Ingredients
Scale
Main Protein:
- 1 pound ground beef
Cheese:
- 4 slices Swiss cheese
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Binding and Flavor Ingredients:
- 1 packet dry onion soup mix
- 1/4 cup breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup beef broth
- 4 hamburger buns
- Butter for toasting buns
Instructions
- Combine ground beef, onion soup mix, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, and beef broth in a mixing bowl, blending ingredients thoroughly until well incorporated.
- Shape the meat mixture into 4 evenly sized patties, ensuring uniform thickness for consistent cooking.
- Preheat grill or skillet to medium-high heat (around 375-400°F) for optimal burger searing.
- Cook patties for 4-5 minutes per side, achieving desired internal temperature and developing a rich caramelized exterior.
- During the final minute of cooking, drape a slice of Swiss cheese over each patty, allowing it to melt completely and become slightly bubbly.
- Lightly butter hamburger buns and toast them until golden brown and crisp around the edges.
- Transfer melted cheese-topped patties onto toasted buns, creating a savory and indulgent burger experience.
- Serve immediately while the burgers are hot and cheese remains gooey, ensuring maximum flavor and texture.
Notes
- Maximize flavor by using high-quality ground beef with at least 20% fat content for juicier burgers.
- Chill patties for 30 minutes before cooking to help them hold their shape and prevent crumbling on the grill.
- Caramelize additional fresh onions as a topping to enhance the French onion soup essence of the burger.
- For a gluten-free version, replace breadcrumbs with crushed pork rinds or almond flour to maintain the patty’s texture.
