Smoky Gouda Burgers
Ingredients:
- 1 pound 85/15% ground beef, divided into 4 equal portions
- 4 slices smoked Gouda cheese
- 4 Brioche or sesame seed buns
- Bread & butter pickle chips
- ½ cup French fried onions
- 1/2 cup baby bella mushrooms, thinly sliced
- Worcestershire sauce, to taste
- 2 Tbs butter
- 1 Tbs olive oil
- Salt & pepper to taste
Directions:
- Bring your heat source to medium-high. You can use a grill, flat top griddle, or even pan-fry. Your choice! Just get the heat fired up!
- Get the French fried onions ready by lining a paper plate with a paper towel, then sprinkling the French fried onions evenly over it. Microwave for 15 seconds to get them crispy (you’ll hear them sizzle, too!) and set aside.
- Form four beef patties from the ground beef and flatten evenly to about 1/3” thickness all the way across. Finish by seasoning with salt and pepper.
- For pan frying or a flat top griddle, add the butter and olive oil to the cooking surface. Obviously skip this step if you’re using a grill with a grate!
- Add the burger patties to the prepared surface and give them a generous splash of Worcestershire sauce.
- Grill until cooked through, flipping them occasionally so they don’t burn. Cook them to doneness by temperature, which is 155-160 degrees for well done.
- Once the burgers reach your desired level of doneness, but while still on the pan, top each with a slice of Gouda cheese. Remove from heat and let the Gouda get all melty on the burger. Yum!
- Add the sliced mushrooms to the remaining beef drippings in the pan or on the griddle and saute under tender, about 2 minutes.
- Place the buns under the broiler and toast them until golden while the mushrooms are sauteing.
- Assemble: bun, burger, sweet pickle chips, mushrooms, French fried onions, and bun top. Enjoy!
