Let’s Get Cooking: Ingredients You’ll Need

Here’s what you’ll need to make these amazing Garlic Butter Beef Cheeseburger Rollups. Don’t be intimidated by the list – most of these are pantry staples.

• 1 pound ground beef: I prefer using lean ground beef (85/15) to avoid excess grease.
• 1 package (8 count) crescent roll dough: You can use the refrigerated kind or the sheets. If using sheets, you’ll just need to cut them into triangles.
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese: Feel free to experiment with other cheeses like Monterey Jack, Colby Jack, or even a blend.
• 4 tablespoons butter: Unsalted butter is best, so you can control the amount of salt in the recipe.
• 4 cloves garlic, minced: Fresh garlic is a must! Don’t even think about using the jarred stuff.
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce: This adds a savory depth of flavor.
• 1 teaspoon dried parsley: For a pop of color and freshness.
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder: Because you can never have too much garlic!
• 1/4 teaspoon salt: Or to taste.
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper: Or to taste.
• Optional toppings: Sesame seeds, everything bagel seasoning, chopped green onions.

Step-by-Step Instructions: Making the Magic Happen

Alright, let’s get down to business. Here’s how to make these Garlic Butter Beef Cheeseburger Rollups, step by step. Don’t worry, it’s easier than it looks!

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
2. Brown the ground beef: In a large skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat, breaking it up with a spoon, until it’s browned and no longer pink. Drain off any excess grease.
3. Season the beef: Stir in the Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well and set aside.
4. Prepare the garlic butter: In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Add the minced garlic and parsley and cook for about 1-2 minutes, until the garlic is fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic!
5. Assemble the rollups: Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate the triangles. Spoon a generous amount of the seasoned ground beef onto the wide end of each triangle. Top with a sprinkle of shredded cheddar cheese.
6. Roll ’em up: Starting at the wide end, roll up each triangle towards the point. Place the rollups on the prepared baking sheet, point side down.
7. Brush with garlic butter: Brush the tops of the rollups with the garlic butter. You might have some garlic butter leftover – that’s okay! You can use it for dipping later.
8. Bake: Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the rollups are golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
9. Garnish and serve: Remove the rollups from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with sesame seeds, everything bagel seasoning, or chopped green onions, if desired. Serve with your favorite dipping sauces, like ketchup, mustard, or ranch dressing.

Tips and Tricks for Perfect Rollups

Okay, friend, let’s talk about some insider secrets to make these Garlic Butter Beef Cheeseburger Rollups even better.

• Don’t overfill the rollups: This is a common mistake. If you put too much filling, the rollups will be difficult to roll and the filling might spill out during baking.
• Seal the edges: Pinch the edges of the rollups to seal them and prevent the filling from leaking.
• Use a pizza cutter: If you’re using crescent roll sheets, a pizza cutter is your best friend for cutting them into even triangles.
• Don’t overbake: Overbaking will result in dry, hard rollups. Keep a close eye on them and remove them from the oven as soon as they’re golden brown.
• Get creative with the fillings: Add chopped onions, bell peppers, mushrooms, or jalapenos to the ground beef for extra flavor and texture.
• Make it cheesy: For extra cheesy rollups, sprinkle some extra cheese on top before baking.

Variations: Spice Things Up!

The beauty of these Garlic Butter Beef Cheeseburger Rollups is that they’re so versatile. Here are a few ideas to get you started:

• Spicy Rollups: Add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the ground beef or use pepper jack cheese.
• Pizza Rollups: Add pepperoni, mozzarella cheese, and pizza sauce.
• Taco Rollups: Use taco-seasoned ground beef, cheddar cheese, and salsa.
• Buffalo Chicken Rollups: Use shredded chicken tossed in buffalo sauce, blue cheese crumbles, and ranch dressing.
• Bacon Cheeseburger Rollups: Cook and crumble some bacon and add it to the ground beef and cheese mixture.

Serving Suggestions: Complete the Meal

These Garlic Butter Beef Cheeseburger Rollups are delicious on their own, but they’re even better when served with some tasty sides. Here are a few of my favorites:

• French fries: A classic pairing!
• Sweet potato fries: A healthier and equally delicious option.
• Onion rings: Crispy and flavorful.
• Coleslaw: Adds a cool and refreshing contrast to the rich rollups.
• Salad: A light and healthy option.
• Mac and cheese: A comforting and kid-friendly side.
