Description

These Citrus Herb Caprese Burgers combine juicy ground beef and Italian sausage with fresh mozzarella, tomato, and basil for a delightful twist on a classic burger. Perfect for summer grilling!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tablespoons Citrus Herb Seasoning
  • 2 tablespoons hot water
  • 1½ tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 pound 85% lean ground beef
  • ½ pound ground mild Italian sausage
  • 1 (8-ounce) package fresh mozzarella ball, cut into 6 slices
  • 1 large tomato, cut into 6 slices
  • Fresh basil leaves, optional

Instructions

  • Prepare the Grill: Preheat your grill to medium heat.
  • Mix Seasoning: In a large bowl, combine the Citrus Herb Seasoning, hot water, and olive oil. Let it sit for 5 minutes.
  • Combine Meats: Add the ground beef and Italian sausage to the bowl. Mix well and form into 6 patties.
  • Grill Patties: Place the patties on the grill. Grill for 10-12 minutes, turning once, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. In the last 1-2 minutes, top each patty with a slice of fresh mozzarella.
  • Serve: Serve the burgers topped with a slice of tomato. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with fresh basil leaves if desired.

Notes

  • For a lighter option, serve on spinach leaves with Aged Balsamic Vinegar.
