Mushroom Swiss Burger w/Gravy Mayo

Serve 4 (or 2 hungry bikers)

Oil or cooking spray

2 cups sliced mushrooms

1 onion, minced

1lb COLD, GOOD LEAN ground beef

1 tsp garlic, minced fine

½ tsp salt

¼ tsp black pepper

4 slices GOOD Swiss cheese

1 tbs Mayo

2 tbs sour cream

1 tsp brown gravy mix (you can use more to suit your taste)

Good quality bread buns

Romaine lettuce leaves

In a medium pan over medium heat, sauté onions in 1 tbsp oil until brown, remove from pan and set aside.

In the same pan add 1 tbsp oil and the mushrooms, cook till tender, remove from heat and set aside In a medium bowl, mix together cooked onions, garlic, salt, pepper and very cold ground beef.

Blend with your hands, making sure everything is well incorporated, but DO NOT OVER WORK OR IT WILL BECOME TOUGH

Meanwhile, mix the sour cream, mayo, and brown gravy together in a bowl, and refrigerate until ready to serve. Divide meat mix into 4 equal parts then each pat gently shape into patties, slightly thicker on the outside

Lightly brush the grill or pan with oil and heat to high – I mean really HOT

Place each patty on the grill or into the pan (you should heat a good sizzle sound if its hot enough) and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, then flip over and cook the other side for a couple of minutes cooking to the level you like

Just before they are done, spoon mushrooms on each burger and cover with a slice of swiss cheese

Allow it to begin melting but don’t over melt while in the pan or on the grill or the topping may slide off lol

Serve on toasted buns with gravy mayo and lettuce
