Directions
-
Mushrooms and Blue Cheese
-
Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add the oil and garlic and saute for 60 seconds, until fragrant but not brown. Add the mushrooms and saute for 2 to 3 minutes, until the mushrooms are nicely caramelized. Season with salt and pepper.
-
Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Season the sirloin with salt and pepper; form into 4 patties, being careful not to overwork the meat. Brush each patty with steak sauce. When the pan is hot, add the burgers and cook for 3 minutes on the first side, then flip. Add the blue cheese crumbles to the cooked side and continue grilling for another 2 to 3 minutes, until the patties are firm and the cheese has begun to melt.
-
Remove the burgers. While the pan is still hot, toast the rolls. Brush them with a bit more steak sauce if you like, then top each with a burger and mushrooms.
-
Chipotle and Bacon
-
Mix the mayo and chipotle pepper. Prepare and cook the burgers as above, omitting the steak sauce and subbing cheddar for the blue cheese. Spread the rolls with a bit of the mayo mixture, then top with the burgers, bacon and caramelized onions.
