Enjoy a new twist to your next burger by making your next patties with pork. These curried pork burgers are infused with exotic flavors, bold pork-based burgers made with red onion, garlic, Worcestershire, and curry powder for an extra kick!
Make the curried mayonnaise, by mixing the mayonnaise and curry powder in a small bowl; place it in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
Grill the Burgers and Onions
Light the grill and set up for indirect heat.
In a large bowl using your hands, combine pork, onion, garlic, curry powder, Worcestershire sauce, and crushed red pepper. Mix well, but be careful not to overwork the meat; this will result in tough burgers. When the ingredients are well combined, divide the meat into 4 equal portions; shape into 4 ¾-inch-thick patties; season with salt and pepper, to taste.
In a small bowl, toss the red onion with oil; coat well.
Brush the grate with an oil coated paper towel. Place the patties over the heat. Cover and grill over medium heat for about 8 to 10 minutes, before turning only once.
After about 6 minutes, of grilling the burgers, add red onion to a grill pan, turning once.
After 8 to 10 minutes, flip the burgers.
Continue to grill, covered until done (160 degrees F). Use a thermometer to check for doneness. Take the burgers and onions off the grill and allow the burgers to rest.
Toast the Buns on the Grill
Grill the buns by dividing the tops and bottoms and placing them on the grill 1 to 2 minutes, until toasted.
Build the Burgers
Spread the curried mayonnaise on the toasted buns, top with a burger, shredded cabbage and red onion.
Notes
You should be able to find fresh ground pork at the grocery store. I made a phone call to the butcher for a particular order of fresh ground pork to ensure the utmost freshest meat possible. I highly recommend you have some ground up fresh or grind the meat yourself.Recipe adapted from Better Homes & Gardens Magazine
