White Castle Burgers!

Ok, so Dave was sick today, and he's kind of a cry baby when he's sick. Because he can be such a whiner, I wanted to make him a really special dinner. I know what you're thinking. . .Does White Castle really scream "special dinner?" Not for most people, but you don't know Dave. He's obsessed.

It's been said that his Mom craved these little burgers when she was pregnant with him. Where we live, however, there is no White Castle. If there were, he's probably be a thousand pounds heavier. So I found a recipe, tweaked it a bit, and made them for dinner. They were great! SO CLOSE to the real deal!

I put plenty of pictures with this post, so you can see exactly how I did this. It's out there on many other recipe sites as well. If you like White Castle, you gotta give these bad boys a try!


White Castle Burgers!

1 1/2 pounds hamburger
1 onion, finely chopped
1 package Lipton onion soup mix
1 tablespoon peanut butter
1/2 cup milk
Cheese slices
Pickles
Ketchup
Mustard

1. In a large bowl mix together the hamburger, Lipton Onion Soup Mix, peanut butter, and milk.
2. Sprinkle chopped onions evenly in a 10 x 15 pan. (At this point I toasted the onions a bit, but you don't have to do that.)
3. Scoop the meat mixture over the onions in the pan.
4. Flatten the meat and spread/smooth it out.
5. Put it in a 350 degree oven for about 25 minutes. The meat will shrink.
6. Add your cheese slices. Put it back in the oven for 7-10 minutes (until cheese is melted).
7. Then add the tops of your buns and place back in the oven for about 5 more minutes.
8. Remove burger tops, and top with a pickle.
9. Slice the burgers with a pizza cutter and pick up the slider/top bun with a spatula and set it on the bottom bun.
