Amazing Wagyu Burger Recipes

LE WAGYU BURGER

Steps:

• Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and saute until golden brown and caramelized, 5 to 6 minutes. Add the thyme and mix well. Set aside on low heat until ready to serve.
• Divide wagyu into 4 equal patties (see Cook's Note). Spread 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard on one side of each patty. Place the patties, mustard-side down, in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Cook until the mustard sides of the patties have cooked through and become a caramel brown color, then flip the patties over and cook until the centers of the patties have reached the ideal temperature for diners' tastes, using an instant-read thermometer. (Without a thermometer, a patty that is firm to the touch in the center but not tough and has a thin line of pink through the middle is around medium-well.) Remember, you still have to melt the cheese on top, so you may want to cook a little under your normal preference at this stage, because it will continue to cook while the cheese melts.
• Add 1 ounce (1/8 cup) sauteed onions to the top of each wagyu patty. Add 1 slice of Gruyere on top of each serving of onions. Cover the skillet for about 30 seconds to allow the steam to melt the cheese.
• Butter brioche buns and lightly toast using a separate skillet, if desired. Place a patty on each brioche bun. Serve with lettuce and tomato on the side for garnish, along with desired condiments.

Steps:

• Get your grill as hot as it can get. Divide each one pound roll into thirds (⅓ pound burgers). Roll them in your hand and press them into flat patties, about 5 inches in diameter. Make sure the middle is pressed in a little more to prevent the burgers from plumping.
• Right before you put the burgers on the grill, salt them generously and then pepper them on both sides.
• Place them evenly on the grill and close the lid. Let them cook for 5 minutes and then flip. As soon as you flip them, add your cheese. Let them cook for another 4-5 minutes.
• Pull them off and let them rest for about 5 minutes. Place a patty on its own bun, top with 2-3 slices of bacon, your other preferred toppings, and enjoy!
