As you can see, my family has had a Burger Cook Off every summer for the past 10 years, with a few exceptions. You can see our Island Burgers here and our Chicken Chorizo Burger with Avocado Mayo. We have had some exceptional burgers so to take it up another level was baffling us, until we learned about marinating the meat ahead of time.
What a simple concept but oh, what a difference it makes! The meat retains its juiciness and is packed full of flavor. Patience is the key, so make the burgers the day before, and marinate them overnight for the best success. Have you marinated your burgers before?
