1
Preheat your grill or stovetop skillet over medium-high heat.
2
While the grill is heating, shape the ground beef into an 8 oz patty. Make an indentation in the center of the patty to prevent it from puffing up during cooking.

3
Place the burger patty on the hot grill or skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side.
4
Flip the patty and immediately place a slice of American cheese on top. Cook for another 3-4 minutes for medium doneness.

5
While the burger is finishing cooking, slice the artisan roll in half and lightly toast the cut sides on the grill or skillet.
6
Once the burger is cooked, place it on the bottom half of the toasted roll.
7
Layer the pickles, shredded lettuce, chopped red onion, and max sauce on top of the burger.
8
Top with the other half of the roll to complete the burger.
