Korean Style Burgers Ingredients
- 1 lb. of ground beef
- 3 cloves of garlic (minced)
- ½ tsp. of ginger powder
- 2 tbsp. soy sauce
- ½ tsp. black pepper
- ½ c. honey BBQ sauce
- ½ c. mayonnaise
- 3 tbsp. chili garlic sauce
- 1 c. of chopped scallions
- 3 sesame seed hamburger buns

How to Make Korean Style Burgers
- Line a tray or plate with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, and pepper. Mix gently with your hands, then divide into 3 equal patties about 1 inch thick. Press a shallow indentation into the center of each patty with the back of a spoon to help them cook evenly.
- Heat the vegetable oil (if using) in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the burgers for 2–4 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired doneness.
- Transfer the burgers to the prepared tray and brush both sides with the honey BBQ sauce.
- In a small bowl, stir together the mayonnaise, chili sauce, and a sprinkle of sliced scallions. Spread the sauce on the tops and bottoms of the buns.
- Place each burger on the bottom bun, top with the remaining scallions, add the top bun, and serve immediately.

Pro Tips For Making This Recipe
- Press a small indentation into each patty to help it cook evenly.
- Add extra chili garlic sauce or red pepper flakes for more heat.
- Fire up the grill for an extra smoky flavor.
- Brioche, potato, or sesame seed buns all work well.
- Don't skip the chili-garlic mayo; it brings every bite together.
