Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds Ground beef (80% lean)
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 4 slices Cheddar cheese slices
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 8 ounces White or cremini mushrooms, sliced
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 4 pieces Brioche burger buns
- 4 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 4 pieces Lettuce leaves
- 1 piece Tomato, sliced
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine the ground beef with salt, black pepper, and Worcestershire sauce. Mix gently until just combined and divide the mixture into 4 equal portions. Shape each portion into a burger patty, about ¾ inch thick. Set aside.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter and 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Once melted, add the sliced mushrooms and cook for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they release their moisture and become golden brown.
Add the minced garlic to the mushrooms and sauté for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Season with a pinch of salt and black pepper. Remove the mushrooms from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, lower the heat to medium and add the burger patties. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on the first side without pressing down on them to keep the juices inside. Flip the patties and cook for another 4-5 minutes on the other side, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
Place a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each burger during the last 1-2 minutes of cooking. Cover the skillet with a lid to help the cheese melt evenly.
Lightly toast the burger buns in a separate skillet or in a toaster and spread a thin layer of mayonnaise on the cut sides of each bun.
Assemble the burgers by placing a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of the bun, followed by a cooked burger patty with melted cheese. Top with sautéed mushrooms, a tomato slice, and the top bun.
Serve immediately with your favorite sides like fries or a crisp salad. Enjoy!
