INSTANT POT METHOD
THE BEST RECIPE FOR YOUR NEXT SUMMER PARTY! Mini Big Mac Style Cheeseburger Skewers w/ Salt & Vinegar Potatoes.
Ingredients
Scale
FOR THE POTATOES:
- 1-pound Yukon Gold or Fingerling potatoes, sliced lengthwise to 1/4-inch thickness
- 2 cups distilled white vinegar (apple cider works well but adds a sweetness to it)
- Extra virgin olive oil
- Sea salt
- Pepper
FOR THE SLIDERS:
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 TBS Worcestershire Sauce
- 1 TBS total of preferred spices
My preferred spices : pepper, garlic and onion. I do not use salt as I add a small amount of organic veggie juice.
Burger Toppings:
- Cheddar cheese – cut into small squares
- Iceberg lettuce
- Grape/cherry tomatoes
- Dill pickle chips
- Optional: jalapeno slices
Instructions
- Wash and slice potatoes
- Pour 2 cups distilled vinegar into the IP
- Add sliced potatoes
- Cover with lid and let soak while you prep the burgers, sauce and toppings.
- In medium bowl combine ground beef, spices and Worcestershire sauce.
- Form ground beef into small meatball-like rounds, placing each one in your IP “egg bite molds” as you go.
- Place trivet in Instant pot over the potatoes in vinegar. Lower meat tray onto trivet and secure IP Lid.
- Set venting valve to seal and cook at manual high pressure for 2 minutes
- Quick release the pressure.
- Using heat shield gloves, lift trivet and mini burger tray out of IP and set aside.
- Gently transfer potatoes to a baking sheet and drain liquid. Using a paper towel pat dry the potatoes. Coat potato slices with olive oil, salt and pepper and gently toss.
- Transfer potatoes back to IP with air fryer lid.
- Air fry @ 475 F until brown and crispy. Remove lid, gently toss potatoes and crisp again. Time varies by air fryer – in my 8 qt pot with potatoes in the bottom, it took 20 minutes x2. The closer the element is to the potatoes, the faster it’ll crisp – I recommend broiling in oven for larger batches/quicker batches.
- Remove lid and return burgers to IP in Air Fry Basket (on trivet about potatoes) with a square of cheese on top each one.
- Melt cheese using Air Fryer Lid @ 475 F – about 1 minute.
- Enjoy
