VARIATION ON A BUN

VARIATION ON A BUN

Beard acknowledges the hamburger as the all-American favorite, but provides different takes on the traditional burger. This one is Italianate.

2 pounds ground sirloin
Salt, pepper
1 tablespoon each oil and butter
1/2 cup pine nuts
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
4 wheat buns

Mix beef, salt, and pepper to taste.
Add in pine nuts and garlic, mixing well.

Form into patties and sauté over fairly high heat about four minutes per side; reduce heat and continue cooking until done, about four more minutes per side for medium.

Beard suggested serving them on roasted eggplant with tomatoes.
