Ingredients
Scale
For the Burger Patties
- 1 1/2 pounds ground beef (80/20)
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
For the Vegetables
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 green bell pepper, sliced
- 1 small yellow onion, sliced
- 8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
For Assembly
- 4 slices provolone cheese
- 4 burger buns, toasted
- Mayonnaise or preferred condiments (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Burger Mixture: In a large bowl, combine the ground beef with Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently until just combined to avoid overworking the meat. Form the mixture into 4 equal-sized patties, ensuring they are evenly shaped for uniform cooking.
- Cook the Burger Patties: Heat a skillet or grill over medium-high heat. Place the burger patties on the hot surface and cook for about 4–5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. Avoid pressing down on the patties to keep them juicy.
- Sauté the Vegetables: While the burgers are cooking, heat olive oil in a separate skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced green bell pepper, yellow onion, and mushrooms. Sauté them for 6–8 minutes until they are tender and slightly caramelized, enhancing their natural sweetness.
- Melt the Cheese: During the last minute of cooking the burgers, top each patty with a slice of provolone cheese. Cover the skillet with a lid or a piece of foil to help the cheese melt evenly and thoroughly.
- Assemble the Burgers: Spread mayonnaise or your chosen condiments on the toasted burger buns. Place the cheesy burger patties on the buns and top generously with the sautéed vegetables. Serve the burgers hot for the best flavor and texture experience.
Notes
- You can substitute ground sirloin for leaner burgers or use steak strips for a more traditional Philly cheesesteak experience.
- Add hot peppers or cheese sauce if you prefer a spicy kick.
