Platte County in Missouri, USA is known for it's kraut burgers. Time and convenience have changed the way they serve them, but this is the old-fashioned way that everyone remembers from their childhood. With the exception of the seasoning, which is my touch. Even non-kraut lovers like these.

SERVES 3 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1 lb ground chuck
1 cup sauerkraut, drained
3 hamburger buns
McCormick's Montreal Brand steak seasoning

Directions

1
Divide chuck into thirds.
2
Then divide each third into half, and flatten them out into 6 patties.
3
Place 1/3 cup sauerkraut on each of 3 patties.
4
Top with the other 3 patties, being sure to seal well around the edges.
5
Sprinkle with steak seasoning.
6
Grill until done.
7
Place each burger on a bun and top with mustard or your favorite topping.

Hey Mysterygirl, this was a nice different idea, it tasted wonderful!! but had trouble keeping the patties together. Put them on a seseme seed kaiser bun with dejong mustard, slices of walla walla onions, and sharp cheddar cheese, didn't have any steak seasoning, so I used a sprinkle of "Big Dave's Garlic Blaster". (a local thing made in Kelowna). really like the idea of the saurkraut inside the patty, just have to figure out how to keep it there! Thanks for sharing, will do them again.
