Meat Lovers Cheeseburger Recipes

MEAT LOVERS CHEESEBURGER

Steps:

• Wisk together all ingredients in a medium bowl and set aside to thicken.
• Cook the bacon as desired.
• Form ground beef into two 1/2 lb patties, you can make 3 or 4 smaller patties if you'd like. Add butter to a medium skillet and melt over medium heat. Add patties to the pan and cook for 4 to 5 minutes on each side until the internal temperature is 165°F. In the last minute of cooking, add a slice of cheese to the top of each burger to melt. I usually toast my buns in the last few minutes of cooking too.
• Warm up the pulled pork.
• Spoon some of the prepared sauce onto the bottom of the bun, place burger on top of sauce, add half the pulled pork, then top with another spoonful of sauce, then add the bacon and top with the bun.

MEAT LOVER'S BURGER

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Place bacon in a skillet over medium heat, and cook until brown and crisp. Remove bacon from skillet and drain on paper towels.
• Return the skillet to the heat and increase the temperature to medium-high. Add the onion and garlic, and stir fry until the onion is soft and the garlic begins to brown. Add the balsamic vinegar, and cook while stirring for one minute. Add the chopped mushrooms, and cook for three additional minutes. Remove pan from heat and set aside.
• Finely chop 4 slices of the bacon (reserving the remaining 4). In a medium bowl, combine the chopped bacon, ground beef, bread crumbs, Italian seasoning, Parmesan cheese, mushroom mixture and egg. Mix well using hands. Season with salt and pepper, and form into two patties.
• Open the two halves of the hamburger bun on an ungreased cookie sheet. Place one beef patty on each half, and cover each with one slice of tomato, 2 slices of the reserved bacon and one slice of Swiss cheese.
• Bake for 25 minutes in the preheated oven, or until meat has cooked through.

CHEESEBURGER MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a large bowl, combine the beef, bread crumbs, onion, eggs, salt and pepper, and mix well. Pat out meat mixture into a 14x18 inch rectangle on a piece of wax paper. Spread cheese over the meat, leaving a 3/4 inch border around the edges. Roll up jelly roll fashion to enclose the filling and form a pinwheel loaf. Press beef in on both ends to enclose the cheese. Place in a 10x15 inch baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven 1 hour, or until internal temperature reaches 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).

Steps:

• 1. In a small frying pan put 1 tsp of olive oil. Then add the mushrooms, onion and garlic and saute for about 10 minutes.
• 2. In a large bowl, put in the sauted mushrooms, onions, and garlic. Then add the rest of the ingredients except the eggs. Beat the eggs well then add.
• 3. Mix the ingredients well and let them sit and rest for about 15 minutes for the flavors to mix.
• 4. Put the rest of the olive oil in the frying pan and heat the oil until it snaps from a drop of water. Make each patty and place in the pan. Fry them 5 or so minutes on each side.
• 5. Sprinkle on the steak sauce while cooking. (optional) Then serve.
• 6. If you are putting them on the grill, leave out step 4. Add your regular condiments and enjoy.

MEAT-LOVERS' VEGGIE BURGER

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, combine rice and water. Bring to a rolling boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and cover. Simmer until all the water is absorbed, about 10 minutes. Set aside.
• In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of oil. Add frozen veggies and cook for 1 minutes or so to soften. (This is also the stage where you would cook onions and garlic if you would like to add them!).
• Remove veggies to a large bowl. Stir in rice, oats, walnuts, cheese, flour, basil, salt and pepper into vegetable mixture. Add the egg and stir until starchy, about 1 minute. (Make sure to beat the egg BEFORE adding to the other ingredients. Otherwise your patties won't bind as well.).
• Using a 1/3 cup dry measure, scoop and form mixture into 8 patties.
• In the same large skillet you cooked the veggies, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil over medium heat. Cook patties in oil until browned on one side, about 3 minutes. Turn over and continue cooking until browned and cooked through, about 2 minutes.
• Serve however you like - I suggest inside of pita bread.
