Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground beef (80/20)
- 0.5 pound Ground pork
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 4 slices Cheddar cheese slices
- 4 pieces Hamburger buns
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 4 pieces Lettuce leaves
- 1 large Tomato
- 0.5 medium-sized Red onion
- 8 slices Pickles
- 4 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 4 tablespoons Ketchup
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, ground pork, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, black pepper, and Worcestershire sauce. Mix gently with your hands until just combined; do not overmix.
Divide the meat mixture into 4 equal portions and shape into burger patties, about 1/2-inch thick. Use your thumb to make a small indentation in the center of each patty to prevent puffing during cooking.
Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the surface if not non-stick.
Cook the patties for 3-4 minutes on the first side. Flip them over and cook for another 3-4 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C) for well-done burgers.
During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty to melt. Cover the skillet with a lid or aluminum foil to help the cheese melt evenly.
While the patties are cooking, butter the insides of the hamburger buns. Toast them in a separate skillet or toaster until golden brown and slightly crisp.
Slice the tomato and red onion thinly. Prepare your toppings by laying out the lettuce leaves, sliced tomato, red onion, and pickle slices.
Assemble the Woofer Burgers: Spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise on the bottom half of each bun and 1 tablespoon of ketchup on the top half. Place the cooked patty on the bottom half, followed by lettuce, tomato slices, red onion, and pickles. Top with the upper bun.
Serve immediately with your favorite sides, such as fries or a fresh salad. Enjoy!
