Here’s a guide to a Tower Burger—a towering, indulgent burger stacked high with all your favorite fixings 🍔🧀🥓
🥘 Ingredients (serves 1–2, depending on size)
For the burger:
- 2–3 beef patties (4–6 oz each)
- Salt & pepper, to taste
- 2–3 slices of cheddar or American cheese
- 2–3 strips of cooked bacon
- Lettuce, tomato, onion slices
- Pickles (optional)
- Burger buns (classic or brioche)
Optional toppings:
- Sautéed mushrooms
- Avocado slices
- Fried egg
- Special sauces (mayo, ketchup, mustard, BBQ)
🥄 Instructions
- Cook the patties
- Season beef patties with salt and pepper.
- Cook on a skillet or grill over medium-high heat for 3–4 minutes per side, or until desired doneness.
- Add cheese on top of each patty near the end of cooking to melt.
- Toast the buns
- Lightly butter and toast the buns on the skillet or grill until golden.
- Assemble the tower
- Bottom bun → lettuce → tomato → first beef patty → cheese → bacon → second patty → more cheese → toppings → top bun.
- Repeat layers depending on how “tall” you want your burger.
- Serve
- Secure with skewers or long toothpicks if needed to hold layers together.
- Serve with fries, onion rings, or a side salad.
💡 Tips
- For extra flavor, mix seasonings like garlic powder or smoked paprika into the beef.
- Don’t overload the burger too much—otherwise it can fall apart while eating.
- Pressing down slightly while stacking helps keep layers together.
