Ingredients

1 pound ground sirloin
1 pound ground pork
2 teaspoons paprika
2 cloves garlic, grated or minced
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, eyeball it
Handful fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 green bell pepper, seeded and chopped
3 tablespoons cider vinegar
2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
1 cup tomato sauce
1 cup frozen lima beans
1 cup frozen corn
1 cup chopped frozen okra
1/2 cup chopped pickled green beans plus 1 tablespoon pickling juice
1 tablespoon hot sauce
2 tablespoons freshly chopped thyme leaves, from about 5 to 6 sprigs
2 to 3 scallions, chopped
4 sandwich-sized English muffins, split and buttered

Directions

Mix the meat with paprika, garlic, Worcestershire, parsley, salt and pepper. Heat a large skillet over medium high heat with a tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, a turn of the pan. Form 4 large patties and make a indentation in the center of each burger to counteract the burger bulge that happens as the meat cooks. Cook burgers 6 minutes on each side, turning once.

Heat a small pot over medium heat with 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, eyeball it. Add onions and peppers, cook 8 to 10 minutes then add salt, pepper, vinegar and brown sugar. Stir 1 minute, add tomato sauce and reduce heat to low. Simmer 5 minutes.

Heat a medium skillet over medium high heat. Add 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, a turn of the pan. Add limas, corn, okra, pickled beans, hot sauce, thyme, salt and pepper and cook to heat through 5 to 6 minutes. Toss in scallions and turn off heat.

Serve burgers on buttered toasted muffins with pepper and onion topping. Serve succotash alongside.

Awesome!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

The sauce for the burgers was really good and using english muffins instead of regular burger buns practically made the... meal. My only complaint was the ground pork- it overwhelmed the sirloin flavor so I would just use sirloin next time. Succotash was unbelievable- the green beans (although expensive) made the meal. Totally worth it.Read more

A for Effort
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Brought out some Kentucky tradition, but not particularly Derby food tradition. For that, you need to get into some cheese... and/or garlic grits, country ham and beaten biscuits, Derby Pie, corn pudding, spoon bread, various casseroles with asparagus and eggplant, Kentucky jam cake, bourbon balls . Kentucky burgoo is centered in Western Kentucky and has barbecued meats, mainly barbecued mutton, which is distinctive to that area. Louisville and Lexington, who do the mainline Derby to-dos, get more into the previously mentioned fare. How about taking on the Hot Brown, originated by the Brown Hotel in Louisville, Henry Bain sauce originated by a Louisville head waiter at a private club in 1881, to be served with game, still served at this club today with venison. And there's Eggs Derby, Mint Julep Kisses, Triple Crown Tarts ... :-) But you did a good mix of flavors. Thanks. Read more

Burgoo Burgers
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

Made this for dinner and it was really yummy. Nothing overly special about the burgers (granted, I did not use pork) but the... sauce was quite yummy. I did not make the succotash. If you like this recipe you really need to try Rachael's Sloppy Joes, there are alot of flavor similarities! Thanks!Read more

Burgers only
Rated: 3 stars out of 5

I only made the burgers and they were just ok. The meat was dry and the sauce was so-so. There are so many good burger... recipes out there. I would skip this one.Read more
