These burgers have a very gourmet taste, but come together quite simply.  We recommend grilling the burgers and mushrooms, but pan-frying will do the job too!

Course: Main Course
Cuisine: American
Servings: 4

Ingredients

  • 1 cup fresh mozzarella cheese cubed
  • 1/3 cup green onions diced
  • 1 1/2 lb ground veal can use ground round if you prefer
  • 2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 garlic clove minced
  • 1 tsp kosher salt

Instructions

  • In a small bowl, mix together the mozzarella cheese and green onion, set aside.   
  • Next, using your hands, mix together the veal, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, salt & pepper. Form into 8 equal-size patties and flatten.
  • Top four of the patties with the cheese mixture, then top each patty with another patty and crimp the edges together to keep the cheese in during grilling.
  • Combine the mayo, sage and mustard, set aside.
  • Place the mushrooms on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil.  Pour a small amount of olive oil in a bowl.  Using a brush, coat both sides of the mushrooms with oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • Grill the mushrooms for 10 - 15 minutes, until tender.  Grill the burgers to medium.
  • Place burgers and mushrooms on a sesame bun and serve with sauce.
