Preparation

Step 1

1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F and preheat the grill.
2. Mix the ground beef, onion, steak seasoning, and seasoning sauce together,form into 5 small flat patties. Grill the hamburgers to medium-well. (You may also pan-fry the patties.) Remove from the grill and top each burger with a slice of cheese of your choice.
3. Roll the puff pastry sheet to flatten slightly. Cut it into 5 relatively even rectangles. Cover each burger with a piece of puff pastry and wrap it around the bottom, pinching all of the edges to seal. Place on an un-greased baking sheet, pinched side down.
4. Whisk together the egg yolk and 1 teaspoon water to make an egg wash. Brush each wrapped pastry with the egg wash.
5. Bake for about 15 minutes, until the puff pastry is nice and brown.
