Method

Burger Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Beef

    Form the ground beef into a patty. Season with salt and pepper. Grill or pan-fry the patty over medium-high heat for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium doneness.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Truffle Mayo

    In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, truffle oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until smooth.

  3. 3

    Toast the Bun

    While the burger is cooking, toast the brioche bun on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Burger

    Spread the truffle mayo on the bottom half of the toasted bun. Place the cooked burger patty on top, add the slice of aged cheddar cheese, and top with the other half of the bun.

Fries Preparation

  1. 5

    Cook the Fries

    Prepare frozen French fries according to package instructions, either baking or frying until golden and crispy.
