Mushroom Swiss Burgers
Juicy beef burgers topped with sautéed mushrooms and melted Swiss cheese
By RecipesQueen Kitchen • June 10, 2026
The mushroom Swiss burger is a steakhouse classic — a thick, juicy beef patty topped with a pile of garlic-butter sautéed mushrooms and melted Swiss cheese.
Don't press the patties on the grill — that squeezes out all the juicy flavor.
Make a thumb indent in the center of each patty to prevent it from puffing up during cooking.
