Equipment

  • Medium non-stick pan
  • Grill or grill pan

Ingredients

  • ½ pound white button mushrooms sliced thin
  • 2 tablepoons butter
  • 2 cloves garlic pressed or grated
  • ¼ cup Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce (optional)
  • ½ to ¾ pound ground beef 80/20
  • 1 tablespoon Burger Seasoning or Montreal Steak Seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon Paprika Sweet Hungarian Paprika is best!
  • Salt and Pepper to taste
  • 4 slices Swiss cheese
  • 2 Brioche Hamburger Buns toasted under broiler
  • 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise or garlic Aioli

Instructions

  • Form the ground beef into patties, making them a little wider than the bun. Do not overwork the meat or your burgers will be too dense.
  • Generously sprinkle with burger seasoning, paprika, salt, and pepper to taste. Separate the patties with parchment or waxed paper and refrigerate until 30 minutes before cooking.

For the mushrooms:

  • Slice the mushrooms and set aside.
  • Melt the butter or (1 TBS olive oil) in a medium non-stick pan. Add the garlic and cook until the garlic is just fragrant. Be careful not to burn it.
  • Add the mushrooms to the hot pan with the oil and garlic.
  • Cook the mushrooms over medium heat to medium-high heat as they release their liquid.
  • Cook until tender, lightly browned and the liquid has cooked off just leaving whatever melted butter remains.
  • Remove from heat and add the Parmesan cheese. Stir and return to heat for a minute.
  • Season to taste with salt, and pepper. Add the Worcestershire sauce if using.
  • Remove the burger patties from the fridge and grill to preferred internal temperature. Use a bbq grill or stovetop grill pan for best results.
  • Cook on one side until you get some charring then flip the patties and cook the other side.
  • Turn off heat and place two slices of cheese atop each patty. Let the cheese melt completely.
  • Serve the burgers on fresh toasted Brioche or sesame buns, topped with the sauteed mushrooms, mayonnaise or garlic aioli.
  • Enjoy piping hot!
