The Seahawk Burger takes inspiration from the city of Seattle, which is known for its seafood and coffee. The burger adds a unique twist to a classic cheeseburger by incorporating Washington state red wine and farmer's market arugula. Grass-fed beef provides a healthier alternative to grain-fed beef, and it is seasoned with just the right amount of salt and black pepper to allow the other ingredients to shine through. The Seattle Aioli, a blend of mayonnaise and Sriracha sauce, packs a spicy punch of heat to the burger. This burger is a delicious and exciting new take on a traditional cheeseburger that will leave you craving more.

Instructions

1.Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat.
2.Cook onion and mushrooms in the hot oil until onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper.
3.Add red wine to the onion mixture and continue cooking until most of the wine has evaporated, about 5 minutes.
4.Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
5.Season beef patties with salt and black pepper.
6.Grill patties on the preheated grill until browned and no longer pink inside, about 4 minutes per side.
7.While the patties cook, combine mayonnaise and Sriracha sauce in a small bowl.
8.Serve burger patties on buns, topped with the onion and mushroom mixture, an aioli, and arugula.
