Bavarian Burger Ingredients

Method

Bavarian Burger Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Burger Patties

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently until well combined, being careful not to overwork the meat. Shape the mixture into 4 equal patties.

  2. 2

    Grill the Patties

    Preheat your grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Lightly brush the grill with olive oil to prevent sticking. Place the burger patties on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. In the last minute of cooking, place a slice of Swiss cheese on each patty to melt.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Red Onion

    While the burgers are cooking, slice the red onion into thin rings. Set aside.

  4. 4

    Toast the Buns

    Cut the burger buns in half and toast them on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown, about 1-2 minutes.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Burgers

    Spread a tablespoon of Bavarian mustard on the bottom half of each toasted bun. Place a cheeseburger patty on top, followed by a generous scoop of sauerkraut and a few rings of red onion. Sprinkle fresh parsley on top for garnish, and cap with the top half of the bun.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve the Bavarian Burgers immediately with your choice of sides, such as fries or a salad.
