Cheeseburgers and Steamed Buns image

My grandmother loved to go camping in the mountains. She would take us along with her. We were young and loved cheeseburgers! She made the most delicious cheeseburgers using a coleman gas grill, or if at home, using her stove. Everyone knows how to make cheeseburgers, but my grandmother had a special touch, making everything...

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 lb fresh angus hamburger, or, fresh ground chuck hamburger (do not use frozen patties)
1 or 2 pkg hamburger buns (amount depends on number of patties)
1 or 2 c mayonaise
1 or 2 whole tomatoes-diced
1 or 2 whole onions-diced
1 c mushrooms-diced
8 slice optional: bacon-cooked crisp, broken up or kept as slices
8 slice lettuce-one leaf for each cheeseburger
8 slice american cheese (one slice per patty)
Any other type of condiments: mustard, ketchup, etc.

Steps:

  • 1. Using fresh hamburger, season the meat the way you like, and then make as many patties as you may need. I usually make about eight round patties, and each one is about one-two inches thick, and about four inches diameter. Cook the hamburgers patties using skillet without a lid, or, if using a grill, on top of grill, using medium heat. Make sure hamburger meat is throughly cooked. Never smash down hamburger while cooking them, since this squeezes all the meat juices, making dry hamburgers. Add cheese to each hamburger. Optional: fry about eight bacon slices, and then place them on top of every cooked cheeseburger.
  • 2. Take hamburger buns out of plastic bag, and place bag aside for later use. Split open each hamburger bun, and sit the bottom bun on top of each cheeseburger-inside bun portion on top of cheeseburger. After that, the top half of bun-inside portion- sits on top of bottom bun. When finished, each cheeseburger has one bun sitting on top of each cheeseburger. Place a lid over cheeseburgers and buns (if using skillet), or shut the grill lid (if using grill)...add skillet to medium heat, or grill on medium heat (with lid closed)... for one minute or so..make certain to not overcook cheeseburgers. After about one minute, take off heat, and place every cheeseburger inside steamed buns..and then place every cheeseburger inside the bun plastic bag. Seal the end of plastic bag to hold in steam, keeping cheeseburgers and steamed buns warm.
  • 3. Sometimes I mix diced onions, diced tomatoes, mushrooms, real bacon bits, etc..to a bowl of mayonaise, and top the cheeseburger with a dab of it. Also, I like to spritz my lettuce lightly with water, and slightly freeze the lettuce, then top my cheeseburger with it, along with the mayonnaise mix.

I'm not a big fan of steamed buns, but these cheeseburgers were still really good.

The cheeseburgers were good, but the steamed buns were a bit too doughy for my taste.
