A spin on cheese slathered Welsh Rarebit in Burger form. This Broccoli Rarebit Burger has a broccoli slaw to top the burgers slathered in cheese. Yeah, you know you want one.
The other day I showed you in a few simple pictures how easy grinding your own beef could be. I won’t drag out my pulpit and start preaching about why to grind your own meat quite yet. Instead I’m just going to lure you in with these delicious burgers I made with those perfect patties.
Broccoli Rarebit? I can make this happen.
I wanted to create a spin on cheese slathered Welsh Rarebit to satisfy a major cheese craving but I also wanted a way to sneak some veg in. Knowing everyone loves broccoli slathered in cheese, I decided that making a slaw to top the burgers out of broccoli was a great start. Drenching everything in cheese sauce was the ultimate finish (so much for the vegetables). It was still a wee bit cold, and I am wanting to learn the art of skillet cooking a burger so I opted for that instead of good old fashioned charcoal. Smashing it all in between a toasted bun, this burger was a complete meal in itself.

- Meanwhile, melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat.

- Place patties on toasted bun bottoms and top with a heaping portion of slaw and cheese sauce. Top with remaining bun halves.
