THE BEST "MINI BURGERS" YOU WILL EVER TASTE



The Best

These mini burgers are so good! The recipe comes from the Neely's. Everyone I have made these for starts craving them and wants more and more. Try these as the recipe is written for the best results and then change it up if desired. I have to tell you, I don't like mustard and I love cheese. This uses dijon mustard and does not have cheese. I even tried them with the cheese and didn't like them as well. Hope you enjoy!

Categories     appetizer

Time 1h10m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/2 cup ketchup
1/4 cup yellow mustard
1 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon Cajun seasoning
4 tablespoons grapeseed oil
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
12 slider buns
Twelve 3-ounce burger patties
Salt and pepper to taste
Salt and pepper to taste
12 slices American cheese
24 slices Roma tomato
3 cups shredded romaine lettuce

Steps:

  • For Paul's burger sauce: In a medium bowl, whisk together all of the sauce ingredients.
  • For the burgers: Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until almost smoking. Add about 1 tablespoon of oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter to the skillet. When the butter has melted, working in batches, open the buns and toast them in the skillet until they are golden brown.
  • Wipe out the skillet and reheat it over medium-high heat. Season the burger patties with salt and pepper. Working in batches and using more of the oil and butter, place some of the burger patties in the skillet (do not crowd the pan). Cook until the burgers are well seared (about 3 minutes) and flip. Place a slice of cheese on each burger and continue to cook the burgers for 2 minutes longer. Cover the skillet to melt the cheese and steam the burgers. Continue until all the burgers are cooked, adding more oil and butter to the skillet between batches as necessary.
  • Spread each side of the buns with about 2 teaspoons of Paul's burger sauce. Season the tomato slices with salt and pepper and place the tomatoes on the bottoms of the buns. Place the cooked burger patties on top of the tomatoes and then top the burgers with shredded lettuce. Secure the tops of the buns on the burgers with frilled toothpicks or small bamboo skewers.

MINI BURGER BUNS RECIPE BY TASTY



Mini Burger Buns Recipe by Tasty image

If you're looking to go the extra mile and make hamburger buns from scratch, try out this recipe! It's easy and the results are impressive. After the buns come out of the oven, we brush them with melted butter to make them even more delicious. We turned these into mini buns, but if you want to make regular-sizes buns, just divide the dough into 8 equal portions and bake for 15-18 minutes instead.

Provided by Katie Aubin

Categories     Appetizers

Time 2h10m

Yield 80 mini buns

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup lukewarm water
1 tablespoon active dry yeast
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
3 ½ cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
1 large egg
nonstick cooking spray, for greasing
3 tablespoons melted unsalted butter, for finishing

Steps:

  • Add the lukewarm water to a 2-cup liquid measuring cup or medium bowl. Add the yeast and sugar and stir to combine. Let sit for 5-10 minutes, until frothy and doubled in volume.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour and salt. Add the butter, egg, and the yeast mixture and stir with a rubber spatula into a shaggy dough.
  • Turn the dough out onto a clean surface and knead until smooth and soft, about 4 minutes. Place the dough in a clean large bowl lightly greased with nonstick spray and cover with a towel. Let rest until in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
  • Preheat the oven to 400°F ( 200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Lightly grease a clean surface and place the dough on top. Pat down with your hands to about ¼-inch thick. Use a ¾-inch (2-cm) round cutter to cut out small circles. Place on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Brush the tops of the buns with melted butter, then bake for 7-10 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.
  • Remove the buns from the oven and brush with more melted butter while they are still warm. Let cool for at least 5 minutes before serving.
  • Enjoy!

MINI MONSTER BURGERS



Mini monster burgers image

Bring burgers to life with these mini monsters! Perfect for Halloween or a kids party, they're easy to make and lots of fun

Provided by Cassie Best

Categories     Dinner

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 9

vegetable oil, for the baking tray
8 beef meatballs
8 small seeded rolls, split
1 Little Gem lettuce
2 slices cheddar
¼ small cucumber (about 4cm long)
16 cornichons
16 pimento-stuffed green olives
ketchup, to serve

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Line a baking tray with foil and drizzle with a little oil. Arrange the meatballs over the tray, spaced apart, and squash into flat patties using the palm of your hand. Turn the patties over and rub in the oil, then bake for 15 mins.
  • Meanwhile, top the base of each roll with a small lettuce leaf. Halve the cheese slices lengthways in a zig-zag to make 'teeth', then cut in half again crosswise so you have eight rows. Cut the cucumber into thin slices on the diagonal to make tongues. Push a cocktail stick into each of the cornichons, lengthways, to make the horns and halfway through the olives to create the effect of eyeballs on stalks.
  • Add a burger patty to each of the lettuce-lined buns, followed by a cucumber tongue, cheese teeth and drizzle of ketchup, then sandwich with the tops of the buns. Stick the olive eyes and cornichon horns into the tops of the buns.

Tips:

  • For perfectly cooked mini burgers, use an instant-read meat thermometer to ensure they reach an internal temperature of 160°F (70°C) for medium-rare or 165°F (74°C) for medium.
  • To add flavor and moisture to your mini burgers, mix ground beef with bread crumbs, milk, and an egg.
  • Don't overwork the ground beef mixture, as this can make the burgers tough.
  • Form the ground beef mixture into small, evenly sized patties. Make a small indentation in the center of each patty to help prevent them from puffing up while cooking.
  • Cook the mini burgers over medium heat to prevent them from burning.
  • Use a variety of toppings and condiments to create delicious and unique mini burgers.

Conclusion:

Mini burgers are a fun and easy way to enjoy a classic American dish. With endless possibilities for toppings and variations, they're sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering. So get creative and have fun with it!
