    While the burger is cooking, slice the brioche bun in half and lightly toast it on the grill or in a toaster.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Burger

    Once the burger is cooked, place it on the bottom half of the toasted brioche bun. Layer with holiday ham, Mama's pickles, Havarti cheese, and lettuce. Drizzle with Mojo sauce.
