Method

Bun Preparation

  1. 1

    Melt the butter and gently toast the split brioche buns on a skillet or grill until the outsides are golden and the centers are warm.

Patty Formation & Cooking

  1. 2

    Form and Season Patties

    Divide the ground beef into two equal portions and gently form into patties about 3/4 inch thick. Sprinkle with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder on both sides.

  2. 3

    Cook Patties and Melt Cheese

    Cook patties on a preheated grill or skillet over medium-high heat for about 3-4 minutes per side for medium doneness. In the last minute, place cheddar cheese slices on each patty to melt.

Sauce & Toppings

  1. 4

    Prepare Sauce and Prep Toppings

    Stir mayonnaise with ketchup if using as a sauce. Wash and dry the tomato, lettuce, and pickles; slice the tomato and reserve the lettuce leaves and pickle slices for assembly.

Assembly

  1. 5

    Assemble Cheeseburger

    Spread a light layer of sauce on the bottom bun. Layer lettuce, tomato, and pickles. Place the cooked patty with melted cheese on top, add more sauce if desired, and crown with the top bun.
