This meal is delicious and full of flavor!  Because I love flavorful food so much, the mushrooms used are not just plain button mushrooms. Oh no!  They are fire roasted button mushrooms.  (If you are curious, I got them at Walmart in the frozen section…they are Phillips brand) They take the flavor to a whole new level!

The first thing I did was take 1 lb of our grass fed beef and make 4  patties, each being 1/4 lb.  I used my favorite seasonings on them but you can use anything you like.

Now, using a cast iron skillet, (just my recommendation but whatever you like will work) brown your burgers according to your preferred doneness.

Meanwhile, start sauteing your mushrooms in 1 tablespoon of butter.  Saute until golden brown.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. When the burgers are cooked through and the mushrooms are done,  it is time to assemble our burgers.  Set your patties on an oven safe plate or pan.  Take 1 slice of provolone cheese and place on top of each patty.  Then top with 1/4 of mushrooms (I say 1/4 because it makes this low carb if using 1 serving of mushrooms which is 2 oz or 1/4 of the mushrooms).  Put in the oven until the cheese is melted.  This only takes a couple of minutes.
