Garlic Butter Cheeseburger Roll-Ups (Carnivore Recipe)
These Garlic Butter Cheeseburger Roll-Ups are a rich, juicy, zero-carb comfort food made completely carnivore-friendly—no flour, no fillers, just meat, cheese, and buttery goodness. They’re crispy on the outside, stuffed with melty cheese inside, and brushed with flavorful garlic butter for that irresistible finish.
🧾 Ingredients (Serves 3–4)
For the Rolls:
- 500g (1 lb) ground beef (80/20 for best flavor)
- 1 large egg
- ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
- Salt (to taste)
Filling:
- 100–150g mozzarella cheese (sticks or cubes)
Garlic Butter:
- 3 tbsp unsalted butter (melted)
- 2–3 garlic cloves, finely minced (optional for strict carnivore)
- Pinch of salt
👨🍳 Instructions
1. Prepare the Beef Base
In a bowl, combine ground beef, egg, shredded cheddar, and salt. Mix gently until just combined (don’t overmix or it gets dense).
2. Shape the Roll-Ups
- Divide mixture into equal portions
- Flatten each portion into a thin oval or rectangle
- Place mozzarella in the center
- Roll tightly like a log and seal edges well
3. Bake
- Preheat oven to 190°C (375°F)
- Place rolls seam-side down on a lined baking tray
- Bake for 20–25 minutes until browned and cooked through
4. Make Garlic Butter
While baking, melt butter and mix with minced garlic and a pinch of salt.
5. Finish with Flavor
- Remove rolls from oven
- Brush generously with garlic butter
- Optional: broil 2–3 minutes for a golden, slightly crispy finish
6. Rest & Serve
Let rest for 5 minutes before slicing—this keeps the juices and melted cheese inside.
🍽️ Serving Suggestions
- Serve with fried eggs for a full carnivore plate
