Garlic Crostini:

8 slices sourdough bread (about 4”x3”x½”)
Extra virgin olive oil
2 large cloves garlic, cut lengthwise into quarters

Instructions:

  1. Combine minced garlic, 1 teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon pepper in small bowl or cup, and a small amount of Extra virgin olive oil, mixing lightly but thoroughly.
  2. Place patties on grill over medium, ash-covered coals. Grill, uncovered, 13 to 15 minutes to medium (160° F) doneness, until not pink in center and juices show no pink color, turning occasionally, half-way through cooking, brush some of the garlic, salt, pepper, and olive oil mixture after each turn.
  3. Meanwhile brush both sides of bread slices lightly with oil. Place bread around outer edge of grill. Grill a few minutes until lightly toasted, turning once. Remove bread slices from grill; rub both sides of each slice with a garlic quarter.
  4. Place one lettuce leaf on four of the bread slices; top each with a burger. Sprinkle evenly with cheese; cover with remaining bread slices. Cut burgers in half; arrange on lettuce-lined platter, if desired
