Ding Dang It Burger

The Ding Dang It Burger is a hamburger infused with a smokey bacon cheddar cheese and topped with sweet Southern coleslaw on a Hawaiian bun.

I had a difficult time coming up with a title for this recipe. My almost-three-year-old granddaughter Hadley gave me the idea for the name. She enjoys watching whitetail deer on TV. When we see a big one, we call out, "Ding dang it!"

She had been busy playing with her toys, and then she grabbed the TV remote and jumped up on the sofa beside me and said, “Let’s watch deer and say ding dang it!”

So, that is what we did, and that is how I came up with the name. I think it fits perfectly. I mean, just look at that big juicy burger, and you will think, ding dang it!

Ding Dang It Burger Recipe

Ingredients:

• 3 pounds of hamburger meat (I used venison)
• 13.2 ounces of shredded Smoky Bacon Cheddar Cheese
• 3 teaspoons of minced garlic
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon of salt
• 12 Sam’s Choice Sweet Hawaiian Hamburger Buns
• 16 ounces of Marketside Tri-Color Coleslaw
• 1.25 cups Duke's Real Mayonnaise
• 1/4 cup of white distilled vinegar
• 2/3 cup pure cane sugar

Getting It Done:

1. Make the coleslaw first. Mix sugar and vinegar in a small or medium-sized bowl until smooth.
2. Then add the mayonnaise and mix until smooth.
3. Pour the mixture over the slaw. Mix and refrigerate.
4. Mix all ingredients for the burgers together in a large bowl. Make 12 burger patties.
5. Pan-fry over medium-high heat for about three minutes on each side or grill over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes per side or until cooked to the desired temperature. Rare is 125, medium done is 145, and well done is 160.
6. Put a burger on a bun and then add about 5 tablespoons of coleslaw on top and enjoy!

If you want to make your own tri-color slaw, just cut up a whole green cabbage head, a couple of carrots, and about 1/4 of a red cabbage head.

If you want to make fewer burgers, just cut the recipe down. One pound of ground burger will make about 3-4 burgers, depending on how big and thick you like yours.

If you are not a huge garlic fan, leave the minced garlic out. The burgers will still be awesome!

I used ground venison for this recipe, but you can use beef, chicken, turkey, or whatever you have on hand. You can even use a mixture of ground meats.

I hope you enjoy my recipe!
