Description

This Swiss mushroom burger is a simple copycat recipe of Hardees famous sandwich made with canned mushroom soup, processed Swiss-style cheese, and ground beef.

Ingredients

1 (10 1/2 ounce) can condensed golden mushroom soup
1 (4 1/2 ounce) can sliced mushrooms, drained
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 pound ground beef
1/2 teaspoon monosodium glutamate (MSG)
1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
4 hamburger buns, split
4 slices of Swiss-style processed cheese

Directions

1 Make sauce: Mix together condensed soup, sliced mushrooms, and Worcestershire sauce in a saucepan over low heat; allow to simmer while you complete the remaining steps. Stir sauce occasionally.
2 Make burgers: Mix together ground beef, monosodium glutamate (MSG), seasoned salt, and black pepper in a large bowl until well combined. Form into 4 patties.
3 Heat a skillet over medium heat. Fry patties in the hot skillet until browned, about 5 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of a patty should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C) for medium doneness.
4 Place a patty onto each hamburger bun bottom, then top with cheese. Spoon 1 to 2 tablespoons sauce over cheese; cover with bun tops to serve.
