🔍 COPYCAT SECRETS UNCOVERED!
Texas Roadhouse Road Kill is an easy recipe to decipher – it’s mainly a big a$$ hamburger with onions, mushrooms and cheese on top! I don’t just use plain ground beef though – because it’s ground steak – but sure to go for ground sirloin and then mix in onion, garlic & Worcestershire for that Texas Roadhouse flavor.
How to make Road Kill from Texas Roadhouse
This copycat recipe for “Road Kill” is really simple – make up some burgers and top with sauteed mushrooms and onions. Here are the details to a delicious hamburger steak dinner with basic ingredients.
- MIX together your chopped steak ingredients and make two patties. These are 1/2 lb patties so you could serve 4 or just double the recipe.
- I used milk & bread for a binder to help the chopped steak stay together. You could also use an egg.
- I used ground sirloin, but ground chuck works as well. I like using 85/15.
- SEAR beef patties in cast iron skillet and then transfer to oven for 15 min
- SAUTE onions & mushrooms
- TOP burgers with onions, mushrooms and shredded cheese
- BAKE a few minutes until cheese melts and serve!
