Rhine Burgers
1 beaten egg
2 tablespoons beer
1/4 cup fine dry rye bread crumbs
1/2 teaspoon caraway seeds
1 pound lean ground beef
4 slices Muenster cheese (2 ounces)
8 slices rye or pumpernickel bread, toasted
1 cup Steinfeld's Sauerkraut well drained
In a medium mixing bowl combine egg and beer. Stir in bead crumbs and caraway seed. Add ground beef and mix well. Shape into 4 oval patties, each about 5 inches long and 1/2 inch thick. Place patties on an unheated rack in a broiler pan. Broil 3 to 4 inches from heat to desired doneness, turning once (allow about 9 minutes total for medium ). Top with cheese. Heat just till cheese melts. Serve burgers on toasted bread with sauerkraut. Delicious served with Hot German Potato Salad. Makes 4 servings.
