These are messy, and juicy, and delicious. If you can only find ground beef packaged set it out on the counter for about 20 minutes to warm up just a little, then follow directions. You will find these classic burgers at any Texas roadside burger joint-the slaw is a must.

How To Make texas roadhouse style burgers

  • 1
    For this recipe I use my electric skillet. This way I can cook all 4 burgers at once, and they do not fall through the grill grate, and they will if you use this method.
  • 2
    On a plate fluff your freshly ground beef chuck.
  • 3
    Lightly salt and pepper your beef and fluff again-around 1/2 teaspoon each.
  • 4
    Divide your meat into 4 equal portions.
  • 5
    Carefully draw each patty together-it will look like a large meatball barely holding together.
  • 6
    Heat your electric skillet to 400 degrees.
  • 7
    Add oil and swish it around so the bottom of skillet is covered.
  • 8
    Carefully transfer each "meatball" to the hot skillet.
  • 9
    Take a spatula and place it on top of the first "meatball".
  • 10
    Using a CLEAN can press down hard to form your first patty.
  • 11
    Repeat with the other 3. These should be large rounds.
  • 12
    Cook for 4-5 minutes, then flip. You want a nice, brown crust. Not tan, brown.
  • 13
    Brush the tops of your burgers with BBQ sauce-be generous.
  • 14
    Cook for an additional 4 minutes.
  • 15
    Remove to a platter and now fry your buns.
  • 16
    When golden brown remove buns to plate.
  • 17
    Brush buns with remaining BBQ sauce.
  • 18
    On the bottom of the buns place a slice of cheese, then a burger patty, then your pickles, onions, tomato and top with 1/4 cup creamy slaw.
  • 19
    Top with bun and eat.
  • 20
    In order to eat these you will need to adopt the "lean" stance, regardless of whether you are standing or sitting. If you are standing lean out to take a bite, if sitting do the same. These are MESSY and JUICY and you will be wearing it if you do not "lean".
  • 21
    Serve with fries or onion rings.
