How to prepare:
• Combine Worcestershire sauce, egg, garlic powder, onion powder, pepper, oats, sugar and add to ground beef; mix well, then form into patties (for best flavour, make mixture ahead of time and let sit in fridge for one hour prior to making patties)
• Preheat BBQ to medium heat and cook patties to your liking; when burgers are almost cooked, brush each side with BBQ sauce (leave 2 Tbsp aside)
• In the meantime, prepare the dressing as follows: add garlic and anchovies to bowl and combine, then add Worcestershire sauce, mustard, and egg yolk; slowly whisk in oil to create an emulsion (creamy texture). Once ready to serve, mix romaine with dressing, and sprinkle with lemon juice,
pepper, parmesan cheese, bacon, and croutons
• Brush burger patty with remaining BBQ sauce and assemble by adding bacon strips,
cheddar slices, tomato slices, onion, and lettuce
• Enjoy!
