Total Time 2 hours 25 minutes
Servings 6

Ingredients
 

  • 6 hamburger patties (fresh raw flat ones approx. the size of your palm from the butcher department of your grocery store. Another option is to flatten down some ready made rissoles)
  • ½ - 1 small onion, sliced
  • 3 large mushrooms, sliced
  • 6T Smoky BBQ sauce
  • 6 cheese slices
  • To serve: Burger rolls and green salad leaves

Instructions
 

  • Using a non stick slow cooker (or baking paper on a ceramic bowl) lay down the 6 raw burger patties
  • Top each with a spoon of sauce and then the onion and mushroom slices
  • Cook on HIGH for 2hrs with tea towel trick in place (make sure that in your cooker the meat is cooked through in this time)
  • Top each one with a slice of cheese and cook for additional 15mins to melt cheese
  • Using an egg flip carefully lift each topped burger pattie (it all stays together thanks to the cheese) and place it on a hamburger roll.
  • Top with salad leaves and serve!

Notes

  • Great to wrap for lunches, picnics or even easy meals at sports games
  • Easy to adapt toppings, eg we leave mushrooms out of our kids ones but add extra on ours!
