Directions:In a bowl, mix in your ground steak, some Italian seasoning, and some Panko Bread Crumbs. Unfortunately, I cannot give you measurements on this as I've always just kinda eyeballed it, and went by a process of trial and error. What I can tell you though is that you will need to knead this by hand to work the seasoning and bread crumbs in and to make it an even consistency. What you are going for here is to make the meat "smooth" if that makes sense - meaning, it should not fall apart like it would when you make a regular patty.
When I make these, I use an electric griddle to cook both the patties as well as grilling the bread, of course you can do this in a pan as well. On the griddle, I set it to about 300 degrees.
Form your patties to match the size of the slices of bread (I make mine about a little more than 1/2" thick), and proceed to cook them thoroughly. Once cooked, set aside for the moment.
Butter your slices of bread and proceed to grill them as you would a grilled cheese. I personally like to do both sides, doing so will keep the pizza sauce from soaking into the bread and making it soggy, with the inside being just slightly less grilled than what will be the outside. When then bread is nearly done, start to build your sandwich. Place your cooked patty on the bottom slice, add your pizza sauce, a dash more seasoning, and a liberal amount of mozzarella cheese. Put your top bread slice on, and then proceed to finish grilling the sandwich (carefully flipping a couple of times to ensure even grilling) to melt the cheese. |
