Husk Cheeseburger - Page 131

Holy F**king, S**t-b**ling, Wonder-Ch***t!  That's F**king Awesome!

The cheeseburger at Husk is amazing, and the home version is just as good, made maybe better by being able to eat it SECONDS after it's cooked!

I have to go to Germany so will provide details later...

We're back!!!
 And, as a bonus, we popped into Husk for lunch and tried the REAL THING!

It was close.  The burger we made at home was obviously a couple minutes fresher than the one in the restaurant, and, for some reason, ours were quite a bit more greasy (you say that like it's a BAD thing...)

The best part of making the burgers was the extraordinary amount of smoke you get when cooking them.  Ox is definitely considering an industrial vent hood for his new home.  I have to say that from the moment the burgers hit the cast iron, everyone in the room was drooling uncontrollably.  The burgers were barely assembled before we were taking bites.  They are totally worth the effort!

I do have to say that the amount of special sauce the recipe makes is way out of proportion to the number of burgers.  I now have a giant jar of special sauce, and nothing to use it on...except MORE BURGERS!  I have to go buy more meat.

Here's the bad picture of the burger from the restaurant for comparison.  Only had my phone so it's a bit over yellow.  The burger was outstanding!




Update:  Used the leftover frozen meat to do the burgers again.  Just as good after being frozen.  Also made burritos with the meat.  I don't think I'm ever buying ground hamburger again.

Update 2/1/15: Made the recipe a second time, using leftover sauce from the original time.  This time tried the grill but couldn't get it hot enough to make them as awesome as the last time.  Still delicious!
