Hamburgers Au Poivre

Hamburgers Au Poivre


1. Mix meat and salt.

2. Shape mixture into 4 patties, each about 3/4 of an inch thick.

3. Press pepper into both sides of the patties.

4. Cook the patties in a large skillet ( I use cast iron)over medium-high heat, turning once, until the desired doneness is reached, about 8 minutes.

5. Drain off the fat.

6. Sprinkle the cognac over the patties, immediately ignite, if desired; THIS STEP IS FROM THE ORIGINAL RECIPE, I LEFT IT BECAUSE I THOUGHT IT WAS COOL, I did NOT ignite my burger and it was delicious ;).

7. Remove patties to a warm platter.

8. Stir the wine into the drippings in the skillet.

9. Heat just to boiling, stirring constantly.

10. Whisk butter, small pieces at a time, into the sauce.

11. Serve sauce over the patties.
