Ingredients

2 cups Italian Olive Salad
1 ½ tsp dry chili flakes
6 oz Head Beef Salami, sliced thinly
½ cup finely chopped white onion
2 Tbsp minced garlic
2 tsp Kosher salt
1 tsp fresh ground black pepper
1 tsp ground coriander
1 tsp ground cumin
2 Tbsp Worchester sauce
2 Tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
2 pounds fresh ground chuck (80/20)
6 Sesame Kaiser rolls, sliced
Oil for grill
12 slices Turkey
12 slices Provolone cheese
Drained oil from olive salad

 

Instructions

Combine olive salad with dry chili flakes. Let stand in bowl at room temperature for at least one hour. Stack slices of salami and cut into three sections. Then cut sections into a fine julienne, about 1/8â€Â wide. Place in bowl with onion, garlic, salt, pepper, coriander, cumin, Worchester sauce, soy sauce and ground beef. Mix with your hands until well combined. Divide into six even portions and form into patties. Refrigerate patties until ready to grill. Make a small crater or divot in the bottom half of each Kaiser roll by pinching out the bread. Over medium heat, toast rolls lightly on both sides. Remove rolls and set aside. Remove patties from refrigerator. Oil grill grates. Place patties on grill, cook for two minutes. Flip patties and cook for another two minutes. Place turkey slices directly onto the grill, heating quickly for about 30 seconds. Then place two slices of turkey on each patty and top with two slices of cheese. Leave patties on the grill until the cheese melts. Remove patties from grill and cover lightly with foil. Drain olive salad. Using the oil drained from the olive salad, brush each roll top to flavor bread without making soggy. Put 1/3 cup of the olive salad into the crater or divot of the bottoms of the rolls. Top with the patties and the tops of the rolls. Enjoy!!
