Bun

Toppings

Garlic Aioli

House-Made Pickles

Method

Garlic Aioli

  1. 1

    Make the Garlic Aioli

    In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, minced garlic, lemon juice, and salt. Mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.

House-Made Pickles

  1. 2

    Prepare the Pickles

    In a saucepan, combine white vinegar, water, sugar, and salt. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring until sugar and salt are dissolved. Remove from heat and let cool. Slice cucumbers into thin rounds and add to the cooled vinegar mixture along with smashed garlic cloves and dill. Transfer to a jar and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.

Cooking the Beef Patty

  1. 3

    Form the Patty

    In a bowl, combine ground chuck, brisket, and short rib. Season with salt and black pepper. Mix gently and form into an 8oz patty, making a slight indentation in the center to prevent puffing during cooking.

  2. 4

    Cook the Patty

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the beef patty for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until it reaches your desired doneness.

Cooking the Bacon and Egg

  1. 5

    Cook the Bacon

    In a skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove from skillet and drain on paper towels.

  2. 6

    Fry the Egg

    In the same skillet, crack the egg and fry until the whites are set and the yolk is still runny, about 2-3 minutes.

Assembling the Burger

  1. 7

    Assemble the Burger

    Toast the brioche bun lightly. Spread a generous amount of garlic aioli on the bottom half of the bun. Place the cooked beef patty on top, followed by the crispy bacon, fried egg, and cheddar cheese. Top with the other half of the bun.

  2. 8

    Serve

    Serve the burger with a side of house-made pickles. Enjoy your Morning After Burger!
