- Eggs
- Wheat

In this extra-savory spin on burger night, spicy Old Bay seasoning and savory Worcestershire sauce add oomph to beef patties. Sizzle 'em up to perfection, add cheddar slices, then tuck them into golden toasted brioche buns spread with what we call “Old Bay-oli”—that’s mayo, mustard, garlic, and Old Bay! Serve with corn on the cob and seasoned potato wedges for a meal that satisfies.

Cooking Steps
-
Adjust rack to middle position and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce.
-
Cut potatoes into ½-inch-thick wedges. Toss on a baking sheet with a large drizzle of oil, salt, and pepper.
-
Roast on middle rack until browned and tender, 20-25 minutes.
-
Meanwhile, thinly slice tomato into rounds.
-
In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, mustard, 1 tsp water, ½ tsp garlic powder, and ½ tsp Old Bay Seasoning (2 tsp water, 1 tsp garlic powder, and 1 tsp Old Bay Seasoning for 4 servings). Set aside until ready to use in Step 4.
-
In a large bowl, combine beef*, ½ tsp Old Bay Seasoning, and ¼ tsp Worcestershire sauce (1 tsp Old Bay Seasoning and ½ tsp Worcestershire sauce for 4 servings). (Save any remaining Old Bay Seasoning and Worcestershire sauce for another use!)
-
Form beef mixture into two patties (four patties for 4), each slightly wider than a burger bun. Season lightly with pepper.
-
Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add patties and cook until browned and cooked to desired doneness, 3-5 minutes per side.
-
In the last 1-2 minutes of cooking, top each patty with cheddar; cover pan until cheese melts.
-
While burgers cook, halve corn crosswise (skip if pre-halved). Wrap corn in damp paper towels. Microwave until kernels have softened and corn is cooked through, 3-4 minutes. Let rest for 1 minute.
-
Halve and toast buns until golden.
-
Spread a thin layer of Old Bay aioli on cut sides of bottom buns. Top with patties, tomato slices, and top buns.
-
Divide burgers, corn, and potato wedges between plates. Serve with remaining aioli on the side for dipping.
Customer reviews
Review summary
Updated on Sep 2026- Flavor: The Old Bay aioli was a clear crowd-pleaser, adding bold, savory flavor that elevated the whole meal. Some found the Old Bay overpowering in the burger itself — use a lighter hand if you prefer a milder taste.
- Ease of prep: This is a straightforward burger night meal that even beginner cooks handled confidently; grilling the burgers and potatoes is a great option if you have access to an outdoor grill.
- Suggestions: Toast the buns in the burger drippings for extra flavor, and boil the corn briefly then finish with Old Bay and butter instead of microwaving for a tastier result. Add bacon, lettuce, or pickles to build out the burger if you want more toppings.
- Portions: One ear of corn split between two people felt skimpy to many reviewers — a full ear per serving would make a big difference. Potato sizes were sometimes too small to make proper wedges.
- Corn: Microwaving the corn worked well for some, but others preferred boiling or baking it for better texture and flavor — both methods are worth trying 🌽.
- Potatoes: Potatoes often needed significantly longer than the 20–25 minutes stated; check for tenderness and add time as needed, especially if wedges are thick.
Reviews from our home cooks
Old Bay aioli is yummy! It really ties all the flavors together. The ground beef is tender and holds together well. Brioche buns toasted nicely and held up well. The one ear of corn in the package was hilarious, but tasty. Potatoes creamy on the inside and crispy on the outside.
Always a hit. Love the addition of the corn. I did prepare the corn differently than on the instructions. I boiled for a few minutes then tossed in some Old Bay and butter.
The sauce on this burger makes it so juicy! Love the deep flavors in the burger alongside cheddar cheese! I would have loved the whole ear of corn...Hello Fresh- corn is very cheap!
This burger is a favorite of ours, but I love the corn on the cob added in, instead of just the usual potatoes. Definite improvement. When corn goes out of season, maybe some salad greens?
Needed another ear of corn. Also added all the old bay to the burgers. I always suggest a bun should be grilled or toasted. I cooked it in the burger drippings.
Nice to have the potato and the corn. Unfortunately, I was not a fan of the old bay seasoning though. I don't recall having it before except on seafood...so that is on me. :) However the corn and fries was AWESOME combo for the meal.
We cook a lot of burgers using different recipes, but the Chesapeake Cheddar Burgers were fantastic. We will definitely order this meal again in the future.
So amazing. I never thought to use Old Bay in anything but fish. The corn on the cob ends were starting to get a little moldy, but I chopped the ends off.
Liked the corn on the cob. Didn't care for the ketchup sauce. Buns overpowered the burger. A bit dry.
