Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound brisket, coarsely ground
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.25 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 2 tablespoons ghee
- 8 large iceberg lettuce leaves
- 1 large tomato, sliced
- 0.5 medium red onion, thinly sliced
- 4 slices dill pickles
- 1 large avocado, sliced
- 2 tablespoons whole30 compliant mustard
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine the coarsely ground brisket with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika. Mix gently until seasonings are evenly distributed.
Form the meat mixture into four equal-sized patties, making a slight depression in the center of each to help them cook evenly.
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt the ghee.
Add the burger patties to the skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the burgers reach your desired level of doneness.
While the burgers are cooking, prepare the toppings. Separate and wash large iceberg lettuce leaves, slice the tomato and red onion, and cut the avocado.
Once the burgers are cooked, assemble the Whole30 brisket burgers by placing each patty onto a large lettuce leaf.
Top each burger with slices of tomato, red onion, dill pickle, and avocado.
Drizzle with Whole30 compliant mustard.
Wrap the burger with another lettuce leaf and serve immediately.
