For the Burger Patties

For the Mushroom Gravy
  • 2 tablespoons butter For sautéing the mushrooms.
  • 2 cups sliced fresh mushrooms Any type of mushrooms can work.
  • 2 ounces cream cheese For a creamy consistency.
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream To create a rich sauce.
  • 1/4 cup sour cream Adds tanginess to the gravy.
  • 1/2 cup gruyere cheese, shredded Can substitute with cheddar or mozzarella.
Seasonings
  • Garlic, onion powder, thyme, salt, and pepper to taste Adjust to personal preference.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Begin by shaping the ground beef into four large patties.
Cooking the Patties
  1. Heat a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Cook the patties for 5-7 minutes on each side until they are well-browned.
  3. Remove excess grease from the skillet to keep the dish from becoming too oily.
Preparing the Mushroom Gravy
  1. In a medium nonstick skillet, melt the butter and sauté the sliced mushrooms until they are golden brown.
  2. Add crushed garlic in the last minute of cooking for flavor.
  3. Stir in cream cheese, heavy cream, onion powder, thyme, salt, and pepper. Mix until all ingredients are well combined.
  4. Incorporate the shredded gruyere cheese until melted and smooth.
Combining and Serving
  1. Pour the creamy mushroom sauce over the burgers in the cast iron skillet.
  2. Heat everything through before serving.

Notes

Ensure not to overcook the patties to keep them juicy. Fresh herbs like parsley or thyme can be added for an extra flavor boost. For a thicker gravy, cook a bit longer after adding the cream cheese.
