Method

Burger Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Patty

    Form the ground beef into two equal patties. Flatten them slightly to create a thin patty.

  2. 2

    Cook the Patties

    Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 3-4 minutes on one side until browned, then flip and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add Cheese

    In the last minute of cooking, place 2 oz of gruyere cheese and 2 oz of provolone cheese on each patty. Cover the skillet to melt the cheese.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Buns

    Toast the sesame seed buns in the same skillet until golden brown.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Burger

    Spread the secret sauce on the bottom bun, place the patty with melted cheese on top, add charred pickled onion, pickles, and cover with the top bun.
