Tips & Tricks

  1. Avoid using canned mushrooms as they can ruin the flavor and texture of the burger.

  2. You can adjust the amount of cayenne in the cheese sauce to suit your heat preference.

  3. Hawaiian rolls add a sweet contrast to the savory elements, but you can substitute with other buns if preferred.

FAQS

  1. Can I use a different type of cheese?

    Yes, you can substitute Cabot Horseradish Cheddar with another cheddar or a cheese of your choice, but the horseradish flavor adds a unique touch.

  2. Can I grill the burger patties instead of cooking them in a pan?

    Absolutely! Grilling the patties will add a smoky flavor that complements the other ingredients.

  3. What can I use instead of Hawaiian rolls?

    You can use brioche buns, potato rolls, or any other type of burger bun you prefer.

  4. Can I make the cheese sauce ahead of time?

    Yes, but reheat it gently over low heat and stir well before serving to maintain its creamy texture.

  5. Is there a vegetarian version of this recipe?

    You can omit the bacon and use a plant-based patty to make a vegetarian version of this burger.
