Gluten Free Aussie Burger Cheat and Bean Pie

 

I call this a Cheat because we have found an amiable Angus burger that is PRE-COOKED. Sorry for screaming I just wanted to shout it out! It is that Good! They are found in Costco. Often featured in the coupon book for a few bucks off, at full price $14.99 gets you 12 burgers. When I think of microwaved Burgers I envision cafeteria burgers, hard and dry...or little twin White Castles purchased in a moment of insanity as an ode to my days in Nashville.

They are neither of the above, these are Grown Up, Seasoned Juicy Angus Burgers. Did I mention they were GOOD! Thanks to the little Sample Ladies at the local Costco, I am hooked! Hi Y'all. One more thing..they are Gluten Free!

Gluten Free Burgers often leave two choices, protein style which usually equals Lettuce Wrapped or a Gluten free Bun..your choice. I personally prefer the Bun..it's a mental thing. But my husband prefers the Lettuce Wrap approach. For the Aussie style it is a thick and busy concoction, so you may have to settle for a knife and fork. In the end how you get it in, is your business!

2 Angus Patties

1 sweet onion, sliced

2 eggs

2 slices Canadian bacon

2 slices Cheese..I prefer Smoked Cheddar

Organic Ketchup

Brown Deli Mustard

Claussen Kosher Dill Pickles Slices

Gluten Free Buns (optional)

1 Bottle Gluten Free Beer (purely optional) But recommended.

Salt and Pepper

2 Tbsp Canola Oil

1. Heat Burgers according to box..ok Nuk'em for 1-2minutes or throw on grill. (If you want to cook your own I recommend seasoning with a Steak seasoning, pan fry, and add a shot of beer to de-glaze pan in the last minute of cooking.)
2. Heat 1tbsp oil in skillet on Medium. Add onions and season with a little Salt and Pepper. As they Soften add ¼ Cup Beer. Cook until limp.
3. When onions are cooked, set aside and wipe out skillet. Add rest of oil, Fry egg Sunny Side up. Flip and set aside, In same pan heat Canadian Bacon, lastly in same pan fry Pineapple for 20-30 seconds on each side.
4. Step 4 is optional. Toss drained beetroot into processor and pulse to make it spreadable. Or just drain and use sliced.
5. Now depending on your choice of either Bun or Lettuce....Lettuce, Beef, Cheese, Beet, Egg, Ham, Pineapple Condiments, Wrap it..or Bun, Condiments, Beef, Cheese, Egg, Beet, Pickle, Bacon, Pineapple, Bun! Lots of Napkins!
