Instead of pork, you can substitute ground beef chuck or ground turkey in this recipe. Vary cooking times accordingly.
Ingredients
• 1 1/2 pounds ground pork
• 1 small red onion, minced, plus slices for serving
• 3/4 cup store-bought or homemade bbq sauce
• Coarse salt and ground pepper
• Vegetable oil, for grates
• 4 soft onion rolls, split horizontally
Instructions
1) Heat grill to medium-high. In a medium bowl, place pork, minced onion, 1/4 cup bbq sauce, 1 teaspoon coarse salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Mix very gently with a fork to combine, being careful not to overwork meat (which would make burgers dense).
2) Gently form meat into 4 equal size patties, 4 inches in diameter and 1 inch thick. With thumb, make a 1/2-inch-deep indentation in the center of each (this helps keep burgers flat during grilling).
3) Moisten a folded paper towel with oil; grasp with tongs and rub over grates. Season burgers with salt and pepper; grill until cooked throughout, 5 to 8 minutes per side.
4) Serve on onion rolls (toasted on grill, if you like), with sliced onion and remaining bbq sauce.
