Cheeseburger Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the patties

    In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, and black pepper. Form the mixture into two equal-sized patties, making a small indent in the center of each.

  2. 2

    Heat the skillet

    Heat a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chipotle garlic oil and let it warm up.

  3. 3

    Cook the patties

    Place the patties in the skillet and sear for about 3-4 minutes on one side until a crust forms. Flip the patties and cook for an additional 3 minutes.

  4. 4

    Add cheese

    During the last minute of cooking, place the Oaxaca cheese on top of the patties to melt.

  5. 5

    Prepare the buns

    While the cheese melts, toast the southern buns in the skillet until golden brown.

  6. 6

    Assemble the cheeseburgers

    On the bottom half of each bun, place a cheeseburger patty, top with slices of Texas tomato, a handful of arugula, and cover with the top half of the bun.
