Burger with Mushrooms
When grilling season rolls around, I get so excited to make this grilled burger! Grilled burgers have so much flavor and a sear unlike any other. They’re perfect for backyard BBQ dinners and making everyone in the neighborhood jealous! 😉
This mushroom burger recipe is the best of the best. Not only will everyone wonder what that amazing smell is, but every bite is irresistibly flavorful. Sauteed mushrooms and onions, Swiss cheese, and lean beef patties on brioche buns. It’s a burger dream come true!
I also love smoking and two of our favorites are smoked brisket and smoked prime rib. They make for a fun and delicious get-together for family and friends.
This was sooo good! I will keep this one! Thank you.

Mushroom Swiss Burgers Ingredients
- Ground Beef: Use an 80/20 or 90/10 mix.
- Burger Seasoning: For the seasoning, I'm using my famous burger seasoning recipe. It's a combination of salt, black pepper, paprika, onion powder, and garlic powder.
- Swiss Cheese: Swiss pairs the best with mushrooms on a burger, but you can use other cheeses, too! Try Gruyere or even a cheese spread like Boursin.
- Brioche Buns: Or buns of your choice. I prefer brioche because of how buttery they are!
- Butter: Use unsalted butter or, if salted butter is all you have, make sure to add less salt in the seasoning.
- White Mushrooms: Plain white mushrooms are all you need for the sauteed mushroom topping. You can buy them pre-sliced or whole and slice them yourself. Just make sure to gently wash them with a damp paper towel before slicing if you buy them whole.
- Sweet Yellow Onion: Or white onion. I don't recommend using red onion, but you could. If you do, try my caramelized red onions.
- Salt and Pepper: We use a bit of additional salt and pepper for these burgers. Adjust according to your preferences.
- Worcestershire Sauce: The flavor Worcestershire sauce brings to the table with these burgers is unmatched! The tangy, savory flavor pairs very well with the taste of these burgers.
Mushroom Sauce for Burgers Steps
- Melt butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add sliced white mushrooms and cook for 5 minutes.
- Reduce the heat to medium and add sliced onion, salt, pepper, and Worcestershire sauce. Cook for 5-7 minutes until softened and browned.
- Top off your burger with sauteed mushrooms and onions for the best Mushroom Swiss Burger ever!
Check out my step by step on how to cook the best mushrooms and onions.
You can use sauteed mushrooms and onions for so many more delicious beef recipes, too. Imagine pairing them with Slow Cooker Beef Ribs or Instant Pot Prime Rib Roast!
Swiss Mushroom Burger Recipe Steps
- Heat a grill or a cast-iron skillet on the stove over medium heat. Form ground beef into 4 evenly-sized patties. Season each patty with a good amount of burger seasoning.
- Cook a batch of sautéed mushrooms and onions and set aside. It takes just 10 minutes to make these mushrooms and onions, and they are delicious!
- Add patties to preheated grill or pan. Cook for 8 minutes on one side, then for 6-8 minutes on the opposite side, or until cooked through. Turn off the heat.
- Top with a slice of Swiss cheese and let it melt while on the grill or pan. Once melted, remove the burgers and place them each onto a brioche bun. Top with mushrooms and onions, and serve.
This Swiss mushroom burger recipe is one of the easiest burgers to make. You can grill them or cook them on the stove. You can even make the patty in the air fryer using this easy Air Fryer Burger recipe.
I also love to use my homemade burger seasoning for burgers. It's the perfect burger seasoning every time!
Mushroom Swiss Burgers FAQ
What should I do if my burger is sticking to the pan or grill?
If your burger sticks, it's not ready to flip yet. Give it another minute or so, then try flipping it again.
Can I use a different cheese?
Yes! Try a cheese-like Gruyere or White Cheddar to mix things up.
Can I use lean ground beef?
Yes! For leaner burgers, try a 90/10 mix instead of 80/20.
Is this recipe keto-friendly?
As long as you skip the bun, this grilled burger recipe is a perfect choice for a keto diet!
Making Gluten-Free Burgers
You can make the best mushroom Swiss burger completely gluten-free by making sure the Worcestershire sauce for the sauteed mushrooms and onions is gluten-free, and by using use gluten-free burger buns.
Mushroom and Swiss Burger Temp
For best results, I recommend always using a meat thermometer, and following my guide on How Long to Cook Burgers! This is the most useful tool for checking if your beef is done to your liking.

Absolutely delicious swiss mushroom burger. I made this recipe but substituted little pub burgers on buttered slider buns by Pepperidge farms. Was so delicious.

I always put my mushrooms under the cheese. It keeps them in place.

Em Beitel says
That is a great suggestion, Charles. Thank you!

I generally agree with the placement suggestion. Another idea is to make a simple Swiss cheese sauce and allow the guests to take as much of the mushrooms/onions and Swiss cheese sauce as they want before eating. This allows everyone to layer as they desire and have fun! No ketchup eaters with this recipe, though, right? I had a brother-in-law who put ketchup on EVERYTHING! Even ice cream, I swear. Thanks for posting!Reply
Em Beitel says
Thanks so much, Marty! These are great suggestions. We're glad you enjoyed it - without ketchup! 😂
