Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb Ground beef (80% lean)
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 0.5 tsp Garlic powder
- 0.25 tsp Smoked paprika
- 4 slices Cheddar cheese slices
- 4 pieces Brioche buns
- 2 tbsp Butter
- 4 pieces Lettuce leaves
- 4 slices Tomato slices
- 8 pieces Dill pickles (sliced)
- 4 slices Red onion slices
- 4 tbsp Ketchup
- 4 tbsp Mayonnaise
- 2 tbsp Mustard
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika. Mix gently to avoid overworking the meat.
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each into a patty, about ¾ inch thick. Make a slight indentation in the center of each patty with your thumb to prevent it from puffing up while cooking.
Preheat your grill or a grill pan over medium-high heat. If using a grill, lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
Place the burger patties on the grill and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. Add a slice of cheddar cheese to each patty during the last minute of cooking to melt the cheese.
While the burgers are cooking, melt the butter in a small saucepan or microwave. Brush each half of the brioche buns with the melted butter.
Toast the buttered buns on the grill or in a skillet until golden brown, about 1-2 minutes.
To assemble the burgers, spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise on the bottom half of each brioche bun. Layer with a piece of lettuce, a slice of tomato, 2 pickle slices, and a cooked burger patty.
Top each burger patty with a slice of red onion, a drizzle of ketchup, and ½ tablespoon of mustard (or adjust according to taste).
Finish by placing the top half of the brioche bun on each burger.
Serve immediately with your favorite sides like fries or a fresh salad, and enjoy!
