Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Patties

    Divide the ground beef into two equal portions (1/4 lb each) and shape them into loose balls. Season with salt and pepper.

  2. 2

    Grill the Onions

    Thinly slice the onion and griddle it in a pan over medium heat until caramelized, about 5-7 minutes.

  3. 3

    Cook the Burger Patties

    In a hot skillet or griddle, place the beef balls and smash them down with a spatula to form patties. Cook for about 3-4 minutes per side, adding cheese slices on top in the last minute to melt.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Special Sauce

    In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise, ketchup, Dijon mustard, and pickle relish until well combined.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Burger

    Toast the brioche buns. Spread the special sauce on the bottom bun, add lettuce, tomato slices, the grilled onion, the patties with melted cheese, and pickles. Top with the other half of the bun.
