For the Burger Patties:

• 5 pounds ground beef (80% lean)
• 1/4 cup finely chopped red onion
• 1/4 cup finely chopped celery
• 1/4 cup breadcrumbs
• 2 tablespoons buffalo sauce (plus extra for brushing)
• Salt and pepper to taste

For the Ranch Sauce:

• 1/2 cup mayonnaise
• 1/4 cup sour cream
• 2 tablespoons buttermilk
• 1 teaspoon dried dill
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
• Salt and pepper to taste

For Assembling:

• 4 burger buns
• Lettuce leaves
• Sliced tomato
• Sliced red onion
• Blue cheese crumbles (optional)
• Sliced pickles (optional)

Instructions:

    Prepare the Burger Patties:

1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, chopped red onion, chopped celery, breadcrumbs, buffalo sauce, salt, and pepper.
2. Gently mix the ingredients until they are well combined.
3. Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape them into burger patties.

    Prepare the Ranch Sauce:

1. In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream, buttermilk, dried dill, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
2. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. Refrigerate the sauce until it’s time to assemble the burgers.

    Cook the Burger Patties:

1. Preheat your grill or a skillet over medium-high heat.
2. If using a grill, lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
3. Grill the burger patties for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare to medium doneness.

    Assemble the Buffalo Ranch Rapture Burgers:

• While the patties are cooking, lightly toast the burger buns on the grill or in a toaster.
• Spread a generous amount of the ranch sauce on both the top and bottom halves of each bun.
• Place a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each bun.
• Add a cooked burger patty on the lettuce.
• Drizzle a little extra buffalo sauce on top of the patty for an extra kick.
• Top with sliced tomato, sliced red onion, blue cheese crumbles (if desired), and pickles (if desired).
• Place the other half of the bun on top.

    Serve and Enjoy:

Serve your Buffalo Ranch Rapture Burgers immediately with your favorite sides, such as crispy French fries or coleslaw.

These burgers offer a perfect balance of flavors, with the buffalo sauce providing a zesty kick and the ranch dressing adding a cool and creamy element.

Customize your burger by adjusting the level of buffalo sauce to your desired spiciness. Enjoy!
