13 Reviews of Whine and Cheese All the Thyme Burger

From: Chef #631075

On May 13, 2008

jcmt- Leave out all that jibber jabber after each ingredient! The burger actually looked appealing, but when I saw all that wordy clutter, I didn't even want to bother! The Ingredients List needs to be short and simple, to easily pull your ingredients together...Save the wit for your next show on the Food Network! ;P

    This recipe is so different and really well done! Thank you for it - it'll be on our regular play list especially for company. I have to admit to messing up when I converted the ground turkey from pounds into kg - guess I got into the chardonnay a bit too early....anyway - ended up with WAY too much meat and huge monster burgers!! The 20 year old males in the house tonight loved that though and thought them perfect that way. I couldn't find sourdough at the market so substituted with Kalamata Olive bread which is a great crusty dense bread with a hint of fresh roesmary. Worked really well with the other flavours. Good job team - I'm impressed by your ingenuity with this one.

    This burger is delicious and well-designed. The burgers are HUGE and I'm afraid they are just too rich for me. The flavors are awesome. I would happily make this for company, without the bread/bun, as a main dish--the mushrooms and onions as a side dish. Where I had choices, I used some very nice goat cheese from the farmer's market and pinot grigio. The rest exactly as specified.

    My family loved this burger. I liked how all the ingredients blended so well together. My husband is a big fan of mushrooms and onions sauteed together and the wine gave more flavor. I did use ground turkey and mozzarella cheese. For ZWTIII.

    Well, what can I say. Mrs G, you must have great ones, cos the chicken breast burger pattie was great (sorry, used chicken as turkey is not common here - we cook it in a roast but not much else). All of the flavours work well together, I am a big fan of mustard, garlic & thyme, and you had all 3 in one place - brilliant. We don't have vidalia onions here but used white, they're pretty much close to the same thing, I also couldn't get cremini mushrooms, however had some wild ones that had been given to me so it all worked out well. Thanks for such a moreish burger, this made 4 thick patties but the burger as a whole was so filling (had one and that was it). (Did use beautiful chardonnay, thanks for the incentive to open a bottle just for 3T, gave me the excuse to have 2 glasses whilst watching a fantastic netball semi-final)!!

    Alsolutely Fabulous! I made a couple of small substitutions - I used a turkey breast steak and not minced turkey breast - and I had no red peppers, so I used tomatoes instead - everything else was as stated. I decided to use chevre cheese............divine darling!! Oh yes - I could not get hold of sourdough bread today, Sunday - so I used an large crispy burger bun! Lovely blend of flavours - I had my turkey in wine & herb mixture for 24 hours!!! FT

    It was like a cross between gourmet and comfort food! I couldn't resist trying a burger with wine and I was glad I did. It was even better than I had imagined. The turkey was moist and succulent. I used mozzarella cheese, shiitake and oyster mushrooms, and souvvignon Blanc (2 Buck chuck) Thanks Whine and Cheesers!

    This was every bit as wonderful as I thought it would be. It had everything in it I love. Don't leave out the wine because I think that makes it along with the Dijon. I also used grated mont/jack cheese. The only thing I didn't do was add the pepper toppers and I had it on a toasted texas toast slice. I would give this 10 stars. Great Burger!!!!

    This was a fantastic burger! It was huge though, and I barely managed half. I love the combination of the wine and goats cheese. Nice alternative to a regular turkey burger. You guys rock! Made for ZWT 3.

    Two changes made by me - I substituted Inglehoffer's Cranberry Mustard and Kaiser rolls for the Dijon mustard and sourdough bread. I did use Cavet Pinot Grigio and plain Chevrion goat cheese. We had a backyard picnic since this was the last day of Carly's school year and so I left out (sigh) the suggested glass of wine (sigh. Made and enjoyed for ZWT3.
