Cooking InstructionsHide images
step 1
Into a blender, add Whiskey (5 tsp), Ketchup (4 tsp), Dark Soy Sauce (1 Tbsp), Honey (1 Tbsp), Seville Marmalade (2 tsp), Worcestershire Sauce (1 Tbsp), Yellow Onion (1/4), and Garlic (2 cloves) and blend until smooth.
step 2
Pour the mixture into a saucepan and simmer on a very slow heat, stirring continuously until the sauce has thickened and turned glossy.
step 3
Combine 80/20 Lean Ground Beef (1.3 lb), Italian Flat-Leaf Parsley (1 handful), Coarse Sea Salt (to taste), and Ground Black Pepper (to taste). Shape into large circular patties – about 2 cm in thickness – and refrigerate until needed.
step 4
For the caramelized onions, fry the Yellow Onions (4) in Butter (1 Tbsp) until softened. Add in the Brown Sugar (1 tsp) and Balsamic Vinegar (10 tsp), and cook over medium heat, stirring often, until reduced and sticky. Keep warm until needed.
step 5
For the blue cheese sauce, place the Blue Cheese (3/4 cup) and Heavy Cream (1 cup) into a small saucepan and gently stir to melt the cheese into the cream. Sauce will continue to thicken once removed from the heat.
step 6
Toast your Pretzel Buns (6) on the stovetop.
