Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb Ground beef
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 0.5 tsp Garlic powder
- 0.5 tsp Onion powder
- 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 cup Breadcrumbs
- 0.5 cup Vegetable oil
- 4 slices Cheddar cheese slices
- 4 units Burger buns
- 0.25 cup Mayonnaise
- 0.25 cup Ketchup
- 8 slices Pickles
- 4 leaves Lettuce
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix until just combined. Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape them into patties slightly larger than the size of your buns.
Prepare a breading station with three shallow bowls. Place flour in the first bowl, whisk the eggs in the second bowl, and add the breadcrumbs to the third bowl.
Coat each beef patty in flour, dip it into the beaten eggs, and then coat it thoroughly with breadcrumbs. Set aside on a plate.
Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, carefully add the breaded beef patties to the skillet and fry for 3–4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Place a slice of cheddar cheese on each hot patty so that it slightly melts.
Lightly toast the burger buns in a clean skillet or on a griddle until golden brown.
Spread mayonnaise on the bottom half of each bun and ketchup on the top half.
Assemble the sandwiches by placing a lettuce leaf on the bottom bun, followed by the cheesy beef patty, pickles, and finally the top bun.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Chuck Wagon Sandwich!
