Butter burgers??

Skidder · 11-24-2012, 12:10 PM

Anyone ever done butter burgers? Saw it on tv last night. It looks like a cardiologists dream.....or mine. So I am so having them for dinner tonight in moderation. Looks like it's a Wisconsin thing from what the show said. I think it was a burger with grilled onions and cheese on a toasted bun with a couple tablespoons of butter on the bun. Yeah dinner coming right up.

I'd check with Oldyote.

that's Culvers...started in Sauk City, WI (about a mile from my house)

they're good...but usually give me heartburn (and some clogged arteries)

I'm originally from Sheboygan, Wisconsin, ground zero for Johnsonville brats, the cube steak steak sandwich, the "hard roll" German-style bun and the butter burger. Not a huge secret to them, although I wouldn't worry too much about seasoning (other than S&P) or forming much of a crust. Slow cook 80/20 and assemble as you described!

That's right, it started in Wisconsin, but it's one of my favorite burger places. The butter is not in or on the meat...which is grilled on a skillet. The butter is put on the bun.

That's just what I saw. They looked fantastic. Buttery but fantastic!

Just sounds normal to me?

I put mayo on my burger rolls, so butter is really not a stretch.

Gnaws on Pigs · 11-24-2012, 01:42 PM

I pretty much always spread butter on the bun and toast it on the grill.

There is actually a Culver's about 15 miles from me. I've had their frozen custard, but not a butter-burger.

I'm craving a butter burger from Culver's right now!!! Of course with cheddar cheese and bacon.....side of cheese curds.

Form your burgers with a pat of butter in the middle. Makes for a juicy more flavorful burger.

Skidder · 11-24-2012, 03:19 PM

I just made two for dinner and WOW were they great but I woudn't or couldn't do them for a living. Delish yes healthy....well go with the name!

That's what I do as well. I just like the crispness it adds to the bun-didn't realize it had a special name!

No this is much different. There's much much more butter like dripping butter and then some!
