Cheeseburger Mini Pies

Happy National Cheeseburger Day!

To celebrate I made these adorable and downright delicious Cheeseburger Mini Pies from Paula Deen’s son, Jamie’s recipe. This recipe is a fun take on a classic cheeseburger patty but baked in puff pastry dough instead of served on a traditional bun. It’s just as tasty as the original -or maybe even better!

Cheeseburger Mini Pies

Makes 5 burger pies

Ingredients

1 pound lean ground beef
1/2 cup sweet onions preferably Vidalia onion
1 tablespoon steak seasoning recommended: Montreal
1 tablespoon steak seasoning sauce recommended: Dale's Steak Seasoning Sauce
5 slices Cheddar cheese
1 sheet frozen puff pastry dough thawed for 20 minutes
1 egg yolk

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
Mix the ground beef, onion, steak seasoning, and seasoning sauce together (using your hands is the most efficient way to do this).
Form into 5 small flat patties.
Cook the hamburgers to medium-well.
Top each burger with a slice of cheese and remove from heat.
Roll the puff pastry sheet to flatten slightly.
Cut it into 5 rectangles.
Cover each burger with a piece of puff pastry and wrap it around the bottom, pinching all of the edges to seal.
Place on an ungreased baking sheet, pinched side down.
Whisk together the egg yolk and 1 teaspoon water to make an egg wash.
Brush each wrapped pastry with the egg wash.
Bake for about 15 minutes, until the puff pastry is nice and brown.
Serve warm with a side of fries and baked beans.

Notes

Recipe courtesy of Paula Deen, 2007

Mix the ground beef, onion, steak seasoning, and seasoning sauce together.

The easiest way is with your hands.

Some of my favorite seasonings {and the Deen family’s too} are Dale’s Seasoning Sauce and Montreal Steak seasoning blend.

Form into 5 small flat patties.

For the burgers I like to use a grill pan but you can also use a skillet or outside grill.

Cook the hamburgers to medium-well.

Top each burger with a slice of cheese.

Remove from heat.

Roll the slightly thawed puff pastry sheet to flatten slightly.

Cut it into 5 rectangles.

Cover each burger with a piece of puff pastry and wrap it around the bottom.

Pinch all of the edges to seal.

Place on an ungreased baking sheet, pinched side down.

Whisk together the egg yolk and 1 teaspoon water to make an egg wash.

Brush each wrapped pastry with the egg wash.

Bake for about 15 minutes, until the puff pastry is nice and brown.

Serve warm with a side of fries and baked beans.

Hope you enjoy these Cheeseburger Mini Pies on National Cheeseburger Day

{or any day for that matter}!

Gourmet Steak Burgers with Bacon Jam and Fried Egg

Nicole Hood — Tue, 13 May 2014 13:52:00 +0000

Here is my final recipe in the Saucy Mama Recipe Contest.

What a blast I’ve had trying out their six new gourmet sauces!

For the final recipe I knew I wanted to make a burger. But not just any burger….a Gourmet Steak Burger made with Kobe beef and topped with Balsamic Bacon Jam, Havarti Cheese, and a Fried Egg.

Enter to win a Saucy Mama Gourmet Sauce Pack below!

Gourmet Steak Burgers with Bacon Jam and Fried Egg

Makes 2 servings

Ingredients

1 lb ground Kobe or type steak beef
2 slices Havarti cheese
2 eggs
1/4 cup Saucy Mama Four Leaf Balsamic Vinaigrette
1/4 cup Balsamic Bacon Jam
2 Brioche Rolls sliced
salt/pepper to taste

Instructions

Heat grill over medium.
Form ground beef into two thick burger patties.
Pour 1/4 cup Saucy Mama Four Leaf Balsamic Vinaigrette in a bowl and brush some on the burgers.
Place patties on grill and cook until at desired temp, basting again with Vinaigrette on the other side.
Since these are thick burgers I grill for about 8 minutes on each side until about medium temp.
Top with a slice of cheese on each patty during the last minute or two of grilling.
Bring burgers inside, covered and let rest for a moment.
Meanwhile cook 2 eggs, sunny side up adding salt and pepper on top to taste. (You can use a biscuit or round cookie cutter to get a perfectly round egg)
To assemble burgers: place cheeseburger patty on bottom sliced Brioche bun, top with 2 tbsp of Balsamic Bacon Jam, and then fried egg, and finally the top bun.
Bring your appetite and serve warm with Buffalo Blue Cheese Grilled Corn on the Cob on the side.

I used Saucy Mama Four Leaf Balsamic Vinaigrette twice in this recipe.

Once for basting the burgers on both sides and then again in the Balsamic Bacon Jam.

I used ground Kobe Beef for these gourmet burgers. Any good quality ground steak will work but make sure it has some fat so it will still be juicy.

Form the ground beef into two large 1/2 lb patties. Brush with Balsamic Vinaigrette.

Place on grill over medium heat and cook about 8 minutes on each side, basting again with the Vinaigrette.

Dad, the King of the Grill, cooking the burgers and corn like a pro!

My Dad sprays water on the grill to keep the fire down and create steam.

Top the burgers each with a slice of Havarti cheese during the last minute or two of grilling.

Meanwhile, cook two eggs sunny side up and season with salt and pepper. You can shape into a perfect circle using a round cooking cutter if you’d like.

I use bakery fresh Brioche (or similar egg bread) for these gourmet burgers.

Place cheeseburger patties on the sliced Brioche buns then top with a couple tbsp of Balsamic Bacon Jam.

Top with a sunny side up fried egg.

Seriously, the BEST burger ever!

Messy but good!

Ashton loved the Gourmet burger just as much as I did! We served it with Mom’s Baked Beans and Buffalo Blue Cheese Grilled Corn on the Cob.
