Auntie Emilys Kitchen-Almost Shack Stack

"Almost" Shack Stack Burger

Best part about making a burger at home is that you can add anything you want to it. I added bacon to my burger! You can also consider adding pickles, jalapenos, relish, or an egg.
But in all seriousness, this burger is already pretty loaded and very yummy!
I am definitely a meat lover, but I would be pretty happy eating it without the beef too!

  • At this point, you may want to start steps 1 and 2 for the beef patty so that everything can be hot when you put the burger together
  • Prepare oil for deep-frying. Fry at 150˚C or 300˚F for 3-5 min or until lightly golden. Rest on cooling rack

  • At this point, you can start Step 3 for the beef patty
  • Increase oil temperature to 175˚C or 350˚F. Return the mushroom patty back into the oil for 1 minute or until golden colour. Frying it a second time will help the patty retain its crispiness
