Ingredients

• 1 lb Ground beef
• 0.5 lb Ground pork
• 0.5 cup Panko breadcrumbs
• 0.25 cup Milk
• 1 Egg
• 0.5 Yellow onion, finely diced
• 2 Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
• 1 tsp Dijon mustard
• 1 tsp Salt
• 0.5 tsp Ground black pepper
• 0.25 cup Ketchup
• 1 tbsp Brown sugar
• 1 tsp Apple cider vinegar
• 1 tbsp Vegetable oil
• 1 tbsp Parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef and ground pork.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix the panko breadcrumbs with the milk and let it sit for 2 minutes to soften.

Step 3

Add the softened breadcrumbs, egg, diced onion, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper to the meat mixture. Mix gently with your hands until just combined. Do not overmix.

Step 4

Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each into a patty about 1 inch thick.

Step 5

In a small bowl, whisk together ketchup, brown sugar, and apple cider vinegar to make the glaze. Set aside.

Step 6

Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the patties and cook for 4-5 minutes per side until browned.

Step 7

Reduce the heat to low. Spoon the prepared glaze over each patty, cover the skillet with a lid, and let the patties cook for an additional 5-7 minutes until they reach an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C).

Step 8

Remove the patties from the skillet and let them rest for 3 minutes before serving.

Step 9

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired, and serve warm with mashed potatoes or roasted vegetables.
