Prepare the Burger Patties
In a large bowl, combine ground short rib, ground brisket, and ground chuck. Season with salt and black pepper. Mix gently until well combined.

Form the Patties
Divide the meat mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a round patty, about 3/4 inch thick. Make a slight indentation in the center of each patty with your thumb to prevent them from puffing up during cooking.

Cook the Patties
Preheat your grill or stovetop skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, place the patties on the grill or skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side, then flip and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes for medium doneness. If using cheese, add a slice on top of each patty during the last minute of cooking.

Toast the Buns
While the burgers are cooking, slice the burger buns and toast them on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.

Assemble the Burgers
On the bottom half of each bun, place a lettuce leaf. Add the cooked burger patty with cheese, a slice of tomato, and top with sliced pickles. Add ketchup, mustard, and mayonnaise to taste before placing the top half of the bun.

Serve
Serve the burgers immediately with a side of French fries, onion rings, or soup of the day.
