RILLED burgers are a must-have at summertime barbecues. If you've never had a porcini mushroom burger, you'll want to try our Kobe Porcini Burger recipe. Porcini mushrooms are delicious, earthy treasures, and dried mushrooms are very concentrated in flavor. Grinding the mushrooms turns them into a seasoning powder that adds great flavor. Tucked inside a rich brioche bun, these mouthwatering burgers become even better with toppings of fontina cheese and caramelized onions.
Pairing
Piere Celis is one of Belgium's master brewers. Mr. Celis reintroduced the world to the Belgium White Ale in the late 1960s, and has since been creating world-class brews enjoyed from Texas to Tasmania. Grotten Brown ale is a perfect pairing with our signature Kobe Porcini Burger. The ale has the balance of a great wine with the richness of beer. The earthiness of the porcini mushroom will be heightened by the rich malty aromas and flavors, and balanced by the hops and crisp finish. This is a true food lover's ale.
