Method

Burger Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beef Patties

    In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.

  2. 2

    Form Patties

    Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a patty, slightly larger than the burger buns to allow for shrinkage during cooking.

  3. 3

    Cook the Patties

    Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium doneness, or until cooked to your desired level.

House Sauce Preparation

  1. 4

    Make the House Sauce

    In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard, and pickle relish until well combined. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Fries Preparation

  1. 5

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Wash and peel the potatoes. Cut them into even-sized sticks (about 1 cm thick) for even cooking.

  2. 6

    Bake the Fries

    Preheat your oven to 220°C (425°F). Toss the potato sticks with olive oil and salt, then spread them out in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.

Assemble the Burger

  1. 7

    Build the Burger

    Toast the burger buns on the grill or in a toaster. Spread a generous amount of house sauce on the bottom bun, add a lettuce leaf, place the cooked beef patty on top, add slices of tomato, and finally, cover with the top bun.
