Description

These Mushroom Beef Burgers combine juicy ground beef with savory sautéed mushrooms and onions for a flavorful twist on a classic burger. Enhanced with garlic, Worcestershire sauce, and breadcrumbs to keep them tender, these patties are grilled to perfection and can be topped with melting cheese slices for an indulgent finish.

Ingredients

Beef Patty Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef (80/20)
  • 1 cup finely chopped mushrooms (cremini or button)
  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 cup plain breadcrumbs
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Toppings

  • Cheese slices (optional)

Cooking

  • Olive oil (for sautéing mushrooms and onions)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Vegetables: Finely chop the mushrooms and onion to ensure they blend well into the burger mixture, providing flavor and moisture.
  2. Sauté Mushrooms and Onions: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and sauté the chopped mushrooms and onions until softened and fragrant, approximately 5 minutes. This enhances their flavor and reduces moisture that could make the patties soggy.
  3. Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the sautéed mushrooms and onions with ground beef, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, plain breadcrumbs, salt, and pepper. Mix gently until just combined to avoid toughening the meat.
  4. Form Patties: Shape the mixture into equal-sized patties about one inch thick to ensure even cooking.
  5. Preheat Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat to get a good sear on the burgers.
  6. Grill Patties: Cook each patty on the grill for 4-5 minutes per side or until your preferred degree of doneness is reached. This technique locks in juices and creates a flavorful crust.
  7. Add Cheese (Optional): In the final minute of grilling, place cheese slices on the patties to allow them to melt for a delicious finishing touch.

Notes

  • Use 80/20 ground beef for optimal juiciness and flavor.
  • Choose cremini or button mushrooms for their mild flavor that complements beef.
  • Do not overmix the burger mixture to keep patties tender.
  • If you don’t have a grill, you can cook the patties in a skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Let the patties rest for a few minutes after cooking to retain juices.
