Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb Ground Angus Beef
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black Pepper
- 0.5 tsp Garlic Powder
- 4 slices Cheddar Cheese Slices
- 8 leaves Romaine Lettuce Leaves
- 1 medium Tomato
- 0.5 small Red Onion
- 4 slices Pickles
- 0.25 cup Mayonnaise
- 2 tbsp Mustard
Instructions
Preheat your grill or skillet to medium-high heat.
In a bowl, combine the ground Angus beef, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix well.
Divide the beef mixture into 4 equal parts and shape each into a patty about 3/4 inch thick.
Place the patties on the preheated grill or skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on the first side.
Flip the patties and place a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each patty. Cook for an additional 4-5 minutes or until desired doneness is reached and the cheese has melted.
While the patties are cooking, prepare the toppings. Slice the tomato into thin rounds and the red onion into thin rings.
Lay 2 large romaine lettuce leaves per burger on each plate, these will serve as your 'bun.'
Spread mayonnaise onto one leaf and mustard on the other leaf for each burger.
Place the cooked cheeseburger patty on top of the mayo-coated leaf.
Top each patty with tomato slices, red onion rings, and a pickle slice.
Finish with the mustard-coated romaine leaf on top, forming a lettuce wrap.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Keto Classic Angus Cheeseburger.
