Manly burgers
Men'sHealth calls them manly burgers but I happen to think women can enjoy them just the same. Heck, feed them to your kids too. These are not your typical burgers, dripping in fat and grease and loaded with condiments galore. Nope, they're they the Big Kahuna Recovery Burger, the Heart-healthy Burger, the Fat-burning Burger, and the Antioxidant Burger. With the the power to build and repair muscle, prime that heart of yours, pump up your metabolism, and fight cancer too, these selections are worth checking out. Here they are.
Before you prepare these healthy burgers, here are three rules for cooking perfection.
1. Start with a hunk of chuck or brisket and have your butcher grind it fresh. A medium grind will make for a juicy, moist burger.
2. Take your meat out of the fridge an hour before cooking. Keeping it close to room temperature helps it to cook evenly. Rub with olive oil, salt, and pepper if you wish and then cook using high heat. Make sure you hear a sizzle with your meat hits the grill. Cook for three to four minutes on each side and add cheese at the end. Your burger should feel soft and springy. Let it rest for a few minutes before eating so the juices redistribute.
3. Add out-there items to your burger, like mango, grilled asparagus, zucchini, and grilled shrimp.
