HOW TO MAKE A MUSHROOM AND SWISS BURGER, STEP BY STEP:
MUSHROOMS:
- In a large skillet over medium heat add the oil and butter.
- Once the butter has melted add the sliced onions and cook for 3 minutes to start to soften them.
- Add the mushrooms and sauté for 4 more minutes until the onions and mushrooms are mostly softened.
- Add the mustard, water, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper and cook an additional 4-5 minutes to reduce the sauce and make the veggies totally softened. Remove from heat.
BURGERS:
- Preheat your grill to medium high- you are aiming for 375-400 degrees F.
- In a large mixing bowl with your hands or using a wooden spoon, combine the beef, seasoning salt, Worcestershire sauce, pepper, and garlic powder until just combined.
- Divide the meat into 4 equal pieces and form into patties slightly larger than the buns you are using.
- Grill each side of the patties for 4-6 minutes depending on the temperature of meat you’d like for your burger. For medium-well burgers, grill until the center reaches a temperature of 150. During the last 2-3 minutes of grilling add a slice or 2 of Swiss cheese to each patty.
- Assemble your burgers and top with a generous spoonful of prepared mushrooms and any desired condiments.
DO I HAVE TO MAKE THESE ON THE GRILL?
No, if you do not have a grill or just don’t want to make them on the grill, you can make these on the stove.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and cook each side of the patty for about 4-5 minutes.
WHAT IS THE BEST GROUND BEEF TO USE?
I used 80/20 ground beef in this recipe. Burgers taste better with higher fat but you can use a leaner ground beef.
WHAT CAN I SERVE WITH THESE MUSHROOM AND SWISS BURGERS?
Grilling out is one of my favorite things to do and these burgers can be served with so many things. Some of my favorites include:
- Homemade Baked Beans
- Pea Salad with Bacon
- Creamy Potato Salad
- Zucchini Fries
- Creamy Cucumber Salad
- Skillet Fried Corn
CAN I MAKE THESE AHEAD OF TIME?
You can make the patties ahead of time and store them covered in the refrigerator until ready to grill.
I wouldn’t suggest putting patties on the grill straight from the fridge. Putting super cold meat onto a hot grill makes the meat more tough and doesn’t cook as evenly.
Let the patties set out for 15 minutes before grilling.
HOW TO STORE:
Store leftover, unassembled, burger patties and mushrooms separately in airtight containers in the in the refrigerator where they will keep for up to 3 days.
You can also freeze burger patties uncooked. Place them in a freezer bag wrapped in parchment paper to keep the patties separated. They should keep for up to 3 months.
Thaw your patties, place in the refrigerator overnight until defrosted. Then grill according to directions.
TIPS AND TRICKS:
- Top with any of your favorite condiments.
- These can be frozen, see above on how to do that.
- Toast your buns for about 20-30 seconds on the grill for a nice and warm bun.
- Serve with various side dishes for a full meal, see above for ideas.
