Wild Blueberry Glazed Breakfast Burger

Breakfast burgers are polarizing, and this one commits fully to the sweet-savory thing in a way that actually earns it. Try it. Pork patties made with maple syrup and sage, glazed with wild blueberry preserves, topped with brie and bacon on a toasted English muffin. It sounds like too much until you eat one. The blueberry glaze caramelizes slightly over the pork and turns jammy and sticky at the edges. I genuinely look forward to making these on slow Saturday mornings when there’s no rush to get anywhere and coffee is still hot.

How to Make Wild Blueberry Glazed Breakfast Burger

The pork patties

Ground pork with a higher fat content holds together better on the grill and stays juicy under the glaze. Mix the maple syrup and sage directly into the meat before forming patties. Don’t overwork the mixture or the texture gets dense.

Getting the glaze right

Brush the blueberry glaze on during the last minute or two of grilling, not at the start. Sugar in the preserves burns fast over direct heat. Apply it when the patties are nearly done, then let the heat just set it. It should be sticky, not charred.

Building the burger

Warm brie softens quickly on a hot patty, so get everything else ready before the burgers come off the grill. Toast the English muffins, fry the eggs, cook the bacon. Assembly is fast once the patties are glazed and off the heat. Eat immediately while the brie is still melty.

Notes

• For richer flavor, use high-quality ground pork with a higher fat content.
• If Bonne Maman preserves are unavailable, substitute another high-quality wild blueberry jam or compote.
• These burgers reheat well; store assembled burgers in an airtight container and microwave for 1-2 minutes, or until heated through.
