How To Make Stuffed Burgers Recipes

Steps:

• Make the herb butter: Mix the butter, parsley, garlic, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a small bowl. Transfer to a piece of plastic wrap and form into a 4-inch log. Wrap and freeze until firm enough to slice, about 20 minutes. Slice the butter log into 8 rounds.
• Make the burgers: Preheat a grill to medium high. Divide the ground beef into 4 mounds, place a slice of butter on each, then gently shape the beef around the butter to enclose. Press the beef into four 4-inch-wide patties (about 1/2 inch thick). Refrigerate until ready to grill. Set aside the remaining butter for serving.
• Season the burgers on both sides with salt and pepper. Grill until well marked, 3 minutes. Flip and top each with a slice of cheese. Cook 3 more minutes for medium rare, covering during the last 15 seconds to melt the cheese. Grill the buns until toasted.
• Spread the remaining herb butter on the bottom buns. Serve the burgers on the buns with mustard, onion, tomatoes and lettuce. Skewer cornichons on toothpicks and insert into each burger.

Steps:

• For the pimento cheese: Add the Cheddars, cream cheese, pimentos and mayo to a bowl and mix together. Add the chives, garlic powder, cayenne, smoked paprika and salt and pepper and mix until thoroughly combined.
• Place the cheese mixture on a sheet of plastic wrap and form into a log. Freeze for a few minutes or refrigerate up to overnight.
• For the sauce: Mix together the mayonnaise, hot sauce, Worcestershire, paprika and 1 tablespoon reserved pimento juice in a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
• For the burgers: Preheat a grill to medium heat.
• Mix the meats, breadcrumbs, Worcestershire, egg, salt and pepper together in a bowl with your hands until completely combined. Divide the meat into 8 portions and shape each into large thin patties. Slice four 1/2-inch slices off the pimento cheese log (reserve the rest for another use...snacking!). Place a pimento cheese slice on four of the patties and then top them with the remaining four patties, sealing the sides of the patties to enclose the cheese. (See Cook's Note.)
• Lightly oil the grill grates. Add the patties to the hot grill and cook until they reach an internal temperature of 160 degrees F, about 4 minutes per side.
• Spread the sauce on the buttered buns. Top each with lettuce, tomato, pickles, onions and a patty and close the burgers. Eat with lots of napkins.

Steps:

• Mix the ground beef, salt and pepper in a large bowl and form the mixture into 8 equal-size balls. Press a cube of desired cheese into the center of each ball and cover completely with meat. Form the balls into hamburger patties, about 1/4-inch thick. Grill burgers until desired doneness. Top with lettuce, tomatoes, onions and pickles as desired on a toasted bun.
• Place the drained pimientos in a blender or food processor and puree until smooth. Using an electric mixer, combine the pimientos and cheese, beating until smooth. Beat in the mayonnaise.

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for medium heat. When hot, lightly oil the grate.
• Fry the bacon in a skillet over medium heat for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Add onions to the pan; cook and stir until bacon is browned, but not crisp and onion is soft. Remove from the pan and drain on a paper towel-lined plate. Season to taste with black pepper.
• In a large bowl, mix together the ground beef and onion soup mix. Divide into 8 balls and then flatten into thin patties. Place a quarter of the bacon mixture onto each of four patties. Top with the remaining patties and press the edges together to seal.
• Grill the burgers for about 15 minutes, turning once, until well done. Serve on buns with your favorite condiments.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, gently mix together the beef, soy sauce, 3/4 tsp of the pepper, 1/2 tsp of the salt.
• Using generous 1/3 cup per patty, shape mixture into 8 (4 1/2-inch) patties 3/8 inch thick.
• Refrigerate while preparing the stuffing.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium high heat until hot.
• Add the butter and oil.
• Heat until hot and butter is melted.
• Add the mushrooms and cook for 2 min, stirring occasionally.
• Add the garlic and cook for 8-10 min or until the mushrooms are browned and the liquid has evaporated.
• Stir in the green onions, Worcestershire sauce, remaining 1/2 tsp pepper and remaining 1/4 tsp salt.
• Let cool.
• Mound about 1/2 cup of the stuffing in the center of 4 of the patties.
• Cover with the remaining 4 patties, sealing the edges firmly by pressing together with your fingers.
• Gently press the center of the burgers to eliminate mounding.
• Heat the grill or grill pan to medium heat.
• Grill for 5-6 minute.
• Flip the burgers and grill for 5-6 min more, or until no longer pink in the center.
• Top each burger with 1 slice of cheese, and grill for another min or so - until the cheese has melted.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together all of the mayonnaise ingredients.
• Place the buns on the grill, split side down, and grill for 30-60 sec or until lightly toasted.
• Spread each bun with 2 Tbs of the mayonnaise.
• Top with a burger and a tomato slice.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a frying pan over a medium heat and fry the onion with a good pinch of salt for 15 mins until soft and translucent. Add the pancetta and cook for 5 mins more, then add the garlic and thyme, and cook for 2 mins. Remove from the heat and leave to cool for 15 mins.
• Tip the mince into a large bowl. Massage with your hands for 5 mins to tenderise the meat, then add the cooled onion mix, the breadcrumbs and egg yolk. Season generously. Divide evenly into four, weighing for accuracy, if you like. Mix the cheddar and mozzarella together. Form the beef portions into patties, patting each into a 10cm round. Divide the cheese mixture into four, and, in your hands, form each portion into a firm ball, then press into a roughly 4cm disc. Working one at a time, put a cheese disc into the centre of a beef patty, then bring the meat around the cheese to cover. Lightly pat with the palm of your hand to flatten slightly, then chill, covered, for at least 30 mins or up to 48 hrs.
• Make the sauce by whizzing the mayonnaise, mustard and herbs together in a small food processor. Stir through the gherkins, then cover and chill until ready to use.
• Light the barbecue. When the flames have died down, grill the burgers on each side for 4-5 mins until charred (if you don't have a barbecue, see tip, below). Wrap individually in foil and leave on the barbecue for 5-7 mins so the cheese centre melts.
• Grill the buns, cut-side down, for 1-2 mins until toasted. Spread all the cut sides with the sauce, then fill with the beef patties, lettuce, tomatoes and crispy onions.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the first 5 ingredients. Crumble beef over mixture and mix well. Shape into 4 thin patties. Sprinkle cheese over 2 patties; top with remaining patties and press edges firmly to seal. , Grill burgers, covered, over medium heat 5-6 minutes on each side or until a thermometer reads 160°. Serve on buns, with lettuce and tomato if desired.
