Method

Prepare Burger Patties

  1. 1

    Season the Patties

    Sprinkle salt and black pepper evenly over both sides of the Beyond Meat burger patties.

  2. 2

    Grill the Patties

    Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Place the seasoned patties on the grill and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until browned and cooked through.

  3. 3

    Add Cheese

    In the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty. Cover the grill or skillet to help the cheese melt.

Prepare Toppings

  1. 4

    Slice the Vegetables

    While the patties are grilling, slice the tomato and onion. Set aside.

  2. 5

    Prepare Lettuce and Pickles

    Wash the lettuce leaves and pat them dry. Slice the dill pickles into rounds.

Toast the Buns

  1. 6

    Butter the Buns

    Spread butter on the inside of each brioche bun.

  2. 7

    Toast on the Grill

    Place the buttered buns on the grill for about 1-2 minutes until golden brown and toasted.

Assemble the Burger

  1. 8

    Layer the Ingredients

    On the bottom half of each toasted bun, place a lettuce leaf, followed by the grilled burger patty with melted cheddar cheese, sliced tomato, onion, dill pickles, and drizzle 1000 Island dressing on top.

  2. 9

    Top with the Bun

    Place the top half of the bun over the assembled toppings to complete the burger.
