Char the corn after cooking the burgers in the same pan to infuse it with the rich flavors of the burger juices.
Feel free to char the corn more heavily if you prefer a smokier taste.
FAQS
Can I use pre-ground meat instead of grinding it myself?
Yes, you can use pre-ground sirloin and pork if you prefer. However, grinding the meat yourself allows for better control over texture and freshness.
What is shoepeg corn, and can I substitute it?
Shoepeg corn is a sweeter variety of corn with small kernels. You can substitute it with regular canned corn if shoepeg corn is unavailable.
Can I make the blue cheese slaw ahead of time?
Yes, the blue cheese slaw can be made ahead and stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
What can I use instead of Moore's Marinade?
You can substitute Moore's Marinade with any similar marinade or a mix of soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and a touch of vinegar.
Can I grill the burgers instead of pan-frying them?
Absolutely! Grilling the burgers will add a smoky flavor and works perfectly for this recipe.
