PANCETTA CHEESEBURGERS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place pancetta on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake, flipping the slices halfway through, until crisp, about 15 minutes. Drain on paper towels.
• Meanwhile, using your hands, combine ground chuck, salt, chili powder, and paprika in a bowl, and season with pepper. Shape into 4 patties (about 4 inches in diameter).
• Preheat grill to medium. (If you are using a charcoal grill, coals are ready when you can hold your hand 5 inches above grill for just 5 to 6 seconds.) Grill burgers 4 to 5 minutes. Flip burgers, and top with cheese. Grill 3 to 4 minutes more for medium-rare. Remove, and let rest 5 minutes. Top burgers with pancetta, and serve on buns.

DOUBLE CHEESEBURGERS WITH CRISP PANCETTA AND SPECIAL SAUCE

Steps:

• For the sauce: Stir together the ketchup, mayonnaise, mustard and steak sauce in a medium bowl, and set aside.
• For the fried pickles: Add the breadcrumbs, onion powder, paprika, cayenne and salt to a large re-sealable bag, and shake to combine.
• Add the pickle chips to the bag, shake to coat. Remove them from the bag and spread on a baking sheet.
• Heat a cast-iron skillet with 1 inch of oil to 350 degrees F.
• Add the pickle chips to the skillet in batches and fry for about 30 seconds per side or until golden brown.
• Remove the pickle chips to a paper-towel-lined baking sheet and reserve.
• For the cheeseburgers: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F, and prepare a grill for medium-high heat. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Arrange the pancetta on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Bake the pancetta until golden brown and crisp, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate to drain.
• Add 2 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper to the beef in a medium bowl and mix well with your hands. Press the meat in one thin layer on a 18-by-13-inch rimmed baking sheet.
• Use a knife or pizza cutter to divide the meat into 12 square patties.
• Grill the patties on one side until halfway cooked, about 3 minutes.
• Flip the patties, top with a slice of cheese and continue cooking until cooked through and the cheese begins to melt, 1 to 2 minutes more.
• Build each burger in a split bun as follows: patty, schmear of special sauce, slice of pancetta, 2 pickles and repeat. Top with the tomato and lettuce.

ULTIMATE SUMMER PLT BURGER

Steps:

• For the herb mayo: Combine the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, fresh lemon juice, tarragon, chives and parsley in a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Stir until well blended.
• For the burgers: Divide the ground beef into four equal portions. Gently form each portion into patties 1 to 1 1/2 inches thick and 3 to 4 inches in diameter. Do not over work or tightly pack the meat or the burgers will not be tender. Place on a plate or sheet tray and bring to room temperature.
• Heat a large saute pan over medium heat. Take the slices of pancetta and place them in the pan. Begin to render the pancetta on both sides, 3 to 4 minutes, rotating the pancetta until golden brown and crispy. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels and let cool. Reserve the pancetta fat in the pan and use as a fat substitute instead of butter to toast the buns in.
• Brush a griddle with the pancetta fat and preheat to medium-high heat.
• Sprinkle the burgers on each side with salt and pepper. Place the burgers on the brushed and heated griddle and cook 4 to 5 minutes each side for medium rare.
• Brush the buns with pancetta fat and toast on the griddle until golden brown.
• When the burgers are almost finished, top each with 2 slices of the cheese and cook for 2 to 4 minutes. Take the burgers off the griddle and let rest.
• Mix the tomato slices with the vinegar and season with salt and pepper.
• Spread the herbed mayonnaise on the buns. Top with lettuce, tomato, a burger and a piece of pancetta.
