Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 patties Wagyu beef patty (70-80% lean)
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 4 slices Cheddar cheese slices (optional)
- 2 tablespoons Avocado oil
- 8 leaves Lettuce leaves
- 1 whole Avocado
- 4 tablespoons Mayonnaise (sugar-free)
- 4 teaspoons Sugar-free ketchup
- 4 slices Pickles (optional)
- 4 slices Tomato slices
- 4 slices Red onion slices
Instructions
Preheat a grill, griddle, or skillet over medium-high heat.
Season the Wagyu beef patties evenly on both sides with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Add the avocado oil to the grill or skillet and allow it to heat up slightly.
Place the seasoned Wagyu beef patties onto the hot surface and cook for 3-4 minutes on one side.
Flip the patties and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes on the other side, or until the internal temperature reaches 130°F (54°C) for medium-rare. Adjust the cooking time to your preferred doneness.
If desired, add a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each patty during the last minute of cooking and cover with a lid to melt the cheese.
While the patties rest, prepare the burger assembly. Wash and pat dry the lettuce leaves to serve as a bun replacement.
Slice the avocado and prepare the desired toppings: sugar-free mayonnaise, sugar-free ketchup, pickles, tomato slices, and red onion slices.
For each burger, layer two lettuce leaves on the bottom to act as the base 'bun.'
Place a cooked Wagyu beef patty on top of the lettuce, followed by avocado slices, mayonnaise, ketchup, pickles, tomato slices, and red onion slices.
Top the burger with two more lettuce leaves to create the 'bun' top, and secure it with a toothpick if necessary.
Serve immediately and enjoy your flavorful Keto Wagyu Beef Burger!
