Get Creative Making Cheeseburgers at Home
To mark the day, many burger makers will use their creativity and culinary skills to make new variations on the traditional cheeseburger.
This usually involves using premium types of cheese, other meats, and a variety of unusual garnishes. Try out these interesting ideas for making a standard cheeseburger into something excessively delicious:
Cheddar Cheeseburgers with Fried Shallots and Slaw. This unique twist on a regular cheeseburger combines the tang of sharp cheddar cheese with vinegared-cabbage (made into slaw) and a delightful topping of crispy, fried shallot rings.
Poblano Pepper Jack Cheeseburgers. Heat things up a bit with a slice of pepper jack cheese and top with a pile of roasted poblano peppers. Yikes, that’s hot!
Reuben Cheeseburgers. Changing the cheese up to Swiss and adding Thousand Island dressing channels the vibes of a Reuben Sandwich. Of course, this concoction definitely needs to be served on a rye bun.
Bacon, Kimchi and American Cheeseburger. Inspired by a Shake Shack burger, this unique sandwich holds a couple of slices of bacon, a slice of American or cheddar, a dash of Indonesian chile sauce mixed with mayo, and a little pile of drained and chopped cabbage kimchi.
Do you love them? and do you get cheese on your burger every time you eat one?
I stay away from the processed American cheese which most establishments us. But I will have one if it is the real cheese.
