Burger Ingredients

Method

Burger Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beef Patty

    In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Form into a single patty, ensuring it's slightly larger than the burger bun as it will shrink while cooking.

  2. 2

    Cook the Patty

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Place the patty on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side. Flip the patty and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes for medium doneness.

  3. 3

    Melt the Cheese

    In the last minute of cooking, place the caciocavallo cheese on top of the patty and close the grill lid or cover the skillet to melt the cheese.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Bun

    While the cheese is melting, lightly toast the burger bun cut side down on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Burger

    Spread the Calabrian chili aioli on the bottom half of the toasted bun. Place the cooked beef patty with melted caciocavallo on top, followed by a generous layer of pickles. Top with the other half of the bun.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Slice the burger in half if desired and serve immediately while hot, paired with your favorite sides.
