The Ultimate Steak Burger Recipe

If you’ve picked up a pack of our new 6oz Steak Burgers – either Cracked Black Pepper or Italian Seasoning, you’re already halfway to creating the perfect burger. Thick, juicy and made with lean steak cuts, these burgers deserve toppings and sides that do them justice.

Here’s how to build the ultimate burger – bold in flavour, big in size and guaranteed to satisfy.

Making The Perfect Steak Burger

1.Cook the burgers Preheat your grill or pan to a medium-high heat. Cook the steak burgers for around 5–6 minutes per side, depending on how “well done” you like them. Use a meat thermometer if needed.

2. Melt the cheese In the final minute of cooking, add a slice of cheese to each burger and cover loosely with a lid or foil to help it melt.

3. Toast the buns While the burgers are finishing, lightly toast the brioche buns on the grill or under a hot grill for extra texture and flavour.

4. Assemble your burgers Start with a layer of sauce on the bottom bun. Add lettuce, then the cheesy steak burger. Top with tomato, onion slices, and any extras like bacon or pickles. Finish with more sauce and the top half of the bun.

5. Serve immediately Pair with seasoned fries, sweet potato wedges, or a simple green salad.

Tips for Success

• Keep it simple: Let the quality of the steak burger shine. Don’t overload it with too many toppings.
• Rest before serving: Give burgers a minute or two to rest after cooking – this helps the juices redistribute.
• Flavour match: Use mature cheddar or smoky bacon with the Cracked Black Pepper burgers, and mozzarella or pesto mayo with the Italian Seasoning variety.

Whether you're serving guests or treating yourself to a gourmet night in, this ultimate burger recipe will turn a simple meal into a seriously satisfying feast.
