Recipe: Garlic Butter Beef Cheeseburger Rollups

Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 25 minutes
Total Time: 40 minutes
Servings: 6

Ingredients

For the Rollups:

  • 1 lb (450g) ground beef (80/20 for best flavor)

  • 1 small onion, finely diced

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce

  • 1 tsp mustard (Dijon or yellow)

  • 1 tsp smoked paprika

  • ½ tsp salt

  • ½ tsp black pepper

  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

  • 6 large flour tortillas (burrito-size)

For the Garlic Butter Glaze:

  • ¼ cup (½ stick) unsalted butter, melted

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped

  • ½ tsp garlic powder

  • ¼ tsp salt

Optional Toppings for Serving:

  • Dill pickles or pickle slices

  • Crispy bacon bits

  • Lettuce or shredded iceberg

  • Ketchup, mustard, or burger sauce


Instructions

Step 1: Cook the Beef Filling

  1. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef, breaking it apart with a spatula, until browned (about 5-6 minutes). Drain excess fat if needed.

  2. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, cooking for another 2-3 minutes until softened.

  3. Stir in the Worcestershire sauce, mustard, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook for 1 more minute, then remove from heat.

  4. Let the beef mixture cool slightly, then mix in the cheddar and mozzarella cheeses.

Step 2: Assemble the Rollups

  1. Lay out a tortilla and spread about ⅓ cup of the beef-cheese mixture evenly over the surface, leaving a small border at the edges.

  2. Roll the tortilla tightly, tucking in the sides as you go. Repeat with remaining tortillas.

Step 3: Prepare the Garlic Butter Glaze

  1. In a small bowl, mix melted butter, minced garlic, parsley, garlic powder, and salt.

Step 4: Cook the Rollups

  1. Heat a clean skillet over medium heat and brush with a little garlic butter.

  2. Place the rollups seam-side down in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden and crispy. Brush with more garlic butter as they cook.

Step 5: Serve & Enjoy!

  1. Remove from heat, let cool slightly, then slice each rollup in half diagonally.

  2. Serve with extra garlic butter for dipping and your favorite burger toppings (pickles, bacon, lettuce, or sauces).


Tips for Success

  • Tortilla Choice: Use burrito-sized tortillas for easier rolling. If they’re too stiff, warm them for 10 seconds in the microwave.

  • Cheese Swap: Try pepper jack, American cheese, or Swiss for different flavors.

  • Make Ahead: Assemble rollups, wrap in foil, and refrigerate for up to 24 hours before cooking.

  • Air Fryer Option: Cook at 375°F (190°C) for 6-8 minutes, brushing with garlic butter halfway through.
