Baked Irish Burgers

Preheat oven to 350 F. Line a baking sheet with aluminium foil and spray with cooking spray; set aside.

In a bowl, mix all of your burger ingredients together until well combined. I used my hands.

Place the beef on prepared baking sheet and flatten it out to about 1/4″ in height, and shape it like a rectangle. When you make your burgers you want them to fit onto your square slices of rye bread.

Place in the oven for 20 minutes or until no longer pink. Take the burger out of the oven and turn your oven broiler on.

Skim off the fat on the burgers and cut burgers into 4 equal pieces and place on a slice of rye bread. Top with cheese and sauerkraut and top with other slice of bread. Spray bread with butter spray. Place on a clean baking sheet and put in the broiler and bake for 2 minutes, then flip your sandwich and cook for another 2 minutes until bread is crisp and cheese is melted. Be sure to watch the bread, it can burn in a blink of an eye!
