Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb Ground Wagyu beef
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 0.5 tsp Garlic powder
- 1 tbsp Olive oil
- 4 Gluten-free burger buns
- 4 slices Sliced cheddar cheese (optional)
- 4 Lettuce leaves
- 1 Tomato, sliced
- 0.5 Red onion, sliced into rings
- 4 tbsp Mayonnaise
- 4 tbsp Ketchup
- 8 slices Pickles
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, gently combine the ground Wagyu beef, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Be careful not to overwork the meat, as this can make the burger dense.
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each into a patty about 3/4 inch thick. Use your thumb to create a shallow indentation in the center of each patty to prevent puffing up during cooking.
Heat a large cast-iron skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat, then add the olive oil.
Place the burger patties in the skillet or on the grill. Cook for 3-4 minutes on the first side without pressing down on the meat.
Flip the patties and cook for another 3-4 minutes for medium-rare, or longer if desired. If using cheese, place a slice on each patty during the last minute of cooking to allow it to melt.
While the patties are cooking, toast the gluten-free buns in a separate skillet or toaster until golden brown.
Assemble the burgers by spreading mayonnaise and ketchup on the bottom half of each bun. Layer with lettuce, a slice of tomato, a few onion rings, and two pickle slices.
Place the cooked Wagyu patties on top of the vegetables, then add the top half of the buns.
Serve immediately with your favorite gluten-free sides, such as sweet potato fries or a salad.
