Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb Ground beef (80% lean, 20% fat)
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 4 slices Cheddar cheese slices
- 4 whole Burger buns
- 4 whole Lettuce leaves
- 8 whole Tomato slices
- 8 slices Pickles
- 4 tbsp Mayonnaise
- 2 tbsp Ketchup
- 2 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tbsp Vegetable oil
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently, being careful not to overwork the meat.
Divide the beef mixture into 8 equal portions and shape each portion into thin, individual patties to ensure they cook evenly.
Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat and add the vegetable oil.
Place the patties in the skillet or on the grill, cooking them in batches if necessary. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side until browned and cooked through.
In the final minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each patty to let it melt.
Lightly toast the burger buns on the grill or in the skillet to warm them up.
Mix the mayonnaise, ketchup, and Dijon mustard in a small bowl to create the burger sauce.
To assemble the burgers, spread the burger sauce on the bottom and top halves of each bun.
Place one cheese-covered patty on the bottom bun, followed by a second patty.
Top the patties with lettuce leaves, tomato slices, and pickles.
Place the top bun on the burger to complete the assembly.
Serve the Double Decker Burgers immediately with your favorite sides like fries or a salad.
