White Castle Cheeseburgers (Copycat recipe the RIGHT way)

[@LunaBelleCrafts]

a couple of tips from a former castle employee. 1. blend your meat with a tad bit of the broth. it'll mix evenly, and it'll make it much easier to press. 2. when you rehydrate your onions, use less water. those babies hold a ton of water. and it will quickly make the bun soggy. 3. place those suckers on an electric griddle! it's just like the grill (or as they refer to them as sides) at WC. 4. when using the griddle, place the rehydrated, and partially drained onions first. then your meat. you do want some space, about 1-2cm in between each patty. at this point, sprinkle with salt and pepper. 4. place the bottoms of your buns on first. the patties will adhere almost to the bun. 5. when going to steam the buns tops, place the back row of burgers tops directly on the bottom. for the rest of the rows, you'll want to have them sitting half on each burger. the space between the patties will steam them. you can pull the patties off with a spatula and place the top on, and then add pickles or cheese. hope this maybe makes them taste even more authentic!

My wife is a long-time connoisseur of Krystal's version of these sliders, and she declared my first attempt at your recipe a "Home Run!" I've never been a fan of them, but these turned out delicious and as importantly to me - tasting "fresh" which you're lucky to get from fast food. Thanks!

[@ButterCupMMXXIII]

Hi, love this! But have to say that about forty years ago I started making my own version when I was in a hurry to feed our kids' party. What I did was to just go ahead and hand-flatten the pre-seasoned ground chuck onto the cooking pan, the minced onions on the bottom of the pan first. I did two pans since we had a lot of kids. No measuring, no holes. Then when the meat juices were running clear and the meat was thoroughly cooked, on went the cheese, diced tomato, pickles. I shut off the oven until the cheese was completely melted. Then I put on the top buns, cut them into individual portions using the bun top as the guide, and left in the oven for another bit until they were warm. This takes a very short time. Then slid them individually from the pan onto each warmed bottom bun. The easiest way! No measuring, no fussing. It is one of those things you do to save time, not to make more work. Thanks again!

[@ButterCupMMXXIII]

PS -- To spread out the meat onto the minced onions simply break chunks off by hand and flatten. The more you do this the less work to evenly distribute later. This is much easier than trying to flatten out from one big lump.

[@littlemspd9674]

I made them last summer the exact way you showed. Now I'm watching again to make them again.. the family loved them so much. Thank you for this video!!!!

[@Frehleyacedude]

I moved out of New York 15 years ago and the only thing I missed about that state was Whitecastle. I’m telling you, you cannot tell the difference between this recipe and the actual burgers. This is amazing! I mean, amazing! Thank you so much for satisfying that white castle craving that I’ve had for a long time

[@gerrycorbino2000]

Close, but no cigar. I worked at White Castle as a teenager and I can tell you exactly how their burgers were made. The patties came from Hormel and were completely frozen with the 5 holes in each burger. The onion mixture was made ahead of time using dehydrated onions, a seasoning mixture of salt & pepper, and then water to re-hydrate the onions. There may have been a bit of water in left, but it wasn't a whole lot like on this video. There was never any beef bullion or stock mixed in. There were two griddles that each held 30 burgers. The griddle was turned on and the onions mixture was spread evenly around, next the burgers were put on top of the patties, the bottom buns were then placed over the burger with the top bun offset up and to the left or right (depending on the orientation of the griddle. When the burgers were half way done the griddle was switched off and the burgers cooked the rest of the way with the residual heat. The holes in the burgers allowed steam to soften the bottom bun and the offset of the top bun was steamed from the space around the edges of the burgers. Whether Hormel added beef stock/bullion to the meat during processing or the spice mixture contained beef bullion I can't say, but I do know that the re-hydrated onions did not appear to have any coloring that would indicate bullion. If someone ordered a cheeseburger the cheese was put on after the burger was pulled off the griddle. If someone asked for mustard & ketchup on their burger we used a bottle that was a mixture of both so that we wouldn't have to slow up the line.

[@meckabrignac8485]

*TIP*. If all you have is a wooden rolling pin cover the meat with another layer of wax paper before using it that way it will not stick to the meat . (That's what I did, and it worked beautifully !) I've never made these before, but I feel much more confident following your tips in this video after looking up other 'copycat' recipes! (Peanutbutter! Omg!) I'm from New Orleans so ofcourse I added a bit more seasoning, I hope it works out as I'm about to put them in the oven now.

[@mainemagic2351]

The ones I had in Hempstead NY were outstanding...Cheeseburger, Chick Fillet, Fish fillet were 2.5 blocks from where I lived. The onion rings were always ready and I think they would create a large flatulent cloud. The shakes were great and the fries were ok. Always a line come Friday Night and the bars let out. They stayed open till 12 midnight...just on Hempstead Turnpike, at the fork in the road. When they put in the drive thru, only @10 parking spots but still long lines...to this day, we always get burgers there on the way to Islanders Hockey game down the road going east. After the game we would go to the Belmont Inn for a Pizza...lots of fun.

[@rich1051414]

They both have a similar method of making the burgers, but Krystals burgers have different seasoning and lower quality meat. Here in the south, we call krystal burgers 'stomach bombs', I guess because of the MSG they add to their burgers.

[@urusoimi]

[@asianpirate4061]

Would have been helpful to see final assembly after baking. Also, if the meat shrinks like you said, it is kind of pointless to score the meat with a knife. But if you really wanted to, I think using a pizza cutter wheel would be easier to get straight lines instead of a knife.

I am trying this recipe right now-I'm at the freezing stage. I had made these before using the Kings Hawaiian dinner rolls and they were really good, but I just pressed out the meat and cooked it, then put the slab of meat onto the bottom rolls, topped with American cheese and fresh chopped onion then placed the top rolls on top and put back in the oven for about 5 minutes-everybody liked them, But I'm always willing to try new things and your presentation was very well done.

Hi, Anto :) wonderful recipe! I have made this several times for my family and they love it! It would be so much more convenient for my recipe book to have the directions written out.

As much as I love watching your videos, I'm usually in a hurry with noisy kids running around so videos are more difficult to refer back to.

[@MegaRleonard]

no need to put any lines in the meat before adding the holes, just evenly place a bunch of holes. Also, no straw is needed, just use the end of a chop stick, or anything round that make about the same size hole.

[@NichaelCramer]

The usual complaint you hear about things is that "...they're not as good as when I was a kid". And I have to say, we live in New England now, and every time we've made it back to the midwest and I've stopped by WC for a refill, they really _don't_ seem as good as I remember. They seem --I don't know-- drier, less tasty. (and don't get me started on the frozen WCs we find in our local stores...) But, dammit, the ones I make from this recipe really *are* every bit as good as the ones I remember getting on those late-night runs back in high school. And I can make them now any time I want (and typically in less time than it used to take me to drive to a WCs and pick up a bag.) And then top the meal off with a iced glass of orange Fanta just like WC used to carry back them.. Congratulations, girl. You truly nailed it. Thank you.

Nichael Cramer nothing stays the same

[@bigstick5278]

Nichael Cramer:::: Because of cost effectiveness bull shit involved.. Nothing is the same as back in the 60's and early 70's... All the burger joints ruled.. McDonald's burgers have shrunk? No your hands got bigger!! Mass produced for effective mass quantity sales thanks to the investment industry. Also people gave a shit about what they were doing on the job back then. McDonald's is consistent everywhere it's crap but you know it and it will be crap the same exact way three thousand miles away. The only time it's not consistent is when the brain dead teenager lays on the mustard and Ketchup to heavy so when you take a bite the shit squirts all over the front of your shirt or in your lap if your driving. consistency is the key to a long life in the restaurant industry. Without it you will be out of business fast.

[@badbackshop]

Bravo - however, I've disinterred another important factor/secret for making CC-sliders as authentic as possible: The ground beef MUST be re-ground at least 1-2 times more than a standard store-bought single grind. If you examine a WC patty, you will notice how finely ground it is - more of a pressed beef loaf than actual ground beef. Most supermarket butchers will triple grind burger for you if you ask. Texture is as important as taste for replicating this classic. As well, I've discovered that a 50/50 chuck, lean beef mixture tastes best - just FYI.

[@Squarebulb]

[@rbeck3200tb40]

Thats not how they make sliders. Sliders at White Castle or Krystal are basically thin meat with holes punched into it cooked on a griddle at medium low heat on a bed of diced onions which they add a small amount of water to . They also add a little salt and pepper. The meat is steamed by the onions. They then put it on a bun .

[@NichaelCramer]

A couple comments: 1] My only rolling pin is wooden, so I used a tall drinking glass. It worked like a charm (Mine was glass, hard plastic would probably work too.) (Another option: Put another layer of parchment paper or waxpaper on top of the meat and you could use a regular rolling pin.) (Another option would be to put the meat in a large ziplock bag, say 1 gal. Also, as you mention most of the prep time involves rolling out the meat. So if you wanted to do this before hand --say you were going to do several batches for a party-- you could do them in the ziplock back and slip them in the fridge or freezer for later.) 2] I didn't have a straw handy, so I used the round end of a chopstick. Worked perfect. (A pencil would also be the right size. But ick...) 3] The only (small) problem, as other folks have mentioned, is that the top bun was slightly "toasty". So, I think the next time I do this I'm going to make an aluminum foil tent for the burgers. (Also, I figure this might help the buns get steamed better.) 4] And one of the best parts is that it's totally DYI. For example, I actually prefer my WCs cheese-less --it's what I grew up with. Likewise pickles: I prefer fewer pickles (but I've also been thinking about experimenting with bread'n'butter pickles). But now that I'm in charge, I can do it however I like. (Also, I'll mention that if someone wanted to go the complete DYI route, King Arthur Flour has a great recipe for make-your-own slider buns over on their website.) Thanks again

There are 2 types of people who eat Krystals/White Castles, those who like onions and those who are just plain wrong.

[@jimlinkowskl1438]

@@DreamingGypsy you don't state in the ingredients, but do you use low sodium beef broth? Or regular beef broth?

[@kekokid72]

@@johnross1968 i guess ive been wrong all my life . onions are the devils tears😆

I lived in East Orange NJ , we would go to orange to get them White Castle burgers OMG!!!! They are so good , no White Castle down here in Nc.

[@billionaire30xyz36]

Great video!! She explained this process perfectly. We call them Krystal's down south, but yeah, great job!

[@carolinabeacher1558]

crystals are nothing like white castle, ive had both plus others around the us. this is nothing like a real white castle.

[@kylehoy1352]

Any suggestions on buns to use? The recipe was great but it’s not the same with the wrong bun

[@BD-xn2dp]

Followed your recipe. Guess I did something wrong. Mine taste like Krystal's.

[@theyenvyrayy4947]

BD 😂😂 yuckkkk

[@jahjoeka]

Oh noooo!!🤢🤢😭😭

[@livinglifemyway7349]

Looks like a good recipe, going to try this as being from Missouri and now in a state that has NO white castle sucks!

[@DreamingGypsy]

Oh man Craig, you and I both.........!! I'm in MA now, and I have NO White Castle here either.

[@BossStatusFamilia]

I'm so going to try this because I'm a White Castle Feak hahaha.. But i do have 1 Question??? What do you do with the bottom peice of the Bun?? I see you only put the Top bun back in the oven.... Do you put the bottom as well ??? Or they just get added to the burgers when done????

[@BossStatusFamilia]

Thanks :-)

[@bucsrno1]

She toasts the top bun & leaves the bottom cold, just like white castle.

[@sarastenic5880]

Second time I've returned to YOUR RECIPE to make these as the taste is seriously SPOT-ON!!!! 🍔🍔🍔

[@terrillamos9527]

thank you for teaching me i like the video and take care

[@Jonathan-ih9hm]

Watch out we have a Master chef over here.!!! She knows everything, And her way is the only way.

[@DreamingGypsy]

Damn, you're so right............................................but not as right as I am, because I know everything.... BAZINGA! :) LOL

[@Bekind79]

This looks so right, I bet it's spot on. I appreciate this recipe. I'll be trying it when the main football season starts

[@ChozoSR388]

The only difference is that White Castle steams them on a griddle-like appliance in much larger sheets.

[@terrywashburn3852]

I do em a bit differently. Use 1 1/2 pounds of hamburger, this covers the entire pan. And mince a small onion and add it to the meat mixture, don't like all the onions left in the bottom of the pan. Also use 1/3 cup beef broth per I/2 pound of meat. I use a pastry cutter to score the meat before going into the freezer, then break them apart before going into the oven. Makes 16- 1/8" thick burgers. Family loves em.

[@notkeith123]

I find it hard to believe that its only beef in the recipe. No saw dust or bread crumbs or GMO soy granulized monocancerglutomate...?

[@NOMCCBAMA]

Armor makes canned dehydrated beef. You can find it in most grocery stores in the canned meat section in small glass cans. It's great for chipped beef gravy.

[@Rokynutz]

Dehydrated beef.....hmm, I think that's called jerky. I don't know for sure.

[@DreamingGypsy]

Beef Jerky is okay with me... I guess what I meant was that nasty baby food beef.... not dehydrated!

[@fencefirst2722]

Bushwookie NW white castle actuallly uses veal baby food.. Lol.. My dad use to make them back as far as the 80s and we come from White Castle country.. Ex employee spilled the beans..lol

[@ravenmom75]

Dehydrated beef comes in a jar.....and is used for shit on a shingle or used smeared with cream cheese as an appetizer....super yum

[@hansgrueber8169]

Yes, Hormel and Armour Dried Beef are popular brands, my grandmother used to make the chipped beef in a cream sauce, aka "shit on a shingle", lol.

[@lindao7887]

@@DreamingGypsy The nasty baby food beef adds so much real beef flavor tho, should try it, it's not that much in 3/4 lb. of beef.

[@SethVermin]

Wow incredible, I gotta try this. Been a California boy all my life and can't really travel to try White Castle. Will definitely try once my oven works

[@bc1248]

Wow... That really looks like real White Castles.

Dang Bonnie, way to make me feel so extra special.......... I'm all here gassed up brushing my shoulders off like I'm some kind of professional........... Thanks for watching! :)

[@stephaniemcbroom9615]

I will be trying these. Looks delicious. Wow!!!

[@seanspec89]

These were pretty good. Used low sodium broth and couldn't tell the difference

[@elsalisa146]

One? One bag full!

[@jamesmackovich4121]

I too was raised in Chi-town and watched them make these a hundred times. Mix baby food liver in with hamburger meat. Flatten it out to 1/4 in. Chill or freeze it. punch holes all over it. (That helps it cook faster.) Cut into squares. Start with chopped, grilled onions smashed out to a ten by ten in. square. Place meat on top of slightly grilled onions. Salt and pepper all over. When meat starts to turn grey, turn over, and leave onions on top. Split buns and place on top, to steam. When done place each patty on half a bun and place two pickles on top. Top off with other half of bun. I don't eat cheese on 'em.

[@HurricaneMelissa25]

I made these although I added Lipton Onion to the mix also. And they were SO Great!!! Thanks

[@tyhawk9604]

HurricaneMelissa

[@stephenconn8161]

She says at the 3:00 mark NOT to add onion soup mix

[@sallyray5606]

That would be a regular burger

[@NubianP6]

stephen conn I think what she was saying is that although she *did* add it, *she liked it!* I would add it to mine too, because I love be taste of the soup mix in burgers.

[@Cakebattered]

Lipton onion soup mix is essentially beef bullion and onion flakes. The downside is the soup mix has a lot more sodium.

[@timah4477]

best white castle dupe ive found on youtube! thanks! anyone who had been to a white castles and seen them made knowwwsss whats up and how they're made! keep up the good work girlie :D

[@timah4477]

Not perfect, but so very close. Thank you! I've been craving these burgers since I moved to Canada 9 months ago.

[@DreamingGypsy]

Thanks Toria. I strive on having imperfections.......hence my corny jokes :D

[@greenmachine55]

That looks yummy 🤤😋 I saw you only put the top bun in I saw a video from a trip to White Castle one of the chain restaurants and they steam both the top and bottom bun but still when I get a chance can’t wait to try this.

[@ShawnPlusOne]

You put your foot in that sister girl. Lol Those burgers look sooo darn good. Back in the day this Cali girl had an uncle overnight several dozen to us from Cincinnati and they were delicious.

[@michelleevans5531]

Great video on making one of my favorite burgers: White Castle (We don't have them in CA except the frozen type which are not that great) I chuckled at your "Smooshing" and "Easy Peasy" comments!
