The Best Butter Burger Recipe: Juicy, buttery, and irresistibly delicious!
If you're a fan of butter and deliciously juicy burgers, (And who isn't!!) then this Butter Burger Recipe is for you. Originating from Wisconsin, this burger is unlike any other. The key feature is the generous use of butter—not just on the buns but also in cooking the onions and the patty, and as a topping. This recipe incorporates my personal twist by adding garlic butter for an extra punch of flavor. This Butter Burger Recipe yields about 1 serving. If you are making more than one you can easily determine the ingredient amounts you need using the Settings above the Ingredient list below.
