Method

Burger Patty Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine ground beef, Italian sausage, finely chopped onion, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.

  2. 2

    Form Patties

    Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape each portion into a patty.

Chili Preparation

  1. 3

    Cook Chili Base

    In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onion and minced garlic, cooking until softened, about 3-4 minutes.

  2. 4

    Add Beef

    Add ground beef to the pot and cook until browned, breaking it apart as it cooks, about 5-7 minutes.

  3. 5

    Add Remaining Ingredients

    Stir in kidney beans, diced tomatoes, chili powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Cooking the Burger

  1. 6

    Cook Patties

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the burger patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness.

  2. 7

    Add Cheese

    During the last minute of cooking, place shredded cheddar cheese on top of each patty, cover, and allow the cheese to melt.

Assembly

  1. 8

    Prepare Buns

    While the patties are cooking, toast the hamburger buns on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.

  2. 9

    Assemble Burgers

    Spread mustard on the bottom half of each bun. Place the cheeseburger patty on top, then generously spoon the chili over the cheese. Top with pickle slices and close the burger with the top half of the bun.
