Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef (80% lean, 20% fat)
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 4 slices cheddar cheese slices
- 8 leaves large lettuce leaves
- 0.25 cup sugar-free BBQ sauce
- 8 slices sugar-free pickles
- 1 medium tomato
- 0.5 medium red onion
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your grill or stovetop grill pan over medium-high heat.
In a large bowl, combine the ground beef with salt, ground black pepper, smoked paprika, and garlic powder. Mix gently with your hands until the seasonings are just combined. Be careful not to overwork the meat to avoid tough patties.
Divide the seasoned beef into four equal portions and form them into patties slightly larger than the cheese slices, as they will shrink slightly during cooking.
Brush the grill or grill pan with olive oil to prevent sticking.
Place the patties on the grill and cook for about 3-5 minutes on each side, depending on your desired level of doneness. During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty and close the grill lid, or cover with a pan lid to melt the cheese.
While the burgers are cooking, slice the tomato and red onion into thin rounds.
To assemble the burgers, take two lettuce leaves and use them to wrap each cooked patty.
Top each patty with a spoonful of sugar-free BBQ sauce, two pickle slices, a tomato slice, and one or two rings of red onion.
Serve immediately and enjoy your flavorful low carb charbroiled BBQ burger!
