Are cheeseburgers Keto-friendly?

Yes, cheeseburgers are Keto-friendly since they have almost zero carbs (without the bun). Cheeseburgers are high in fat and protein which make them perfect for Keto, Low Carb, and LCHF diets.

What are side dishes for Keto burgers?

Steamed broccoli is a great and simple side dish, as well as broccoli salad tossed in a mayo dressing with small chunks of cheese. Other side sides for Keto-friendly burgers is a kale salad (or any Keto salad for that matter!)

What can I use for a Keto bun?

The Best Keto Hamburger Buns recipe on this site is phenomenal and perfect to use for a Keto bun. Other alternatives if Keto bread is not your thing is burgers wrapped in lettuce.

    How are shallots any different than onions? Keto seems to frown on onions (other than green) and is OK with shallots, why?

      I always use green onions if anything calls for shallots. I use red/white/yellow onions too as small amounts won't break my (or most people's) daily carb limit

    Really liked this the first time then swapped cheddar for 2oz chilli cheese and had 1 (so 1/2 serving) with keto coleslaw (without the bacon) delicious. Freeze in greaseproof paper and they cook perfect in the oven

    Done today, they're very good but release a lot of melted fat. Should I eat it or leave as it is?

    Tried it with the Impossible ground "meat" instead of the beef. Really great result and extra tasty :) I think I was a little shy with the salt, but the taste was delicious. Next time I will add cheddar, this time I had gruyere and parmesan.

    A quick sear in a pan helps to seal the juices in. Really enjoyed this

    Ok so I'm confused with this recipe you have to make 4 patties and you have to eat 2 of them?

      It's because it's a stuffed burger. You make seperate patties and then put the cheese between and press them together. That's why 8=4 and 4=2

      I agree! That's just freakin' stupid!! One burger should be one complete burger.

      You make 8 patties. In 4 of them you add the cheese in middle and use the remaining 4 to cover them. In total 4 burgers. Total are 2 servings (2 burgers for 1 serving)

    New to the ap and just reading all these great recipes! Has anyone added bacon to this?? I feel like that would be good.

    I don’t knowing anyone else had this problem but my cheese oozed out so there was none on the inside of the burger when done and I did crimp the patties all around the patties. Think I’ll try slices of cheddar next time instead of grated and see how that goes. Other than that the flavor was good.
