BURGERS

1 pound grass fed beef patty

2 pieces buttered hamburger buns

2 leaves leafy romaine lettuce

1 medium ripe tomato

1 medium red onion

4 slices dill pickles

2 tablespoons Mayonnaise

2 tablespoons Ketchup

1 tablespoon Mustard

1 teaspoon Watkins garlic powder

1 teaspoon Celtic sea salt

1 teaspoon black pepper

Method

BURGERS

Prepare the Special Sauce

In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir well until all ingredients are mixed thoroughly. Set aside.

Prepare the Beef Patty

In a bowl, season the grass-fed beef with salt and black pepper. Form the beef into a patty shape, making it slightly larger than the hamburger buns as it will shrink during cooking.

Cook the Beef Patty

Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, place the beef patty on the grill. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side until browned, then flip and cook for an additional 4-5 minutes for medium doneness or until your desired level of doneness is reached.

Toast the Buns

While the patty is cooking, butter the inside of the hamburger buns. In a separate skillet or on the grill, place the buns cut-side down and toast until golden brown, about 1-2 minutes.

Assemble the Burger

Spread a generous amount of the special sauce on the bottom half of each toasted bun. Layer with romaine lettuce, followed by the cooked beef patty. Add slices of tomato, red onion, and dill pickles. Top with the other half of the bun.

Serve

Serve the burgers immediately while they are hot and enjoy with your favorite sides.
