Time 45m

Yield serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 18

For the sauce:
1/2 cup mayonnaise
3 tablespoons sour cream
3 tablespoons roughly chopped fresh basil (or chives, parsley, mint)
1 scallion (white and green parts), trimmed and roughly chopped
1 garlic clove, quartered
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
For the burgers:
1 1/4 pounds 80% lean ground beef
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
4 hamburger buns
1 tomato, cored, thinly sliced, and lightly salted
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • To make the sauce: Place the mayonnaise, sour cream, basil, scallion, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper in the bowl of a food processor and puree until creamy and pale green. Transfer to a small bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate until you are ready to use it.
  • To make the burgers: Heat a charcoal or gas grill to medium-high. Divide the ground beef into 4 equal pieces and gently form into patties. Use your thumb to make a small indentation in the middle of each burger (this is so the burger grills flat and doesn't contract and puff up on the grill). Brush both sides of the burgers with the oil and then season with salt and pepper.
  • Place the burgers on the grill and cook until they have grill marks, about 4 minutes. Flip the burgers, cook 2 minutes longer, and then top each with about 1 tablespoon of the mozzarella. Cook the burgers 2 more minutes for medium-rare doneness and remove from the grill. Place the buns on the grill, cut side down, and lightly toast, 30 seconds to 1 minute.
  • Set a burger on each bottom bun half. Top with a salted tomato slice. Spread 1 tablespoon of the garlic-herb sauce on the top bun half, sprinkle with Parmesan, cover the burger, and serve with more sauce on the side for dipping.

Categories     main-dish

Time 15m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 3

Unsalted butter, at room temperature, for buttering bread
4 slices country white bread
4 slices American cheese

Steps:

  • Spread just enough butter to cover both sides of each slice of bread.
  • In a large nonstick pan set over medium heat, add the bread slices and cook until they're an even golden brown on the first side, about 2 minutes. Flip 2 of the slices over and top each with 2 slices of the cheese. Place the other 2 slices of bread on top, toasted-side down, forming 2 sandwiches. Continue to cook the sandwiches until the bottoms are golden brown, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook the remaining side for an additional 2 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use thick-sliced bread for a sturdy bun that can hold up to the burger and its toppings.
  • Butter the bread slices before grilling to create a golden, crispy crust.
  • Use a variety of cheeses to create a flavorful and gooey grilled cheese bun.
  • Cook the burgers to your desired doneness. If you like a medium-rare burger, cook it for about 4 minutes per side. For a medium-well burger, cook it for about 6 minutes per side.
  • Top the burgers with your favorite toppings, such as lettuce, tomato, onion, and pickles.
  • Serve the burgers immediately on the grilled cheese buns.

Conclusion:

Grilled cheese bun burgers are a delicious and unique twist on the classic burger. By using grilled cheese sandwiches as buns, you can create a burger that is both flavorful and gooey. With a variety of toppings to choose from, you can customize your burger to your liking. So next time you're in the mood for a burger, give grilled cheese bun burgers a try.
