Burger Assembly

Method

Prepare the Garlic Mayo

  1. 1

    Make the Garlic Mayo

    In a medium bowl, combine mayonnaise, minced garlic, and lemon juice. Mix well and set aside.

Cook the Mushrooms & Onions

  1. 2

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add sliced mushrooms and chopped onion. Sauté until the mushrooms are golden brown and onions are caramelized, about 8-10 minutes. Stir in thyme and season with salt and pepper.

Prepare the Burger Patties

  1. 3

    Form the Patties

    In a bowl, mix ground beef and ground pork together. Season with salt and pepper. Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and form into patties.

  2. 4

    Cook the Patties

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side, until they reach your desired doneness.

Melt the Cheese

  1. 5

    Add Cheese to Patties

    During the last minute of cooking the patties, place a slice of Havarti cheese and a slice of White American cheese on top of each patty. Cover with a lid to allow the cheese to melt.

Assemble the Burger

  1. 6

    Build the Umami Bomb

    Toast the burger buns lightly. Spread a generous amount of garlic mayo on both the top and bottom buns. On the bottom bun, layer arugula and butter leaf lettuce. Place the cheesy patty on top, followed by the sautéed mushrooms and onions. Top with the other half of the bun.
