Sub Ingredients

Toppings

Method

Preparing the Patties

  1. 1

    Mix the Ground Beef

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Mix thoroughly using your hands or a spoon until well combined.

  2. 2

    Form Patties

    Divide the beef mixture into four equal portions and shape each portion into a patty, about ½ inch thick.

Cooking the Patties

  1. 3

    Grill the Patties

    Preheat your grill or stovetop grill pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, place the patties on the grill and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired doneness.

  2. 4

    Add Cheese

    During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of American cheese on each patty and close the grill lid to melt the cheese.

Assembling the Sub

  1. 5

    Prepare the Sub Rolls

    While the patties are cooking, slice the submarine rolls in half lengthwise without cutting all the way through, ensuring they remain connected on one side.

  2. 6

    Add the Patties

    Once the patties are cooked and cheese is melted, place one patty into each sub roll.

  3. 7

    Layer Toppings

    Top each burger with a handful of lettuce, slices of tomato, onion rings, and pickles.

  4. 8

    Add Condiments

    Drizzle ketchup and mustard evenly over the toppings in each sub.

Grilling the Subs

  1. 9

    Grill the Assembled Subs

    Place the assembled subs back on the grill for about 2-3 minutes, or until the bread is toasted and the toppings are heated through.
