Get the satisfaction of delicious low-carb bunless burger recipes without all the tons of carbs that come with buns, and enjoy summer with these lighter recipes. And as a bonus, they all come with a lot of veggies 😉
- A large bowl to mix all the ingredients together.
- A grill pan if you don’t have a BBQ. I love this one because it’s cast iron that creates a uniform heat distribution and makes authentic grill marks. It’s compatible with all cook tops, including induction, it’s oven safe, and it’s easy to hold with the side handles. I have one and I use it all the time.
- A BBQ – you don’t need to have one to make these burgers since you can make them using a grill pan, but if you have a BBQ, you can make your burgers on a BBQ and they will be delicious. I love this small one from Weber because I live in a condo, so it fits perfectly on my patio. And it really does an excellent job.
- A food Thermometer – It’s essential to make sure your food reaches a safe internal temperature to eat. So, if you prefer your burger to be medium rare, the internal temperature should be around 140°F. Or if you like your burger medium well, a temperature of 150 to 155°F is perfect. And if you are like me and prefer a well-done burger, the best temperature is 160 to 165°F.
So, let’s jump to the recipes and make these delicious low-carb bunless burger recipes this summer 😉

If you can throw back a couple of burgers this summer and still have the energy to hit your gym or 6-mile run, we bow down – you’re a lucky soul. But if indulging in 10 minutes of grilled heaven equates to that heavy, bloated, tired feeling… you’re not alone. It’s not the juicy beef patty that gives you that awful post-indulgence feeling, however. (We’re all about beefy protein, after all.) The culprit is that starchy, high-glycemic, carb-heavy burger bun. Darn you, bun. You taste good, too. Thankfully, you’ve got choices.
These burgers look totally awesome I am a 69 year old woman with diabetes and looking for different low carb meals. Thx for the recipes. Will have to use a skillet.
You’re very welcome. Happy you like them!
