A touch of Worcestershire sauce and garlic powder in the patty mix for extra depth of flavor.

- Ingredients:
- For the patties:
- 1 lb (450g) ground beef (80/20 blend for juiciness)
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1 tbsp olive oil (for cooking)
- For assembling:
- 4 hamburger buns
- 4 slices cheddar cheese (or preferred cheese)
- 1 large tomato, sliced
- 4 lettuce leaves
- 1/4 red onion, thinly sliced
- 4 pickle slices
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tbsp ketchup
- 1 tsp mustard
Instructions
- :
- Prepare the patties: In a bowl, mix the ground beef, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Form into 4 equal-sized patties, pressing them slightly thinner in the center to prevent bulging while cooking.
- Cook the burgers: Heat a large skillet or grill over medium-high heat. Add a little olive oil and cook the patties for about 3-4 minutes per side or until they reach your desired doneness. Add cheese slices during the last minute and cover to melt.
- Toast the buns: While the burgers cook, lightly toast the buns in a dry pan or on the grill for extra flavor.
- Make the burger sauce: In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise, ketchup, and mustard.
- Assemble the burgers: Spread the sauce on the bottom buns, then layer with lettuce, tomato slices, cooked patties, red onion, and pickles. Add the top bun and serve immediately.
Notes
- :
- Use brioche buns for a slightly sweet and buttery flavor.
- For an extra twist, add crispy bacon or caramelized onions.
- Swap out beef for turkey or plant-based patties for a lighter option.
