Jack Daniel’s Tennessee whiskey isn’t just for sipping. Jack’s got a bunch of recipes on his website featuring Jack® as an ingredient. Here’s an example:

Tennessee Whiskey Burgers

1 ½ pounds ground beef
6 slices cheese (optional)
6 strips cooked bacon (optional)
6 buns or English muffins

Smoky Jack Burger Sauce

3 tablespoons Jack Daniel’s® Tennessee Whiskey
3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons garlic salt
2 teaspoons liquid smoke

Chili Jack Burger Sauce

3 tablespoons Jack Daniel’s® Tennessee Whiskey
3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons garlic salt
2 teaspoons chili powder

For either burger recipe, combine all sauce ingredients in a small bowl. Add 3 tablespoons of the whiskey sauce to the ground beef in a large mixing bowl. Blend well with your hands and form into 6 patties. Sear the patties about 2 to 3 minutes per side directly over high heat. Reduce heat to medium or move to a cooler area of the grill. Baste both sides with the remaining sauce and grill until the burgers are cooked through. During the last minutes of cooking, top with cheese and bacon, both optional, and lightly toast the buns or English muffins over medium heat. Makes 6 servings.
