Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Burger Patties

    In a large bowl, mix ground beef with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Form into 4 equal patties.

  2. 2

    Make the Beer Batter

    In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, beer, baking powder, and salt until smooth. Let it sit for 10 minutes.

  3. 3

    Heat the Oil

    In a deep fryer or large pot, heat oil to 350°F (175°C).

  4. 4

    Fry the Patties

    Dip each burger patty into the beer batter, allowing excess to drip off. Carefully place in hot oil and fry until golden brown, about 4-5 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  5. 5

    Prepare the Buffalo Sauce

    In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Stir in the hot sauce and garlic powder until well combined. Remove from heat.

  6. 6

    Coat the Burgers

    Toss the fried burger patties in the buffalo sauce until evenly coated.

  7. 7

    Assemble the Burgers

    Place a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each burger bun, add a buffalo burger patty, a slice of cheddar cheese, and a slice of tomato. Top with the other half of the bun.
