Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

2 tablespoons butter
1 large onion, quartered lengthwise then thinly sliced
Splash water
2 tablespoons spicy mustard
1 pound sack sauerkraut, rinsed and drained
3/4 cup sour cream
1/4 cup ketchup
1/4 cup pickle relish
1 1/2 pounds ground pork or ground pork and veal combined
1 teaspoon dried marjoram
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1 teaspoon celery seeds
1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
2 tablespoons cider or white wine vinegar
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
4 deli slices Emmentaler Swiss cheese, folded to fit burgers
4 seeded or plain burger rolls, split
4 leaves red leaf or red romaine lettuce

Steps:

  • Heat medium skillet over medium heat, add the butter and when melted add the onions and cook until soft and tender, 20 minutes. When done, add a splash of water and stir in the mustard.
  • Add sauerkraut to a small pot and keep warm over low heat.
  • Combine sour cream, ketchup and relish in a small bowl and reserve.
  • In a large bowl, combine the meat, spices, parsley, vinegar and salt and pepper, to taste. Form 4 patties, thinner at middle and thicker at edges for more even cooking and to prevent burgers from bulging at the middle. Heat the oil in nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook patties 5 minutes on each side. Melt the cheese over the patties the last 2 minutes of cooking, under foil tent.
  • To serve, pile the onions on the bun bottoms and top with a leaf of lettuce, cheese wurst burger, sauerkraut, and the sour cream sauce. Cover with the tops of the buns and serve.

Take burgers to the next level by stuffing them with cheddar and mozzarella for a gooey centre, and topping them with a dollop of herby burger sauce

Provided by Esther Clark

Categories     Dinner, Main course, Supper

Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 19

1½ tbsp olive oil
1 onion , very finely chopped
70g smoked pancetta , finely chopped
1 garlic clove , crushed
4 thyme sprigs, leaves picked
500g lean beef mince (no more than 10% fat)
50g fresh breadcrumbs
1 egg yolk
60g mature cheddar , grated
60g grated mozzarella
120g mayonnaise
2½ tsp English mustard
½ small bunch of parsley , finely chopped
½ small bunch of basil
50g baby gherkins , finely chopped
4 seeded burger buns , split
2-3 Little Gem lettuces , leaves separated
2 ripe tomatoes , sliced
crispy fried onions

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.

STUFFED REUBEN BURGERS!



Stuffed Reuben Burgers! image

These Burgers are so good and moist! They are topped with the same things that go on a Reuben Sandwich.... but to me... the thing that really makes this burger great... is the filling inside! We make a big batch of these up and freeze them on a baking sheet, bag them up in zipper bags, and store in the freezer... Then when we...

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 12

BURGERS WITH FILLING
3 1/2 lb ground beef (lean)
1/2 tsp ground black pepper
4 slice swiss cheese pre-wrapped slices (cut into 4 squares)
1 can(s) (15 ounces) sauerkraut (drained and sqeezed)
1 bottle thousand island dressing
CHEESE TO MELT ON TOP OF BURGERS
8 slice deli sliced swiss cheese
BUNS
8 pumpernickel buns, rye buns (can use white buns too)
ADDITIONAL TOPPING
use left over sauerkaut and thousand island dressing to put on top of hamburgers

Steps:

  • 1. Separate the ground beef into 16 equal size balls. Flatten the balls out into about 4 inch patties. Cut the cheese slices into 4 small squares. Put 2 squares on top of each of 8 hamberger patties. On top of the cheese, put 1 Tablespoon of sauerkaut, and then up to 1 Tablespoon of the Thousand Island Dressing.
  • 2. Put the remaining 8 hamburger patties carefully on top of the ones with fillings. Press the patties together around the edges to create a seal.
  • 3. Fry in a large pan on medium-high. Sprinkle each hamburger patty with some black pepper. When burgers are done, top with swiss cheese, put 1 Tbs. water in pan and put lid on pan to melt the cheese. Place on buns and use sauerkraut and Thousand Island dressing to top. Serve right away!

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the burgers will be. Look for fresh, high-quality ground beef, sauerkraut, and Swiss cheese.
  • Season the beef patties well: Don't be afraid to season the beef patties liberally with salt and pepper. This will help to bring out the flavor of the meat.
  • Cook the beef patties to your desired doneness: If you like your burgers rare, cook them for 2-3 minutes per side. For medium-rare, cook them for 3-4 minutes per side. For medium, cook them for 4-5 minutes per side. And for well-done, cook them for 5-6 minutes per side.
  • Use a good quality sauerkraut: Not all sauerkraut is created equal. Look for a sauerkraut that is made with fresh cabbage and has a good, tangy flavor.
  • Don't overcook the sauerkraut: Overcooked sauerkraut will be mushy and bland. Cook it just long enough to heat it through, about 5-7 minutes.
  • Use a good quality Swiss cheese: Swiss cheese is a key ingredient in a Reuben burger. Look for a Swiss cheese that is flavorful and has a good melting quality.
  • Toast the buns: Toasting the buns will help to keep them from getting soggy. You can toast them in a toaster, on a grill, or in a pan with a little bit of butter.
  • Assemble the burgers: Once the beef patties, sauerkraut, and Swiss cheese are cooked, it's time to assemble the burgers. Place a beef patty on the bottom bun, top with sauerkraut, Swiss cheese, and the top bun. Serve immediately.

Conclusion:

Stuffed Reuben burgers are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for any occasion. They are packed with flavor and sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a new burger recipe, give stuffed Reuben burgers a try. You won't be disappointed.
