For the burgers:

For the ketchup:
MEANWHILE, make the Bloody Mary Ketchup using the olive oil,
garlic, Worcestershire Powder, apple cider vinegar, light brown sugar, tomato paste, and a dash of hot sauce. Taste and adjust the seasonings, if necessary. Place in refrigerator until ready to serve with cooked burgers.
HEAT grill and begin shaping the meat into 9 patties about ¾-inch thick, or 12 patties ½-inch think. Lightly brush each one with oil, then place on a grill over high heat. Grill for 3 to 4 minutes on each side or to desired doneness. Add cheese to the top of each burger while still cooling, if preferred. Add the burger to a bun and smear with Bloody Mary Ketchup. Top with optional toppings. Enjoy!
Optional: TOAST the buns lightly on the cut side, then top with
additional toppings.
