A bold and playful twist on a childhood classic: juicy beef patties paired with creamy peanut butter and fruity jam, sandwiched in a buttery toasted bun for a sweet, savory, and utterly satisfying experience.

  • Total Time: 18 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground beef (80/20)
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 4 tbsp creamy or crunchy peanut butter
  • 4 tbsp jelly or jam (grape, strawberry, or jalapeño)
  • 4 brioche buns
  • Optional: beef jam, jalapeño slices, sharp cheddar, as desired

Instructions

  1. Form the beef into 4 equal patties; season generously with salt and pepper.
  2. Grill or pan‑fry over medium‑high heat for 3–4 minutes per side for medium doneness.
  3. Lightly butter the buns and toast until golden.
  4. Spread peanut butter on the bottom bun, jelly on the top bun, then place the cooked patty in between.
  5. Optionally, add beef jam, sliced jalapeños, or sharp cheddar to customize.

Notes

Feel free to experiment with different jam flavors like fig or spicy variants. Try adding sharp cheddar or homemade beef jam for extra depth. Serve immediately while buns are warm and patties juicy.
