Here is a tasty burger recipe from Celebrity Cruise line.
Did you know that on a Solstice class ship there is an average of 166 chefs divided into various positions.? They are divided into various positions, as well, and are easily identified by different color neckerchiefs. Yellow neckerchiefs represent the junior positions, which are the 4th and 3rd cooks. Next, there are red neckerchiefs, which are 2nd cooks, followed by green neckerchiefs, which are our 1st cooks. The next highest position is the chefs de parties, who wear blue; these are the first of the supervisory positions. Next, we have our junior sous and sous chefs; they each have a black neckerchief with a silver toggle. The executive sous chefs are next in the ranking, wearing black neckerchiefs with a gold toggle. The executive chef is the only person in the culinary department that does not wear a neckerchief.

Braaied Boerwors Burgers
Ingredients:
• 1 lb lean ground beef
• 1 lb ground pork
• 2 teaspoon coriander seeds, roasted, pounded and sieved
• ¼ teaspoon ground cloves
• ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
• ¼ teaspoon ground allspice
• 1 teaspoon brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon malt vinegar
• Sea salt and freshly milled black pepper
To serve:
• 6 slices cheese (cheddar or Jarlsberg)
• 6 hamburger rolls
• Shredded crispy lettuce, sliced tomatoes, gherkins, mayonnaise and chutney
Method:
1. In a large bowl, mix together the ground beef and ground pork, the coriander seeds, ground cloves, ground nutmeg, sea salt, and freshly milled black pepper until well combined.
2. Using a scale, divide the mixture evenly into 6 portions – each should be about 7 oz. in weight. Form into patties about the size of the rolls. If you are going to braai them (barbecue them over charcoal), put the burgers directly above the white coals and turn them every 30 seconds until the patties are cooked. There should be no pink juice running out of them.
3. Just before they are done, place a slice of cheese on top of each patty and allow it to melt.
4. Toast the rolls lightly. Place the patties in the toasted rolls and garnish with the lettuce, tomato, gherkins, and chutney.
