Ingredients
| 600 g | Pork mince (with fat content) |
| 1 TL | Salt (for the patties) |
| 1/2 TL | Pepper |
| 2 TL | Paprika powder, smoked |
| 1 TL | Onion powder |
| 2 EL | Oil |
| 150 g | Ketchup |
| 2 EL | Vinegar |
| 2 EL | Brown sugar |
| 1 TL | Paprika powder, sweet |
| 1 TL | Mustard |
| 2 | Onions |
| 8 Scheiben | Gherkins |
| 4 Stück | Ready-made burger buns (elongated and soft — e.g. brioche or hot dog buns) |
Preparation
Step by step through the recipe
- 1 For the BBQ glaze, stir together 150 g ketchup, 2 EL vinegar, 2 EL brown sugar, 1 TL sweet paprika powder and 1 TL mustard in a small bowl until smooth.
- 2 Thoroughly knead 600 g pork mince with 1 TL salt, 1/2 TL pepper, 2 TL smoked paprika powder and 1 TL onion powder.
- 3 Shape the mince mixture into elongated, flat patties and lightly press the top surface crosswise at short intervals with the back of a spoon, creating rib segments.
- 4 Heat 2 EL oil in a pan and fry the patties vigorously on both sides until cooked through.
- 5 Brush the BBQ glaze onto the patties and let it caramelise briefly in the pan.
- 6 Finely dice 2 onions.
- 7 Cut the 4 Stück buns open and toast them briefly in the pan.
- 8 Place the patties in the buns, top with the diced onions and 8 Scheiben gherkins, and put the tops on.
Notes & tips
Tip: Chill the shaped patties briefly before frying – this helps them hold together better and keeps the rib look intact while frying. Extra easy: Use ready-made soft burger buns (elongated — e.g. brioche or hot dog buns) and toast them briefly – done in around 40 minutes, with no baking at all. Spicy version: Stir 1 tsp chilli flakes or a pinch of cayenne pepper into the BBQ glaze. Leftovers: Freeze fried patties in portions and reheat in a pan with a little glaze.
