Authentic Cajun Hamburgers

• 2 1/2 lbs ground beef
• 1/2 lb pork sausage (homemade)
• 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1 tablespoon steak sauce (optional)
• 2 tablespoons catsup (or BBQ sauce)
• 3 -4 dashes louisiana hot sauce
• 3 -4 drops liquid crab boil concentrate
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 2 teaspoons creole seasoning
• 1 medium onion (minced)
• 1/2 medium bell pepper (minced)
• 1/4 cup water
• 2 large eggs

1. Remove sausage from the casing & combine both meats in a bowl. Add the remaining ingredients & mix well. Let the mixture rest in the refrigerator for at least 1 hr for seasonings to "work".
2. Form hamburger patties as usual & make them about 3/4" larger than the bun. The burgers will shrink, so doing this will give you a "bun-fitting" hamburger patty.
3. Cook hamburgers on high heat on ea side for about 1 minute. Then finish them on a med low heat till done (An internal temp of 160F is recommended by the USDA).
4. When done, spray them on both sides w/a water mist & sprinkle a little salt on them. Serve immediately.
5. If not serving immediately, put the patties in a pan w/only enough water to cover the bottom. Keep them covered so they don't dry out. Doing all of this will give you a slightly moister hamburger patty.
