About Texas Roadhouse All-American Cheeseburger

The All-American Cheeseburger is the baseline burger at Texas Roadhouse and the proof of the in-house butcher program: a patty ground fresh from never-frozen chuck, dressed with American cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion and pickles on a toasted bun, $12.49 with steak fries. With cheese it lands at 1,240 calories including the fries.

Fresh grind is the entire difference. The patty stays loose and juicy where frozen chain patties press dense, and the toasted bun holds to the last bite. It is the burger to order when you want to know what a steakhouse thinks a burger should be.

  • 1 set lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles

Instructions

0 of 4 steps

  1. 1Form 6 oz patties with a dimple pressed in the center. Season outside only. · 8 minTip: Salt inside the mix makes bouncy sausage texture. Outside only.

  3. 3Cheese on at the flip, lid on the last minute to melt. · 1 min
  4. 4Build on toasted buns: sauce of choice, lettuce, tomato, patty, onion, pickles. · 3 min

Pro Tips

  • The center dimple stops the patty ballooning.
  • Buttered, toasted buns are half of every good burger.
  • Rest patties two minutes so the juice stays in the burger, not the bun.

Variations

Two strips of crisp bacon under the cheese, the $13.49 menu upgrade at home.

Double Stack

Two thinner 4 oz patties with cheese between, smash-style.

Serving Ideas

  • Steak fries and a pickle spear, the full plate.
