Instructions
Saute the Mushrooms
Melt butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add sliced cremini mushrooms in a single layer and cook without stirring for 3 to 4 minutes until golden brown on one side. Stir and cook 2 more minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
Form the Patties
Mix ground beef gently with Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Form into four equal patties about three quarters of an inch thick. Press a small dimple in the center of each to prevent puffing during cooking.
Grill or Pan-Fry the Patties
Cook patties over medium-high heat for 3 to 4 minutes per side for medium doneness. Do not flip more than once as repeated flipping prevents a good sear from developing on the surface.
Melt the Cheese
In the last minute of cooking, place a slice of Swiss cheese on each patty. Cover the pan with a lid or tent with foil to trap steam and fully melt the cheese in about 60 seconds.
Assemble and Serve
Toast brioche buns cut side down in a dry skillet until golden. Place each cheesy patty on the bottom bun and top generously with the sauteed mushrooms. Serve immediately while everything is hot.
