Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground beef (85% lean)
- 0.33 cup Low sodium BBQ sauce
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 4 pieces Whole wheat burger buns
- 4 leaves Lettuce leaves
- 4 slices Tomato slices
- 4 slices Low sodium cheese slices
- 0.25 cup Red onion slices
Instructions
In a medium bowl, combine the ground beef, low sodium BBQ sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, and ground black pepper. Mix gently until all ingredients are well incorporated.
Divide the beef mixture into four equal parts and shape each into a patty, making sure they are slightly larger than the buns as they will shrink while cooking.
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat and brush the grates with olive oil to prevent the patties from sticking.
Place the patties on the grill and cook for about 4 minutes on each side or until they reach the desired level of doneness. During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of low sodium cheese on each patty and close the grill lid to melt the cheese.
While the patties are grilling, lightly toast the whole wheat burger buns on the grill for about 1 minute or until golden brown.
Assemble the burgers by placing each patty on the bottom half of the toasted bun, followed by a lettuce leaf, a slice of tomato, a few red onion slices, and finally the top half of the bun.
Serve immediately and enjoy your homemade low sodium charbroiled BBQ burger with your favorite side dish or salad.
