Stuffin Burgers
Stuffin Burgers offer a flavorful twist with seasoned beef combined with savory stuffing, perfect for hearty, family-friendly meals that are easy to prepare and satisfying.
Ingredients
Instructions
- Combine the stuffing mix and milk in a bowl; let it soften.
- Add chopped onion, hamburger, salt, and pepper to the mixture.
- Shape the mixture into patties.
- Broil or grill the patties until cooked through.
- Toast the buns for added taste before serving.
Tips & Substitutions
For added flavor, consider mixing in some herbs like thyme or rosemary into the stuffing mixture. If you don't have Pepperidge Farm stuffing mix, homemade breadcrumbs seasoned with spices can work as a substitute. To avoid dryness, ensure the patties are not overcooked; they should be juicy and tender. This recipe also pairs nicely with American recipes that feature hearty flavors.
Serving Suggestions
Serve the Stuffin Burgers on toasted buns with your favorite toppings such as lettuce, tomato, and mayonnaise. They pair well with side dishes like coleslaw or sweet potato fries for a complete meal. For a fun twist, try adding some onion bacon dip as a condiment for an extra layer of flavor.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftover Stuffin Burgers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. When reheating, place them in a skillet over medium heat until warmed through, or use a microwave, ensuring they are heated evenly. You can also freeze the uncooked patties for up to two months; just thaw before cooking.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use ground turkey instead of hamburger?
Yes, you can substitute ground turkey for hamburger in this recipe for a leaner option. Just be aware that turkey may require additional seasoning to enhance its flavor. Ensure you cook the patties thoroughly, as turkey needs to be cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F.
What can I serve with Stuffin Burgers?
Stuffin Burgers go great with classic sides such as potato salad, baked beans, or corn on the cob. For a lighter option, consider a fresh garden salad or some roasted vegetables. These pairings not only complement the flavors of the burgers but also create a well-rounded meal.
How can I make these burgers spicier?
To add some heat to your Stuffin Burgers, consider mixing in diced jalapeños or adding cayenne pepper to the stuffing mixture. You can also offer spicy condiments like sriracha or pepper jack cheese as toppings to cater to those who enjoy a bit of spice in their meal.
