Method

Burger Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beef Patties

    In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Mix gently without overworking the meat. Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape them into patties.

  2. 2

    Cook the Patties

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 3-4 minutes on one side until browned. Flip them over, place a slice of American cheese on top, and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the cheese melts and the burger reaches your desired doneness.

  3. 3

    Toast the Buns

    While the patties are cooking, slice the brioche buns in half and toast them lightly on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.

Special Sauce Preparation

  1. 4

    Make the Special Sauce

    In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard, garlic powder, paprika, and salt. Mix well until smooth and set aside.

Assemble the Burger

  1. 5

    Assemble the Ingredients

    On the bottom half of each toasted brioche bun, spread a generous amount of special sauce. Layer with lettuce leaves, a slice of tomato (sliced into rounds), a cooked beef patty with cheese, and pickles. Top with the other half of the bun.

Serve
