Instructions
Prepare the Burger Patties 🥩
-
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, Worcestershire sauce, steak seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
-
Mix gently with your hands until everything is well combined, being careful not to overmix to keep the patties tender.
-
Divide the mixture into four equal portions and form into patties about ¾ inch thick. Make a small indentation in the center of each patty with your thumb to prevent puffing during cooking.
Caramelize the Onions & Cook the Mushrooms 🍄🧅
-
In a large skillet, heat the butter and olive oil over medium heat.
-
Add the sliced onions and mushrooms (if using), and cook for about 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onions are golden and caramelized and the mushrooms are tender. Set aside.
Grill the Patties 🔥
-
Preheat a grill or stovetop skillet over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates or skillet.
-
Place the burger patties on the grill and cook for 4-5 minutes per side for medium doneness, or until they reach an internal temperature of 160°F.
-
During the last minute of cooking, add a slice of cheese to each patty and cover to melt the cheese.
Toast the Buns 🥯
-
While the patties are cooking, lightly toast the buns on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.
Assemble the Steakhouse Burgers 🍔
-
Spread a generous amount of steakhouse sauce on the bottom half of each toasted bun.
-
Place a lettuce leaf and a tomato slice on top.
-
Add the cheesy burger patty, then top with caramelized onions and mushrooms.
-
Add pickles, if desired, and top with the other half of the bun.
Serve & Enjoy! 🎉
-
Serve immediately with your favorite sides, such as fries, sweet potato wedges, or a crisp salad.
-
Dig in and enjoy the hearty steakhouse flavors!
