Easy Breakfast Sausage Burgers Recipes

HOMEMADE BREAKFAST SAUSAGE PATTIES

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix everything together. The best way is to use your hands and really mix it all together. You can also use your stand mixer with the paddle attachment.
• There are a few different ways you can do this. I like to use a large cookie scoop / ice cream scoop. I lightly pack the meat into the scoop, release the scoop, then flatten it with my palm. Alternatively, you can just divide the meat into 12 rough balls, and shape each ball into a sausage patty. Lastly, you can also roll out the meat between parchment paper, then cut the sausages with a round cookie cutter / lip of a cup.
• Make 12 equal sized sausage patties. I make them about 1-inch thick if I am going to cook them straight away, but you can make according to your preference.
• If you are going to freeze half the batch, make the ones you are going to freeze no thicker than 1/2-inch, if you plan on cooking from frozen. Otherwise, you will need to defrost the sausage patties before cooking.
• Heat some oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the patties (you might need to do it in batches) and cook the first side for about 3-4 minutes, or until browned. Flip then cook the other side until browned and the sausage is cooked through.The most reliable way to to check if a sausage patty is cooked through is to use an instant read thermometer. The internal temperature of each sausage patty should be 160°F / 71°C.
• If you are cooking from frozen, follow the same instructions, but you will need to slightly increase the cooking time. If the sausages are browned but not cooked through, turn the heat down and finish cooking.

BREAKFAST FOR DINNER SAUSAGE-AND-EGG BURGERS

Steps:

• Mix together the mayonnaise, honey and sriracha in a small bowl. Spread on the inside of both halves of all the buns. Divide the lettuce, tomato and onion evenly among the bottom buns.
• Divide the sausage into 4 even pieces and pat and squeeze each piece into a ball. Put each ball on its own piece of plastic wrap and flatten into a thin patty 4 to 5 inches wide.
• Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the patties from the plastic wrap, add them to the skillet and cook until browned on both sides and cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. Lay a slice of Cheddar on each patty, cover the skillet and cook until the Cheddar melts, about 30 seconds. Transfer the patties to the bottom buns.
• Crack the eggs into the skillet, sprinkle with some salt and pepper and cook until the egg whites are set and the bottoms and edges are crispy and the yolks are still runny, 2 to 3 minutes. Set an egg on top of each sausage patty and top with the top buns. Eat right away.

Lay the Cheddar on the patty, cover the skillet and cook until the Cheddar melts, about 30 seconds. Remove, and set the patty on the bottom bun.
• Crack the egg into the skillet over medium-high heat, sprinkle with some salt and pepper and cook until the egg whites are set and crispy on the bottom and edges and the yolk is still runny, 2 to 3 minutes. Set the egg on top of the sausage patty, and top with the other bun half. Eat right away.

BREAKFAST SAUSAGE AND EGG CHEESEBURGERS

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium high.
• Form the sausage meat into 4 patties. Use your thumb to make an indentation in the center of each patty so they don't curl up while cooking. Grill until cooked through or the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees F, 3 to 5 minutes per side, depending on thickness. Add 2 slices of American cheese to each patty and close the grill until melted, about 1 minute.
• Place some avocado slices on the bottom buns and season with pinch of salt. Add a patty, then top with an egg and a few pickled Fresno chiles. Add the top bun and serve.
