Blue Ridge Mountain Burgers
	Ingredients: 2 cups of Blue Ridge Vineyard Big Bear Red Wine 2 Tbsp brown sugar 1 lb lean ground beef Salt Pepper Worcestershire sauce 1 medium slicing tomato, cut into 1/2 inch slices Olive oil 3 Burger buns ("everything" buns pictured) 3 slices of your favorite cheese Method: 1. Preheat your grill to medium-high. 2. In a medium sauce pan over high heat, combine the      wine and brown sugar, stirring until dissolved. 3. Let boil and reduce to 6 Tbsp (3/8 cup).      This will take about ~25 minutes. Let cool to      room temp, ~10 minutes. 4. In a medium bowl, crumble ground beef and season      with salt, pepper, and a couple dashes of      Worcestershire sauce. 5. Add 1/4 cup of red wine reduction and lightly toss to mix. 6. Form 3 burger patties, handling as little as possible      (they'll feel really loose and fragile). 7. Drizzle tomato slices with olive oil and season      with salt and pepper. 8. Place burgers and tomatoes on the grill. Grill the      burgers to desired doneness (I typically cook both      the tomatoes and burgers ~4 minutes on each side). 9. Top with a slice of cheese and remove from the grill. 10. Place on a burger bun, drizzle the remaining red wine     reduction over the burgers, and top with a grilled tomato      slice and the top bun.
