Summer has officially arrived and the smell of barbequed meat is in the air. Executive chef Rob Bragagnolo from Marben restaurant in Toronto has helped President’s Choice create the ultimate burger.

THE GREAT LAKES GUAC AND GOUDA BURGER
Ingredients:
1 ripe avocado
1 tbsp chopped cilantro
1 tbsp lime juice
1 tbsp PC® black label Peperoncini Piccanti peppers
1 tbsp PC® black label Spiced Tomato Condiment
1 tsp salt
4 PC® Loads of Gouda, Mushrooms & Onions Burger
PC® Naturally Smoked Bacon Rounds
4 slices plain or smoked Gouda cheese
4 each PC® Ciabatta Burger Buns
2 tbsp PC® black label Caramelized Red Onion Chutney
Preparation:
In a bowl, combine the avocado, cilantro, lime juice, PC® black label Peperoncini Piccanti peppers, PC® black label Spiced Tomato Condiment, and salt and mash well with a fork. Refrigerate until ready to build the burgers.
Preheat BBQ to medium-high heat. Place the Loads of Gouda, Mushrooms & Onions Burger patties on BBQ and cook for 5-6 minutes per side or until done. Add bacon slices to the grill, flip when lightly crisped and place on top of patty. Add plain or smoked Gouda cheese on top of bacon and close lid to cook until the cheese is just melted. Remove burgers from grill and keep warm.
Place PC® Ciabatta Burger Buns on BBQ, cut side down, for a few moments until lightly toasted. Slather both sides of toasted buns with PC® black label Caramelized Red Onion Chutney and place cooked PC® Loads of Gouda, Mushrooms & Onions Burger on bottom bun. Spoon a tablespoon of guacamole on top of the burger. Place top half of the bun on top and lightly squish down to spread the guacamole evenly.
Serve with favourite side dish.
TIP: PC® also has a guacamole seasoning pre-made in a jar (looks like salsa)– all you need to do is mash up a couple of avocados and add in the guac seasoning mixture. It’s a time saver!
