3 Tips to Make Juicy Prime Rib Beef Steakburgers

3 Tips to Try When Making Prime Rib Beef Steakburgers

Understanding the different beef cuts helps people choose the best one for a particular dish, as discussed in depth by Escoffier. Due to its significant marbling and tender texture, rib meat is a flavorful choice for steakburgers! Here are 3 more tips that may help you realize the delicious potential of prime rib beef steakburgers:

1. Take a minimalist approach. Given the intensity of beef flavor associated with this particular cut of meat, consider starting with just a few additional ingredients. While other meats may need additional fat or the boost of seasonings, sometimes a simpler approach to steakburger preparation is the best way to make these burgers shine! This strategy may also help prevent overhandling the burger mixture prior to cooking, which can result in dryness.

2. Grind your own meat. Packed ground beef may offer convenience, but freshly ground meat is often a better choice for both flavor and texture. For the nitty-gritty of grinding, check out the various methods and results of their use, as shared at Serious Eats.

3. Chill the steakburger patties before cooking! According to Food & Wine, chilling burgers helps ensure that the outside of the patties becomes crisp and brown during cooking while keeping the juiciness inside. Consider the thickness of your prime rib beef steakburgers to help determine when and for how long you chill them.

Exploring the Craveability of Freddy’s Prime Rib Steakburger

One of our latest steakburger additions to our regular menu was once a limited-time special. As always, our guests matter at Freddy’s, so when they shared such enthusiasm for the Prime Rib Steakburger, we brought it back! Aside from its thinly-sliced prime rib and premium steakburger patties, the components of this delicious steakburger further contribute to its craveable flavor and may similarly be used to enhance your own homemade burgers! Although the standard burger components for our Prime Rib Steakburger are discussed here, remember when you next visit Freddy’s that our steakburgers are made-to-order. Whether you prefer a lettuce wrap to a bun or traditional mayonnaise instead of our aioli, we can adjust accordingly!

● Swiss cheese offers a slightly nutty flavor and melts nicely over the steakburger. While some cheeses may become greasy when they melt or just fall off the burger, Swiss cheese has better staying power. In our steakburger, it also provides a softer creaminess to complement other salty or earthy notes.

● Grilling onions makes them softer and slightly sweeter in comparison to the raw onion slices that often appear on burgers. This classic use provides a crispy bite that some burgers call for. However, grilling the onion adds hints of smokiness that echo those in the meat and their sweetness complements the rich savory notes of the steakburger.

● Mushrooms, specifically portobello mushrooms, are often used as a substitute for meat or to provide a meaty flavor to a dish. Consequently, their addition to the Prime Rib Steakburger further intensifies its savory complexity and the overall juiciness of the dish.

● Ketchup, mustard and mayonnaise are traditional burger condiments. However, other more unique spreads, such as garlic aioli, often provide additional depth to the overall taste of the dish. Aioli is similar to mayonnaise, as it is a rich, thicker sauce. While it is traditionally made with oil and garlic, other variations may use egg, which is why people may think of it as a garlic mayonnaise. In addition to its flavor, it helps keep the burger together and lends another creamy component to the steakburger.

● To catch juices from the meat, carry the condiments and contain the components used in a prime rib beef steakburger or any other burgers, a toasted bun is the way to go. In addition to the type of bun used, toasting the bun helps ensure that it can hold up to the moisture and weight of the components.

While these tips and ingredients support the scrumptiousness of steakburgers, your own pantry or fridge may also provide inspiration for delicious and unique burgers!
