Method

Prepare the Burger Patties

  1. 1

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix until just combined.

  2. 2

    Form the Patties

    Shape the mixture into 4 equal-sized patties, making a slight indentation in the center of each to prevent them from puffing up while cooking.

Cook the Sweet Italian Sausage

  1. 3

    Cook the Sausage

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the sweet Italian sausage links until browned and fully cooked through, about 10-12 minutes. Remove from the skillet and slice each link into ½-inch pieces.

Grill the Vegetables

  1. 4

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In the same skillet, add olive oil. Once hot, add the sliced bell peppers and onion. Sauté until tender and slightly caramelized, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat.

Cook the Burger Patties

  1. 5

    Grill the Patties

    On a grill or griddle over medium-high heat, cook the burger patties for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness.

  2. 6

    Melt the Cheese

    In the last minute of cooking, place a slice of provolone cheese on each patty and cover until melted.

Assemble the Burger

  1. 7

    Build the Burger

    On each burger bun, layer a cheese-topped patty, followed by the sautéed peppers and onions, and a generous drizzle of Sriracha sauce.

  2. 8

    Serve

    Top with the other half of the bun and serve immediately with your choice of sides.
