    Amazing Swiss Mushroom Burger

    When grilling season rolls around, I get so excited to make this grilled burger! Grilled burgers have so much flavor and a sear unlike any other. They’re perfect for backyard BBQ dinners and making everyone in the neighborhood jealous! 😉

    This mushroom burger recipe is the best of the best. Not only will everyone wonder what that amazing smell is, but every bite is irresistibly flavorful. Sauteed mushrooms and onions, Swiss cheese, and lean beef patties on brioche buns. It’s a burger dream come true!

    I also love smoking and two of our favorites are smoked brisket and smoked prime rib. They make for a fun and delicious get-together for family and friends.

    This was sooo good! I will keep this one! Thank you

    Mushroom Swiss Burgers FAQs

    What should I do if my burger is sticking to the pan or grill?

    If your burger sticks, it's not ready to flip yet. Give it another minute or so, then try flipping it again.

    Can I use a different cheese?

    Yes! Try a cheese-like Gruyere or White Cheddar to mix things up.

    Can I use lean ground beef?

    Yes! For leaner burgers, try a 90/10 mix instead of 80/20.

    Is this recipe keto-friendly?

    As long as you skip the bun, this grilled burger recipe is a perfect choice for a keto diet!

    Making Gluten-Free Burgers

    You can make the best mushroom Swiss burger completely gluten-free by making sure the Worcestershire sauce for the sauteed mushrooms and onions is gluten-free, and by using use gluten-free burger buns.

    Burger Temperature Chart

    For best results, I recommend always using a meat thermometer, and following my guide on How Long to Cook Burgers! This is the most useful tool for checking if your beef is done to your liking.

      Absolutely delicious swiss mushroom burger. I made this recipe but substituted little pub burgers on buttered slider buns by Pepperidge farms. Was so delicious.

      I always put my mushrooms under the cheese. It keeps them in place.

          I generally agree with the placement suggestion. Another idea is to make a simple Swiss cheese sauce and allow the guests to take as much of the mushrooms/onions and Swiss cheese sauce as they want before eating. This allows everyone to layer as they desire and have fun! No ketchup eaters with this recipe, though, right? I had a brother-in-law who put ketchup on EVERYTHING! Even ice cream, I swear. Thanks for posting!
