Burger season is here!

These portobello burgers are marinated and grilled until tender, smoky and charred. They’re topped with havarti cheese and served with my howsweeteats house sauce. Lettuce, tomato, bun, done!

I’m on a major sandwich kick right now! Just in time for memorial day weekend and the start of summer. If you don’t feel like making my pimento cheese grilled chicken sandwiches, go for the meatless version!

Mushrooms burgers take on the flavor of whatever ingredients they’re paired with. Marinating them gives them a big tangy boost and when they are drizzle with my house sauce… oooooh eeeee. 

Best meal ever.

The burgers are ridiculously satisfying and smooth. You can make them into slider sized burgers or use the large portobellos like I show here.

Over a decade ago I had a huge infatuation with portobello burgers. I discovered them and absolutely fell head over heels

I love the flavor, the texture – everything!

Then, I got more into bean-based burgers. These veggie burgers are out of this world. The best I’ve ever had!

And just recently, I shared my black bean smashburgers. Oh my gosh. The next level was unlocked… those are crispy, crunchy, satisfying and taste amazing. 

Originally, I wanted to make portobello smashburgers. I tried a few times and it just didn’t give me the result I was craving – those crispy edges, that paper thin burger, the texture I love.  (more…)

This black bean burger is super flavorful and crisp with the crunchiest edges. It’s smothered in cheese and served with lettuce, tomato and my signature house sauce for the ultimate smash burger… made with beans! 

I’m in lust.

Oh my gosh. 

This burger is my new favorite thing, EVER.

And that’s saying a lot, because I have an excellent veggie burger recipe already. I also have a fabulous baked black bean burger in Everyday Dinners!

But I’m quite partial to smashburgers – I just can’t help it. I love them because they are such thin, skinny patties! I don’t like to eat thick burgers – it reminds me of eating a meatball or something. Just on a bun.

So smashburgers it is. For me, forever. 

It’s just going to be that way always.

This is how they come together!

First, I drain and rinse a can of black beans, then smash them with a fork. I like to smash them with the fork so some pieces remain whole but others are smashed – leading to excellent texture. 

Spices come next! Smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt and pepper, some dried thyme… these are my favorites. I love the flavor combo they create. 

Then, those extra ingredients to bind everything together. Some seasoned bread crumbs, a beaten egg. Cheese!! A little goes a long way. You can also add some diced shallots or peppers if you wish!

I use my hands to bring everything together, and just like ground beef, I divide the mixture into four equal portions. And I form them into balls, because this makes the entire smashing process easier. 

Next, the smashing! A hot cast iron skillet, some avocado oil – and smash. I press one of the burgers into the skillet, then use the back of a glass to smash it into the skillet, pressing it into the thinnest patty that I can!

Once the burgers are cooked on both sides, I add on some cheddar cheese. The rest is easy: brioche or potato buns, lettuce, tomato and house sauce

Or anything else you love on your burger.  (more…)
