Ingredients

For the Burgers:

  • 1.5 pounds lean ground beef
  • 1/2 cup Paisley Farm Organic Marinated Mushrooms
  • 1/3 cup green chilies chopped fine
  • 1/3 cup onions chopped
  • 1/2 cup seasoned bread crumbs
  • 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper
  • butter for frying

For the Cheese Sauce:

  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 3 teaspoons flour
  • dash of salt
  • 1/2 heaping cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  • Combine all burger ingredients (except butter) in a bowl. Form into 6 patties.
  • Melt butter in a skillet until hot. Place burgers in the skillet and cook for 7 minutes. Flip and cook for 7 minutes more. Burgers will be done, and will not be pink inside. Resist the urge to squeeze them down with your spatula. Keep the juices inside!
  • Use a meat thermometer to check if you are concerned. Ground beef isn’t truly done until it reached 156 degrees F. It’s not recommended eating rare ground beef, but I know many who love their burgers medium rare. Temperature scale: 120 degrees = Rare * 130 degrees = Medium-Rare * 140 degrees = Medium * 150 degrees = Medium Well * 160 degrees = Well Done
  • While the burgers are cooking, prepare your cheese sauce. In a saucepan over medium heat, add milk, salt and flour. Whisk until flour is incorporated and there are no lumps. Bring to a boil and then reduce heat to a simmer. Whisk for about 2-3 minutes or until liquid thickens. Remove from heat and add in pepper and cheese. Whisk until cheese is melted.
  • Place burger on roll or bun, top with cheese and serve. Add condiments of desired.
