O-EM-Geee. This gourmet burger recipe is LEGIT!!!

I don’t know about you but when it comes to baked beans, it’s always- every time- BUSH’SⓇ. We love ‘em. 

Raised by southerners, we ate baked beans all the time growing up… and still do to this day. If burgers or hot dogs are on the menu, BUSH’SⓇ Original Baked Beans are a MUST. It’s that classic flavor everybody loves.

And now that I think about it, maybe one of the reasons they go so well together is because savory loves sweet. 

These savory Mushroom Swiss Burgers love themselves some sweet BUSH’SⓇ Baked Beans. The perfect pair IMHO because they bring out the best in each other.

How to make a gourmet mushroom beef burger?

Okay, mushrooms. We love you. Mushrooms give that umami flavor and are amazing stuffed into a beef burger.

One thing to note about adding mushrooms to a burger is they provide moisture, but sometimes too much moisture which could cause your burger to fall apart!

Soooooo, to keep your burger juicy and packed with mushroom flavor, we recommend cooking the minced mushrooms before adding them to your burger patty for 3 reasons:

  • Cooking mushrooms removes the excess water
  • Packs even more mushrooms into each bite
  • And it also boosts the mushroom flavor

I know, I know. It’s an extra step but so worth it in the name of epic mushroom burgers!

Super Easy Burger Sauce Recipe

Because burger sauce takes this gourmet burger to the next level. Oh yes- it’s a must. You can make this sauce recipe your own– it’s really easy but so yum on top of this mushroom burger. 

  • ¼ cup mayo
  • ¼ cup ketchup
  • 2 tablespoons mustard
  • Add a dash of our burger seasonings if you wish or just keep it simple with the trio of condiments. 

I hope you enjoy this blended burger recipe with our favorite side, BUSH’SⓇ Original Baked Beans.

Mushroom Swiss Burger = the best gourmet burger recipe you’ve ever tasted. Complete with the best burger seasoning recipe and simple burger sauce for a juicy homemade mushroom beef burger! 


Scale

Ingredients

For mushroom-beef burger

  • 8 ounces mushrooms, minced (2 cups minced)
  • 1 teaspoon avocado oil
  • 1 pound 85-90% lean ground beef
  • 1 teaspoon burger seasonings, plus additional for cooking
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

For burger seasonings

  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper

For mushroom-swiss topping

  • 1 teaspoon avocado oil
  • 1 sweet yellow onion, thinly sliced
  • 8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
  • 4 slices Swiss cheese (thinly sliced)

Instructions

  1. In bowl of a food processor, pulse mushrooms until ground similar in size of beef. Remove any large pieces of mushrooms that didn’t get chopped. 
  2. In a large cast iron skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat and saute ground mushrooms to remove water; season mushrooms with a little salt and pepper to taste. Transfer to a large bowl to cool. 
  3. While mushrooms are cooling mix up burger seasonings in a small bowl. Alternatively, you can use your favorite premade burger seasoning. 
  4. Meanwhile, prepare the mushroom topping by heating oil over medium low heat and sauteing onions and mushrooms until onions are caramelized, about 20 minutes. 
  5. After minced mushrooms have cooled, add ground beef, burger seasonings, and Worcestershire to bowl. Gently mix ingredients together with hands taking care not to overwork the meat which can make burgers tough. 
  6. Form 4 hamburger patties, ensuring sides are even and press a slight indentation in the center of the burger to help burgers to cook evenly and not puff up in the middle. Sprinkle each burger patty with additional burger seasonings, just before grilling. 
  7. Heat grill or cast iron skillet. If cooking in skillet, add a little oil to pan and preheat over medium heat. Grill burgers until desired doneness is reached, should take a few minutes on each side. 
  8. When burgers are almost finished, top each with swiss cheese, mushrooms and onions. Enjoy mushroom swiss burger on a bun or wrapped in lettuce with favorite burger toppings.

    To be honest, my family and I are not big fans of burgers. But your recipe looks absolutely irresistible. I especially like that you can enjoy this any time of day.
    I’m planning to make these healthy mushroom burgers for our next friend’s gathering. It will be my first attempt at making burgers. The info you provide will help me a lot. Hope I won’t fail miserably. Dying to taste it.
    I’m so lucky to have stumbled across this great idea! Thank you for this Kristina. I really appreciate it. Look forward to your new recipes.
    p.s. I’d be so grateful if you’d share with me a few similar recipes for burgers.
