;).
• Once you’ve flipped your burger, add the pepperjack cheese to each patty.
• Cheese NEEDS to be melty-good here folks!
• *I also like to split my brioche buns, lightly spread mayonnaise on each cut side and place on the grill for a minute or two.
• The mayo will caramelize over the flame leading to a nice crunch and less soggy burger!
• Serve warm, with a big scoop of the peach slaw over top!
• Bun, burger, slaw, bun!
• Delish!
