Hubcap Burger Recipe

Hubcap Burger – Directions

1. 1

   Prepare hubcap sauce

   In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, ketchup, and yellow mustard until smooth. Set aside.

2. 2

   Toast buns

   Split the brioche buns and lightly toast the cut sides in a dry skillet over medium heat until golden and fragrant, about 1–2 minutes.

3. 3

   Season beef and form patties

   In a bowl, gently combine ground beef with Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Divide into two equal discs about 3/4 inch thick and slightly wider than the buns; press a shallow dent in the center of each patty to prevent puffing.

4. 4

   Caramelize onions

   In a skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add sliced onion with a pinch of salt and cook, stirring occasionally, 8–10 minutes until deep golden and soft. Set aside.

5. 5

   Cook patties

   Heat vegetable oil in a heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties 3–4 minutes per side for medium, flipping only once. In the last minute, lay a cheese slice on each patty to melt.

6. 6

   Assemble hubcap

   Spread hubcap sauce on the bottom buns. Layer lettuce, tomato, and pickle on each bottom bun. Place the cheesy patties on top, then pile on caramelized onions. Cap with the top buns.

7. 7

   Serve

   Serve immediately with sides of fries or chips. Optionally add extra pickle slices.
