How to Make the Recipe
Let’s walk through the steps to make these Garlic Butter Beef Cheeseburger Rollups. It’s a breeze, I promise!
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spatula—about 7–8 minutes.
- Stir in Worcestershire sauce, onion powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix well and remove from heat. Let the beef mixture cool slightly.
- In a small bowl, combine melted butter with minced garlic. Stir well and set aside.
- Lay tortillas flat on a clean surface. Evenly distribute the beef mixture over each tortilla, then top with cheddar and mozzarella cheese.
- Roll each tortilla tightly, tucking in the sides to secure the filling. Place seam-side down on the baking sheet. Brush generously with the garlic butter.
- Bake for 12–15 minutes, until the roll-ups are golden and the cheese inside is melted and bubbly.
- Let cool slightly before slicing into pinwheels, if desired. Garnish with sliced pickles and serve warm.
Pro Tips for Making the Recipe
Here are a few tips to make sure your Garlic Butter Beef Cheeseburger Rollups turn out perfectly every time:
- Make sure to let the beef mixture cool slightly before assembling the roll-ups. This will help prevent the cheese from melting too early and make the rolling process easier.
- Don’t overfill the tortillas—leave a little room around the edges so the filling doesn’t ooze out during baking.
- For an extra crispy exterior, brush the tops with a little extra garlic butter before baking.
- Let the roll-ups cool for a few minutes before slicing. This will help them hold their shape better.
How to Serve
These Garlic Butter Beef Cheeseburger Rollups are delicious on their own, but they’re even better with a few sides to round out the meal. Here are some ideas:

Make Ahead and Storage
These Garlic Butter Beef Cheeseburger Rollups are best served fresh, but you can prepare the beef mixture and assemble the roll-ups ahead of time. Here’s how:
- Prepare the beef mixture up to a day in advance and store it in the refrigerator until you’re ready to assemble the roll-ups.
- Assemble the roll-ups and store them in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours before baking.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave until warmed through.
