HOUSTON'S RESTAURANT COPYCAT VEGGIE BURGERS



Houston's Restaurant Copycat Veggie Burgers image

This is a recipe I am slowly trying to clone. So far, this is the closest I've come. I'm not so sure Houston's uses an egg white, but I added one to help bind the mixture together. Also, the cheese is optional. Houston's definitely grills their buns in butter, so that's probably another reason why their burgers are so good. If you try this and have any tips for me, please let me know. Thanks!! P.S. Thanks for the reviews. I don't have premium (yet) and can't email you all thank yous, but I'm reading the reviews and appreciate the input.

HOUSTON'S WE HAVE A VEGGIE BURGER



Houston's We Have a Veggie Burger image

If you're a vegetarian, this is hands-down the best burger you'll have. Even meat eaters order this one at Houston's. The best thing about this burger is that it doesn't taste like a burger (I hate anything pretending to be meat), and it also doesn't taste like oats or bread between a bun. (Like so many other veggie burgers). This is not an exact recipe, but it's a version of what our chef friend from Houston's gave us. We have tweaked it to the recipe listed here using all of the Houston's ingredients. Careful with the Jalapeños or it can get way too spicy. Caution with the prunes too, or it can end up tasting like jam which is just gross. As for the glaze, we tend to wing it every time so if anyone has the units for this, let us know. The cooking time and temp is also something we just watch for each batch. So basically, these are delicious but still in progress. There is no egg in their recipe!

THE BEST VEGGIE BURGER



The Best Veggie Burger image

These veggie burgers are hearty, savory, and rich in meaty flavor, thanks to cremini mushrooms, rice, black beans, and walnuts. Your family may think you made them with real meat! The texture is a little softer than a beef patty, but a wonderful contrast to the beautiful, pan-fried crust that really stands up to the bun and toppings.

Categories     Veggie Burgers

Time 1h20m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 (16 ounce) package cremini mushrooms, cut in half
½ small onion, chopped
3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1 (15 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 (8.8 ounce) pouch cooked brown rice, cooled
½ cup walnuts
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon ketchup
2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon chili powder
½ teaspoon kosher salt, or more to taste
½ teaspoon ground black pepper, or more to taste
1 large egg
¾ cup dry bread crumbs
8 slices Muenster cheese
8 (2 ounce) hamburger buns, split and toasted

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil.
  • Place mushrooms and onion on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon oil and toss to coat.
  • Roast in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Reduce heat to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C) and add black beans to the pan. Cook until mushrooms and onions are browned and beans are dried on the surface, about 5 more minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and let mixture cool for 10 minutes.
  • Transfer mixture to a food processor. Add rice and walnuts and pulse until roughly chopped. Add Worcestershire sauce, ketchup, soy sauce, garlic powder, paprika, chili powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and pulse until just combined. Add egg and pulse until just combined.
  • Transfer mixture to a medium bowl and fold in bread crumbs until well mixed. Chill for 10 minutes.
  • Form mixture into 8 patties and season each with salt and pepper.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet. Add 4 patties and cook, undisturbed, until browned and a nice crust has formed, about 4 minutes. Flip and cook until done, 4 to 5 more minutes. Top with Muenster cheese and place on toasted buns.
  • Add remaining 1 tablespoon oil to the skillet and repeat to cook remaining patties.

Tips:

- Dry your veggies well before cooking: This will help them crisp up better and avoid soggy burgers. Using a paper towel or a salad spinner to remove excess moisture. - Use a food processor to pulse the vegetables until they are finely chopped: This will ensure that they bind together well and make for a more cohesive burger. - Be careful not to overmix the veggie burger mixture: Overmixing can make the burgers tough and dense. Mix just until the ingredients are combined. - Use a burger patty mold or a simple spoon to shape the veggie burgers: If you don't have a burger patty mold, you can use a large spoon to scoop the mixture into patties. - Pan-fry the veggie burgers over medium heat: This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from burning. Make sure to preheat the oil before adding the burgers. - Press down on the veggie burgers with a spatula while cooking: This will help them cook more evenly and prevent them from falling apart. - Cook the veggie burgers until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside and cooked through in the center: This will take about 3-4 minutes per side. - Serve the veggie burgers immediately with your favorite toppings: Enjoy them on a bun with lettuce, tomato, and onion, or with a side of fries or salad.
