Our friend Johnny makes the best Bloody Marys ever so I thought I would try to recreate the flavor in a burger. It turned out great! Kris thought is was one of the best burgers she has ever had. I agree with Kris! This is a tasty burger. Only bad thing? I was out of vodka so was not able to make a bloody to go with my burger!
So here is the recipe for a ‘Bloody Mary Burger’ (you can experiment with the ingredients to get the flavor to your liking). This is about what I did:
- 1 lb ground beef (I use grass fed)
- 1 T lemon pepper
- 2 t celery salt
- 2 T Worcestershire sauce
- 1 T A1 steak sauce
- 2 tsp Fresh horseradish
- few shakes of Tabasco
Mix all ingredients with the burger in a large bowl. 
Form the patties. I made 3 third pound burgers. Set grill to 350 degrees and grill burgers for about 25 minutes total, turning after the first 10 minutes. I also grilled some jalapeno peppers to add some heat. Top with pepper jack cheese the last 2 minutes of grilling and you are ready to go.
Instead of ketchup to top this burger I made a mayo based sauce:
- 1/2 cup mayo
- 1 tsp celery salt
- 1 tsp pepper
- 1 T Heinz chili sauce
- 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp A1 steak sauce
- 1/8 tsp cayenne pepper
- Zest of one lemon
- Splash of tomato juice
Mix together well and adjust the spices to your taste.
To serve – Top burger with spicy sauce, a pickle and a roasted jalapeno. Enjoy!!
