Melt-in-Your-Mouth Cheesy Burgers Prepared in Half an Hour
In this article, we'll be sharing a mouth-watering recipe for Cheesy Patty Melts, created by Bill from the popular food blog, Beefbandits. This recipe is perfect for a crowd and can be made ahead, making it an ideal choice for your next gathering.
To start, gather the following ingredients:
- Four slices of 3/4 inch thick rye bread
- One large yellow onion, thinly sliced (or Sweet Vidalia onions for a milder flavour)
- Two tablespoons of unsalted butter
- One tablespoon of vegetable oil
- An 80/20 ground beef blend
- Four slices of Swiss cheese (approximately 1 oz each)
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- A dash of Worcestershire sauce
For caramelizing the onions, heat a medium-sized pan over medium-low heat. Add the vegetable oil and the sliced onions. Stir frequently, ensuring the onions cook evenly. If they start drying out, add a teaspoon of water to deglaze the pan.
While the onions are caramelizing, cook the ground beef in a separate pan. Season with kosher salt, freshly ground black pepper, and a dash of Worcestershire sauce to enhance the flavour.
Once the onions and beef are cooked, refrigerate them separately. When ready to serve, butter both sides of the bread, toast them in the pan, and then build the sandwich. Assemble the sandwich with a layer of beef, caramelized onions, cheese, and repeat.
Toast the sandwich again to melt the cheese and to get the bread extra crispy. For a final touch, serve your Cheesy Patty Melts with a big, crunchy dill pickle spear, salt-and-vinegar chips, creamy tomato soup, or crispy tater tots dipped in ranch.
If you're feeling adventurous, you can experiment with alternative cheeses such as sharp cheddar for extra tang or pepper jack if you like a little heat. Swiss cheese, Gruyère, or provolone can also be used as substitutes for Swiss cheese.
To store leftover Cheesy Patty Melts, let them cool completely, wrap tightly in foil, and refrigerate for up to 2 days. To reheat, toast them in a dry skillet over medium-low until the cheese gets gooey again.
