Instructions
- 1 Gather all your ingredients.
- 2 Combine beef, fish sauce, soy sauce, freshly ground black pepper, and 5-spice powder in a bowl, and mix until evenly combined. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until chilled.
- 3 Mix mayonnaise, hoisin, and Sriracha together in a small bowl for sauce. Keep chilled until needed. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with foil.
- 4 Cut open rolls, remove about 1/2 of the inside crumb, and place on the prepared baking sheet.
- 5 Bake rolls in the preheated oven until toasted, 5 to 10 minutes.
- 6 Meanwhile, using damp hands, shape beef mixture into two burger patties sized to match your rolls or buns. Keep in the refrigerator until needed.
- 7 Combine carrots and daikon radish in a bowl. Add rice vinegar and toss to coat. Refrigerate until needed.
- 8 Preheat a charcoal grill to high heat.
- 9 Cook burgers over the hot coals until desired doneness is reached and they spring back to the touch, turning as needed, about 4 minutes per side for medium-rare. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the centers should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
- 10 Slather toasted buns with mayo mixture. Place cucumbers and jalapeno slices on bottom of rolls, and top with cooked burgers. Top with carrot-radish mixture and cilantro.
- 11 Serve and enjoy!
