Burger Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Patties

    In a bowl, season the ground beef with salt and pepper. Form into 4 equal patties. Make a slight indentation in the center of each patty to prevent puffing during cooking.

  2. 2

    Cook the Patties

    Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired doneness. Place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty during the last minute of cooking to melt.

  3. 3

    Toast the Buns

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

  4. 4

    Assemble the Burgers

    Spread a generous amount of smokestack mayo on the bottom half of each toasted bun. Add the cooked patty with melted cheddar, then layer on shredded lettuce, house-made pickles, pickled onions, and fried onion straws. Top with the other half of the bun.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve immediately and enjoy your Smokestack Burger!
