Grilled Jack Daniels Tennessee Whiskey Burgers

We still have some fresh garden tomatoes at the farmers’ markets here in upper Michigan. I love grilled burgers topped with fresh tomatoes so when I saw this Grilled Jack Daniels Tennessee Whiskey Burgers recipe I decided to fire up the grill.

This is a very simple recipe that is quick to put together and requires few ingredients. I don’t drink alcohol very much but I love incorporating it into recipes. You can taste the whiskey in the recipe but it’s not so strong that it over flavors the burger.  I thought the end result was really good; my wife thought they were delicious.

Fire up the grill and give these Jack Daniels Tennessee Whiskey Burgers a try.
