Meat Eater’s Asian-British Burgers
Want some good old fashioned tasty burgers with a twist? If you think making your own burgers from scratch is hard, then this recipe will show you how simple it really is. They’ve been a big it every time I make these. They’re a little spicy, with a lot of different flavors mixed in. Hope you like them too.
The name of the recipe may sound confusing, so let me explain. First a disclaimer, I am not British. I am a Filipino. The British part comes from the fact that it is a version of a burger recipe that a British friend of mine gave me. I modified it to suit my Asian palette. In various places in the internet, I use the handle meat eater. Thus I claimed it as mine.
The ingredients (feel free to adjust according to your taste):
- 800 grams ground beef
- 4 tablespoons bread crumbs
- 3 1/2 tablespoons worcestershire sauce (hope I spelled that right)
- 1 1/2 tablespoons of soy sauce
- 1/2 large onion chopped
- 1/2 tablespoon of ground black pepper
- 1/2 tablespoon ground cayenne pepper
- 1/2 tablespoon chopped chinese celery (optional)
- 5 strips of bacon sliced into small pieces
- cooking oil for frying
- 4 hamburger buns
- Making the patties is very easy. Just combine the beef, bread crumbs, onions, bacon and the chinese celery in a bowl. Do this until the ingredients are thoroughly mixed.
- Season the mixture with soy sauce, worcestershire sauce, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. You may add some salt if you like. Again, mix everything thoroughly.
- Heat pan with oil for frying. Divide the burger mixture into 4 patties. You may make more patties if you want them smaller.
- Fry the burgers, one side at a time until desired doneness. Drain oil from patties and put in the hamburger buns. You may put in anything you want with it, like your choice of vegetables and cheese.
I often serve these with potato fries cooked in the same fat as the burgers (the more to clog your arteries with). I also sometimes replace the cayenne with tabasco pepper sauce, they’re really good.
Enjoy!

Sounds quite tasty!
