Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb Ground beef (80/20)
- 1 medium White onion, finely diced
- 0.25 cup Water
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Freshly ground black pepper
- 8 Slider-sized bread buns
- 8 American cheese slices (optional)
- 8 Pickle slices
- as desired Ketchup (optional)
- as desired Mustard (optional)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, gently combine the ground beef, finely diced onion, water, salt, and black pepper. Be careful not to overmix to avoid tough burgers.
Divide the beef mixture into 8 equal portions and shape each into a thin patty, roughly the size of slider buns. Cover and refrigerate for 10 minutes to help them hold their shape.
Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium-low heat. No need to add oil or butter, as the fat from the beef will be sufficient.
Place the patties onto the hot skillet and cook for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are browned and cooked through. Avoid pressing down on the patties to retain their juiciness.
If using cheese, place a slice on each patty during the last 30 seconds of cooking to allow it to melt.
Lightly toast the slider buns during this time in a separate skillet or toaster, if desired.
Assemble the burgers by placing each patty onto the bottom half of a bun. Add a pickle slice and condiments like ketchup or mustard, if using. Top with the other half of the bun.
Serve immediately and enjoy these classic Little Tavern Shops-style hamburgers!
