Do Not Like Mini-Cheeseburgers...am I the Only One?

[jrstephens]

i just think they would be bland with so few ingredients. but i guess i should TRY them THEN form my opinion

or u could just assume my opinion of them being bland is right !

I made them yesterday for the family and they were a big hit! However, I don't think it would be a good demo recipe because there is a lot of fat to drain off and it does "look" bad but when you put it all together it rocks! Oh, I doubled the garlic and it was tasty!

 

[ChefGwendolyn]

I used some of the italian seasoning and some pressed garlic. YUMMMO!!!

I thought these were really good. If any of you are familiar with White Castle, these taste totally like Sliders.I will definitely make these again.

I'm making these tonight for dinner. All I can say is, it looks like a lot more trouble than regular cheeseburgers!
I'm just wanting to try the cute "mini" of it all.

Thanks for the turkey baster tip!

I'm so glad I saw this thread and I'm not the only one who's not crazy about them. I tried this recipe and I used turkey meat. It shrunk and the juices were up to the top of the bar pan. I was afraid that I wouls spill it when taking the bar pan out of the oven. I would not make this recipe at a show.

not sure that they'd be good with a wine tasting.
they were ok, I used the crushed peppercorn rub and red onion. next time i might use ground bison
wouldn't offer it as a show recipe

Wow, this is a dangerous recipe, trying to even lift that shallow bar pan out of the oven with the hot juices so close to the top of the edge of it. I almost burned myself and spilled it.


I 'm a natural klutz, so I knew not to even try draining it. The turkey baster idea worked great - thanks again!

There was too much clean up for just tasting like regular cheeseburgers, too. Cutting the buns on a cutting board, cleaning the bar pan, chopper, garlic press, all of it....I'll take cheeseburgers on the grill any day.

I don't think I'll do them for a show; but made them for my dd's birthday yesterday & everyone loved them. I let the pan sit for a few minutes before dumping the juices. The baster would be a good idea.

YUCK, I hated them, we made them last week.

 

[baychef]

Not my favorite. I am not a big burger fan and I love onions but I am getting to that "wonderful" age where some foods don't like me!!!

They are not for me and I am not offering them as a demo. Frankly, other than the sweet things I have tried I am not finding as many recipes in this SB as I did the summer one that I like.

We made them at my cluster meeting, and I've made them once at home for dinner. I have to say that I absolutely love them! I was a little surprised at how much liquid there was in the pan when I took them out of the oven. I just poured it in the batter bowl and continued with the recipe. I agree that the meat doesn't look all that great when it comes out of the oven, but I think the finished product is worth it. My BF and I absolutely LOVE Krystal, and I've been advertising these as a healthier way to make Krystals at home. They taste just like them to me, and you're controlling what you're putting in the food. I've had several people interested in the new SB just for this recipe.

If I made them, I would only use turkey. Less fat and less liquid. Can't you just serve them with sliced tomatoes, onions, lettuce, and pickles? I'd also add a little PC seasoning mix to the meat. I might just have to make these. I think this is the type of recipe that you have to "play" with to make it just right.
