Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground beef (80/20 blend for juiciness)
  • 1 cup BBQ sauce (your favorite brand)
  • 1/2 cup crispy fried onions
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 4 hamburger buns
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil (for cooking)

How to Make Sticky BBQ Beef Stack

  1. In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, soy sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix gently until just combined; do not overwork the meat.
  2. Divide the meat mixture into four equal portions and shape each into a thick patty, about 1 inch thick.
  3. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the patties and cook for 4-5 minutes on one side, until nicely browned.
  4. Flip the patties and brush a generous amount of BBQ sauce on top. Cook for an additional 4-5 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F.
  5. During the last minute of cooking, toast the hamburger buns in the skillet until golden brown.
  6. Remove the patties from the skillet and let them rest for a minute. Stack each patty on a toasted bun, drizzle with more BBQ sauce, and top with crispy onions and a sprinkle of sesame seeds.
  7. Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious Sticky BBQ Beef Stack!

Tips for the Best Results

  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure your patties are cooked to the correct temperature.
  • Let the patties rest after cooking to keep them juicy.
  • Feel free to adjust the amount of BBQ sauce based on your taste preference.

Easy Variations

  • For a spicy kick, mix in some chopped jalapeños or add a dash of hot sauce to the BBQ sauce.
  • Try swapping out the beef for ground turkey or chicken for a lighter option.
  • Add cheese on top of the patties during the last minute of cooking for a gooey, melty finish.

What to Serve With It

  • Crispy sweet potato fries
  • Coleslaw for a refreshing crunch
  • A simple green salad dressed with vinaigrette
  • Grilled corn on the cob
  • Pickles for a tangy bite

Storage and Reheating

Leftover patties can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place them in a skillet over medium heat until warmed through, or microwave for 30-60 seconds. Add extra BBQ sauce before serving for revitalized flavor.
