I frequently find ground pork in my grocery store for quite a bit less than ground beef or turkey. This is a quick recipe that gives me a unique way to make use of my bargain. From Food and Wine.
Ingredients:
1 1/2 lbs ground pork
1 1/2 teaspoons paprika
1 1/4 teaspoons dried thyme
3/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
3/4 teaspoon garlic powder
kosher salt
fresh ground black pepper
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 1/2 tablespoons dijon mustard
2 medium kosher dill pickles, very finely chopped
1/2 small shallot, minced
four 8-inch soft french baguette, split
2 cups shredded iceberg lettuce
2 tomatoes, thinly sliced
hot sauce, for serving
Directions:
1. Preheat a grill pan. In a large bowl, using your hands, mix the ground pork with the paprika, thyme, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, 1 1/2 teaspoons of kosher salt and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper. Form the pork into twelve 1/2-inch-thick patties. Grill the pork patties over moderate heat, turning once, until they are cooked through, about 8 minutes total.
2. Meanwhile, mix the mayonnaise with the Dijon mustard, pickles and shallot and season with salt and pepper. Spread the mayonnaise on both sides of the baguettes.
3. Place 3 pork patties on the bottom of each baguette and top with the lettuce, tomato and a few splashes of hot sauce. Close the sandwiches and serve.
