When you think about a burger, you think about a patty topped with cheese enclosed in a bun. But that is about to change. Today, we are going to make a burger with a twist. The recipe I am talking about is the open-faced Texas burger.
The open-faced burger consists of a meat patty covered in a mixture of sauces and cheese served on a toast. There is no top bun which is the reason it is called ‘open-faced’. It is very versatile and can be eaten for breakfast, lunch, supper, or as an evening snack. In Europe and North American, it is a regular breakfast and supper.
To make an open-faced Texas burger, mix onion, garlic, thyme, and beef in a bowl. Shape this mixture into patties and cook them until they are no longer pink. Meanwhile, cook the Texas toast. Then, add tomato sauce, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, and steak sauce to a skillet and cook until it gets thick. Coat patties in this sauce and add cheese. Serve the patties on the toast.
