Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 pound (454 grams) ground beef
- 4 hamburger buns, toasted
Vegetables:
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 1 green bell pepper, diced
- 1 cup mushrooms, diced (optional)
Seasonings and Condiments:
- 2 tablespoons ketchup
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 4 slices provolone cheese
Instructions
- Preheat a spacious skillet to medium temperature and brown the ground beef thoroughly, eliminating any accumulated fat.
- Incorporate diced onions, crisp bell peppers, and sliced mushrooms, sautéing until vegetables become translucent and tender.
- Infuse the mixture with tangy ketchup, robust Worcestershire sauce, aromatic garlic powder, freshly ground black pepper, and a pinch of salt. Allow the flavors to meld and simmer for approximately 2-3 minutes.
- Strategically layer provolone cheese across the simmering beef mixture, creating a luxurious melted blanket that will seamlessly integrate with the savory filling.
- Gently toast hamburger buns until golden and crisp, providing a sturdy foundation for the hearty meat mixture.
- Generously spoon the cheese-infused beef mixture onto the prepared buns, ensuring an even distribution of ingredients for a perfect bite.
- Serve immediately while the cheese remains molten and the meat mixture retains its robust, steaming temperature.
Notes
- Choose lean ground beef to reduce excess grease and keep the dish lighter.
- Finely dice vegetables for even cooking and better texture integration.
- Consider using low-sodium Worcestershire sauce to control salt content for health-conscious eaters.
- Swap ground beef with ground turkey or plant-based crumbles for alternative protein options that work perfectly in this recipe.
