Instructions
- 1 Chill meat grinder's head assembly and grinder hopper in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
- 2 Meanwhile, combine pork, Aleppo peppers, chili powder, garlic, salt, black pepper, oregano, cumin, cloves, and coriander in a bowl until thoroughly blended. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap; refrigerate for 1 hour.
- 3 Fill a large bowl with ice cubes; place a smaller metal bowl in larger bowl onto ice cubes. Assemble chilled meat grinder.
- 4 Grind pork mixture into the smaller metal bowl using the coarse cutting plate. Chill ground meat in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
- 5 Gently stir vinegar and water into pork mixture until thoroughly mixed; form into 8 patties. Place patties on a plate; cover and refrigerate until flavors develop, 8 hours to overnight.
- 6 Heat oil in a heavy skillet over medium-low heat. Carefully add patties to the skillet in batches; cook until browned and no longer pink in centers, 5 to 8 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into centers should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
