It’s no secret that Wisconsinites love their dairy—so much that they sometimes top their burgers with a generous pat of butter.
My recipe is a lot like the butter burgers you’ll find in popular restaurants all over the state. —Becky Carver, North Royalton, Ohio —Becky Carver, North Royalton, Ohio

I never ate at Culver's but I made this recipe using regular hamburger and without the mushrooms because I do not like them and used brioche buns. I will fry hamburgers in butter from now on and top with extra butter because these were some darn good burgers!!!
Work at culvers, not even close. The bun is lightly buttered and have not clue what is going on with the mushroom thing. It might be wonderful, but should not be called a Culver's copycat.
I usually add an egg to the ground beef mixture for burgers. Usually, the standard is one egg per pound of beef. This is supposed to keep burgers from falling apart while they are cooking.
MANY small hidden gems in Southeastern Wisconsin do put a dollop of butter on top. Unless the butter is dripping, you are not eating a butter burger.
The mushrooms and butter basting add great flavor to this burger. These were a hit with my family.
I love mushrooms in any dish, but I REALLY love mushrooms when finely chopped and added to these hamburgers. They made the beef so rich and tender! Definitely a recipe to repeat again and again!
