From the Test Kitchen

Tonight’s satisfying cheeseburgers take inspiration from the flavors of Welsh rarebit, a pub favorite featuring a savory, spiced cheese sauce. Our version of the traditional sauce transforms white cheddar into a velvety topping, seasoned with a blend of savory spices and balanced by a bit of Dijon mustard. Together with sweet roasted red onion, it’s the perfect accompaniment to our juicy patties. Crispy wedges of roasted sweet potatoes make for a simple, equally hearty side.

Prepare the ingredients:
1 Prepare the ingredients:

Preheat the oven to 450°F. Wash and dry the fresh produce. Halve the buns. Halve the sweet potatoes lengthwise; cut into 1-inch-wide wedges. Peel the onion; cut into ½-inch-thick rounds, keeping them intact. Large dice the cheese.

Roast the vegetables:
2 Roast the vegetables:

Place the sweet potatoes and onion on separate sides of a sheet pan. Drizzle each with olive oil and season with salt and pepper; carefully toss to coat. Keeping them separate, arrange the seasoned sweet potatoes and onion in a single, even layer. Roast, flipping the onion halfway through, 22 to 24 minutes, or until browned and the sweet potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork. Remove from the oven.

Make the cheese sauce:
3 Make the cheese sauce:

While the vegetables roast, in a medium pot, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the spice blend and cook, whisking frequently, 1 to 2 minutes, or until golden brown and fragrant. Slowly whisk in the milk; cook, whisking occasionally, 2 to 3 minutes, or until slightly thickened. Add the Worcestershire sauce and mustard; cook, whisking frequently, 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until thoroughly combined. Add the cheese and cook, whisking constantly, 2 to 4 minutes, or until thoroughly combined and the cheese has melted. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Turn off the heat.

Form & cook the patties:
4 Form & cook the patties:

While the vegetables continue to roast, place the ground beef in a bowl; season with salt and pepper. Gently mix to incorporate. Using your hands, form into four ¾-inch-thick patties; transfer to a plate. In a large pan (nonstick, if you have one), heat 2 teaspoons of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the patties and cook 2 to 3 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until browned and cooked to your desired degree of doneness. Leaving any browned bits (or fond) in the pan, transfer to a plate. Set aside in a warm place.

Toast the buns:
5 Toast the buns:

While the vegetables continue to roast, working in batches, add the buns, cut sides down, to the pan of reserved fond. Toast on medium-high 2 to 3 minutes per batch, or until golden brown. Transfer to a plate.

Assemble the burgers & plate your dish:
6 Assemble the burgers & plate your dish:

Divide the roasted sweet potatoes and toasted bun bottoms between 4 dishes. Top the buns with the roasted onion and cooked patties. Whisk the cheese sauce; top the patties with some of the sauce (you may have extra sauce). Complete the burgers with the bun tops. Serve with any remaining cheese sauce on the side. Enjoy!
