cheeseburgers

Learn how to make classic smashed cheeseburgers with a deep brown, beefy crust.

Classic Smashed Burgers Recipe

vegetable oil

salt and black pepper

Cheese

Toppings and condiments

burger buns

Add oil to a 12-inch stainless steel or cast iron skillet and wipe around with a paper towel. Set skillet over medium heat and allow to preheat for about 5 minutes. Meanwhile, gently form each portion of ground beef into a cylindrical puck about 2 inches tall, pressing together just until meat holds its shape without falling apart. Season generously on all sides with salt and pepper.

Increase heat to high until skillet is smoking. Add pucks to skillet and using a firm, stiff metal spatula, press down on each one until they're roughly 4 to 4 1/2-inches in diameter and 1/2-inch thick. It helps to use a second spatula to apply downward pressure to the first if you are having trouble smashing them hard enough.

Cook without moving until a golden brown crust develops, about 1 1/2 minutes. Use the edge of the spatula to carefully scrape up and flip the patties one at a time, making sure to get all browned bits removed from the skillet. If using cheese, add now.

Continue to cook until patties are cooked to desired doneness—about 30 seconds longer for medium rare. Top buns or patties as desired, transfer patties to buns, close burgers, and serve.

Next time you&#x27;re craving a restaurant-style hamburger, let your air fryer do the work! In less than 10 minutes you&#x27;ll have juicy, flavorful Air Fryer Hamburgers cooked to perfection right in your very own kitchen!

Air Fryer Hamburger

Cheeseburger Hobo Dinner Packets are a delicious twist on the traditional hobo dinner. A foil packet full of potatoes, carrots, onions, and a seasoned homemade cheeseburger makes for an easy meal

Cheeseburger Hobo Dinner Packets

ground beef, 80% lean

eggs lightly beaten

garlic powder

salt and pepper,

red baby potatoes,

baby carrots,

cheese

heavy duty aluminum foil

Prep your vegetables.  I used baby carrots that I cut in half, small red potatoes cut in half or quarters, and chopped a medium onion.  Set aside.

In a medium bowl, combine the ground beef, egg, garlic powders, salt and pepper, and mix together.  Make 8 patties, set aside.

Tear off 8 sheets of heavy duty aluminum foil (about 12&quot; x 18&quot;).  I like to stack the sheets and do one packet at a time. Spray the first sheet of foil with non-stick spray.  Place about 1/8 of the potatoes, carrots, and onions in the center of the foil packet. Season vegetables with salt and pepper.

Top with a hamburger patty.

Seal up the packets and place on a tray. REPEAT these steps for the remaining 7 packets.

Assembling the packets

Keep in mind that your cooking time may vary depending on how much or little you have in your packets.

Oven: Foil packets are easy to cook in the oven. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Place the hobo dinner foil packets on a rimmed baking sheet and cook for 45 minutes or until vegetables are tender and the ground beef reaches an internal temperature of 160 degrees.  I like to to turn the packs halfway through.Over the Fire/Camping:  Cook the packets right over the coals. Avoid flames for they will burn through the packet. This will take 30 to 45 minutes depending on the size of the packet.On the Grill: Grill for 35-45 minutes or until potatoes and carrots are tender and the ground beef reaches 160 degrees. I flipped mine over during the last 20 minutes of cooking.**With any of the methods, during the last 5 minutes of cooking time, open packets and add the cheese to the burgers.  Allow cheese to melt with the foil open, and then serve.

Butter Burgers are amazingly delicious and our favorite burger recipe! These butter-soaked burgers are not for the health-conscious, but they are for anyone who enjoys REALLY GOOD FOOD.

Butter Burger Recipe

sweet yellow onion (chopped)

water

black pepper

90% beef

hamburger buns (toasted)

In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons butter over medium heat. Add chopped onion, water and ¼ teaspoon salt. Cover and cook, until tender, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low and remove lid. Continue to cook until onions are translucent and just beginning to brown, about 3 more minutes. Transfer onions to a plate, and divide into 4 equal portions; set onions aside until ready to use.

Divide beef into 4 equal sized portions and gently shape each into a 4½x½-inch patty. Sprinkle both sides of the patties with salt and pepper. Refrigerate the patties 15-30 minutes.

Spread each bun top with 2 tablespoons butter; set aside.

Heat oil in the same skillet used for the onions until the oil begins to smoke. Use a spatula to transfer the patties to the skillet and cook 3 minutes (without moving them). Flip the patties and cook 1 more minute. Place 1 cheese slice over each patty and continue to cook until cheese is melted, about 20-30 seconds more.

Transfer patties to the bun bottoms and place ¼ of the sautéed onions on each patty. Top each with the buttered bun tops and serve immediately.

Enjoy!

Butter Burgers are amazingly delicious and our favorite burger recipe! These butter-soaked burgers are not for the health-conscious, but they are for anyone who enjoys REALLY GOOD FOOD. This Wisconsin Butter Burger recipe will have you drooling before you even bite into the juicy, cheesy, buttery goodness.

Butter Burgers

Homemade hamburgers only require a few simple ingredients, but the process is key for perfect burgers. This recipe breaks down those steps so you can have a delicious, juicy, burger. 

Perfect Hamburgers

chuck (80/20 ground beef)

onion soup mix

Worcestershire sauce

cheese (optional)

buns, tomatoes, onions, lettuce, condiments, etc

Place the ground beef in a large mixing bowl and add in the Worcestershire sauce and Onion Soup Mix.

Gently mix the seasonings into the meat using your hands until just incorporated.

Score the meat into 4 sections. And then shape each section into a patty that is about 3/4 to 1 inch thick and slightly larger than the bottom of your burger bun.

Using your thumb, press down on the center of each burger about 1/4 inch deep, forming an indentation in each burger.

Place the hamburger patties back into the refrigerator until ready to grill.

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.

Add the burgers to the grill and cook for 4 minutes on the first side.

Flip the burgers, resisting the urge to press down on the patty. Cook until the burgers reach 155 degrees Fahrenheit.

Remove burgers from the grill and place onto a plate or a rack on a baking sheet. Top with sliced cheese if desired, and loosely tent with aluminum foil. Let burgers rest for 10 minutes before assembling the burger.

Assemble the hamburgers by placing onto a bun and then topping as desired.
