Assembly

Method

Burger Patties

  1. 1

    Prepare the Patties

    In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.

  2. 2

    Form the Patties

    Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape them into patties, slightly larger than the size of the buns as they will shrink while cooking.

Mushroom Jam

  1. 3

    Cook the Mushrooms and Onion

    In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the finely chopped mushrooms and onion, sautéing until the mushrooms release their moisture and the mixture is golden brown, about 10 minutes.

  2. 4

    Add Seasoning

    Stir in the brown sugar, balsamic vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens and becomes jam-like.

Cooking the Patties

  1. 5

    Cook the Patties

    Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the burger patties for about 4-5 minutes on one side, then flip them. Place a slice of Swiss cheese on each patty and cook for another 4-5 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the patties reach your desired doneness.

Assembly

  1. 6

    Prepare the Buns

    Toast the burger buns lightly on the grill or skillet until golden brown.

  2. 7

    Assemble the Burgers

    Spread mayonnaise (if using) on the bottom half of each bun. Place a lettuce leaf, followed by a slice of tomato, and then the cooked patty with melted Swiss cheese. Top with a generous spoonful of mushroom jam and finish with the top half of the bun.
