Butter Burgers

Do you ever watch Guy Fieri of Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives?  I saw his Butter Burgers and just had to try it!  Oh, My Word!  These are some of the tastiest burgers I have ever tried.  The only thing I did different was not serve it up on a bun because, well, you know…  Carbs are bad on my Keto journey!  Good thing I am able to make this work for me!  Funny thing is…  I don’t even miss the bun. Give this butter burgers recipe a try.

I started off making my own butter first.  I used four sticks of “real” butter and seasoned it with the most amazing flavors!  I did this a day in advance before making my butter burgers.  I’m not sure if the seasonings set in or not but it turned out fantastic!

Butter Burgers Recipe Ingredients and Instructions:

Seasoned Butter Compound Ingredients

  • 4 sticks of real butter (salted)
  • 1.5 tsps fresh basil, minced
  • 1.5 tsps fresh parsley, minced
  • 1.5 tsps fresh tarragon, minced
  • pinch of cayenne pepper
  • 2 tsps garlic, minced
  • Salt and pepper

Garlic Aioli Recipe Ingredients

  • 1 cup real mayonnaise
  • 1 tbs fresh lime juice
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • .25 tsp cayenne pepper
  • .25 tsp ground cumin spice
  • 11 garlic cloves, roasted

Burgers Ingredients

  • 2 pounds of 80/20 ground beef
  • 4 slices of your favorite cheese
  • (No hamburger buns for me on Keto)

 

Butter Burgers Recipe Instructions

  1. First, make the butter compound ahead of time.  Mix all the prepared butter compound ingredients together in a bowl until it is well combined.
  2. Spoon the softened mixture in a log shape in a long sheet of plastic wrap.
  3. Close the butter compound up by rolling the ends together and twisting the edges to create a butter log.
  4. Refrigerate for a few hours until it hardens.  I left mine overnight.
  5. Next, you will need to create the Roasted Garlic Aioli.  YUM!
  6. I purchased already roasted garlic cloves for this but you can roast your own in the oven too.
  7. Combine all the Garlic Aioli ingredients in a food processor and blend it on high until all the ingredients become smooth.
  8. Now, separate the 80/20 ground beef into 4 separate hamburger patties.
  9. Place a large slice of the seasoned compound butter inside each of the burgers (as shown in the photos below).
  10. I love to use a cast iron skillet to cook these burgers up because the beef tastes absolutely amazing (yes, there is a difference).  Place another large slice of seasoned compound butter on the top of each burger while it’s cooking.
  11. Once the burgers are done, add a slice of your favorite cheese on top. Add a dollop of the Roasted Garlic Aioli on top and serve it warm!
    YUMMY!

  2. Shauna M. says:

    The recipe calls for 2 pounds of ground beef to make 4 patties–Your photos show 5. Is the recipe intended to make 4-1/2 lb. patties?

  3. I am also doing Keto. Would you happen to have the nutrional info on the butter burgers? They look amazing and can’t wait to try them. My mouth is watering for them.

    1. It is a very high caloric meal, but according to supertracker.usda.gov it is only 3 nc per burger.
