Waffle House Patty Melt Recipe
Waffle House is one of my favorite places and some of the best burgers out there! I’ve always wanted to try their patty melts and I’m happy to say that I am finally giving it a try! I actually saw this during a conference, but couldn’t remember the name of it. I’m not sure if there are other places around the United States that serve these burgers.
Ingredients
- 1 lb Ground beef
- 8 slices Rye bread or any sandwich bread
- 3/4 cup Onions
- 4 tbsp Unsalted butter or mayonnaise
- 1 tsp Black pepper
- 1 tsp Kosher salt
- 1 package Worcestershire sauce
- Freshly grated Swiss cheese
- Freshly grated Cheddar cheese
Instructions
- Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and cook for 20 minutes, until they are caramelized. Sprinkle ½ teaspoon of kosher salt on the mixture.
- Combine Worcestershire sauce, 1/2 tsp kosher salt, and 1 tsp black pepper with ground beef and mix well to season. Then, form thin patties from the ground beef.
- Cook patties for 5 minutes on each side in hot oil over high heat. Once the patties are cooked, drain excess oil from them using a paper towel.
- Put 1 teaspoon of butter on each slice of bread, and make sure to butter the outer side of the sandwiches.
- Place the butter-side down on the bread slices. Add a little cheese to the bread and top it with onions and cooked patties. Spread a little more cheese on top and cover with another piece of bread.
- Grill or cook the sandwiches on both sides for 3-5 minutes until they are completely toasted and the cheese has melted. Slice the sandwiches in half and serve.
