Method

Burger Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beef Patties

    In a large bowl, season the ground beef with salt and pepper. Form into four equal patties, making a slight indentation in the center of each to prevent puffing during cooking.

  2. 2

    Cook the Patties

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on one side, then flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes for medium doneness. During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of Gouda cheese on each patty to melt.

Assembly

  1. 3

    Toast the Brioche Rolls

    While the patties are cooking, lightly toast the brioche rolls on the grill or skillet until golden brown.

  2. 4

    Assemble the Burger

    On the bottom half of each toasted brioche roll, add a generous handful of shredded lettuce. Place the cooked beef patty with melted Gouda on top, followed by a spoonful of tomato-bacon jam, pickled sweet peppers, and crispy onions. Top with the other half of the brioche roll.

Serving

  1. 5

    Serve with a Side

    Serve the burgers with your choice of fries or a side salad.
