I was surprised my guys liked these. I will make them again though it is pretty rich in fat. It look a lot of burger and the filling was way to much for the four of us so I cut it back a bit (1/2 a package of cream cheese and 1/2 of everything else) We left out the mushrooms and went with grilled onions on top. I wonder how these would be in meatballs with the filling? Also since it was Dec and we in in Oregon we did them in a skillet not on the grill. I had a hard time keeping them from sliding apart in the skillet I can't imagine the grill..

This was good but because we have to watch our fat intake this is not something I would go out of my way to make again.

Yum! I didn't add the sauteed mushrooms, but these were definitely a hit!

My son and husband love this recipe. It is very rich and delicious. I like to add sauteed onions with the mushrooms.

Our family would give this one 6 stars if we could. This was perfect recipe for my daughter-in-law Simona for it is an easy recipe to do-ahead. With her busy schedule we prepared the filling and the patties the day before. So on "football day" it was a cinch to put together and hand over to my son Jonathan for grilling while we sauted the mushrooms and got the side dishes ready. I believe the flavors were even better because the flavors mingled all night. Definately a family favorite...sooooo good!

My husband & boys do not care for mushrooms, so I left that part out, but the burger itself, outstanding!!! Will definitely make it again!

I cut some carbs by skipping the bun. I like to serve it right on top of a really great salad.
