Best Texas Style Burgers Recipes

TEXAS ROADHOUSE STYLE BURGERS

Steps:

• 1. For this recipe I use my electric skillet. This way I can cook all 4 burgers at once, and they do not fall through the grill grate, and they will if you use this method.
• 2. On a plate fluff your freshly ground beef chuck.
• 3. Lightly salt and pepper your beef and fluff again-around 1/2 teaspoon each.
• 4. Divide your meat into 4 equal portions.
• 5. Carefully draw each patty together-it will look like a large meatball barely holding together.
• 6. Heat your electric skillet to 400 degrees.
• 7. Add oil and swish it around so the bottom of skillet is covered.
• 8. Carefully transfer each "meatball" to the hot skillet.
• 9. Take a spatula and place it on top of the first "meatball".
• 10. Using a CLEAN can press down hard to form your first patty.
• 11. Repeat with the other 3. These should be large rounds.
• 12. Cook for 4-5 minutes, then flip. You want a nice, brown crust. Not tan, brown.
• 13. Brush the tops of your burgers with BBQ sauce-be generous.
• 14. Cook for an additional 4 minutes.
• 15. Remove to a platter and now fry your buns.
• 16. When golden brown remove buns to plate.
• 17. Brush buns with remaining BBQ sauce.
• 18. On the bottom of the buns place a slice of cheese, then a burger patty, then your pickles, onions, tomato and top with 1/4 cup creamy slaw.
• 19. Top with bun and eat.
• 20. In order to eat these you will need to adopt the "lean" stance, regardless of whether you are standing or sitting. If you are standing lean out to take a bite, if sitting do the same. These are MESSY and JUICY and you will be wearing it if you do not "lean".
• 21. Serve with fries or onion rings.
