To make the burger patties:

1. Melt the butter in a sauce pan over medium to high heat. Add the the mushrooms and saute for about 10 minutes or until brown and the mushroom juices evaporate. Stir in flour and reduce the heat to medium, cook for another 3 minutes.
2. Whisk in 1 cup of beef broth, then add the rest once incorporated. Add the thyme and reduce the heat to low. Let simmer for about 20 minutes. Sprinkle salt and pepper according to taste.
3. Serve mushroom gravy on top of burger patties. Serve with mashed potatoes or steamed rice.
