Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Burger Patties

    In a bowl, mix the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Form the mixture into two equal-sized patties.

  2. 2

    Cook the Burgers

    Heat olive oil in a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the burger patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until they reach your desired level of doneness.

  3. 3

    Melt the Cheese

    During the last minute of cooking, top each burger with shredded cheddar cheese and cover to allow the cheese to melt.

  4. 4

    Toast the Buns

    While the burgers are cooking, toast the burger buns on a separate pan until golden brown.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Burger

    Place each cooked burger on a toasted bun, top with a generous scoop of brisket chili, sliced red onion, and the top half of the bun.
