Minced Beef and Veggie BBQ Patties
Savor the essence of summer grilling with our Minced Beef and Veggie BBQ Patties. Inspired by smoky backyard barbecues with a hint of nutritious veggies, these patties encapsulate the joy of shared meals and good company.
Ingredients
500 grams ground beef (minced beef) - recommend grass-fed for richer flavor
1 cup zucchini - grated and excess moisture removed
½ cup carrot - grated
1 small onion - finely chopped
2 cloves garlic - minced
¼ cup breadcrumbs - gluten-free for dietary adaptation
1 large egg - beaten
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon salt - adjust to taste
½ teaspoon ground black pepper - freshly ground
2 tablespoons olive oil - for grilling
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 500 grams of minced beef, 1 cup of grated zucchini, 1/2 cup of grated carrot, finely chopped onion, and minced garlic. Mix thoroughly to integrate the vegetables with the beef.
- Add 1/4 cup of bread crumbs and a beaten egg to bind the mixture. Stir in 1 tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce, salt, and freshly ground black pepper until well blended.
- Shape the mixture into four equal-sized patties, ensuring they are compact to prevent crumbling during grilling.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (around 190°C/375°F). Brush the grill grates with 2 tablespoons of olive oil to prevent sticking.
- Grill the patties for approximately 6-7 minutes per side, or until they achieve a delicious char and are cooked through—juices should run clear, and the internal temperature should reach 71°C/160°F.
Notes
For added moisture, consider incorporating a tablespoon of milk into the patty mixture. For a spicy twist, add a dash of chili powder or smoked paprika.
