Servings: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 2 pounds ground chuck
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 8 slices cheddar cheese
- 16 slices dill pickles
- 1/4 cup chopped red onions
- 2 tablespoons mustard
- 2 tablespoons ketchup
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the ground chuck with salt and black pepper. Mix gently until just combined. Divide the mixture into four portions and shape them into patties, making a slight indentation in the center of each.
- Heat your skillet or grill over medium-high heat. Add the tablespoon of butter and let it melt, coating the bottom.
- Place the patties onto the skillet or grill. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side, then flip. Place two slices of cheddar cheese on each patty and cover to help the cheese melt. Cook for another 4-5 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 160°F.
- Toast the brioche buns cut side down in the same skillet until golden brown.
- Assemble the burgers starting with the bottom bun, adding the cheesy patty, dill pickle slices, chopped red onions, mustard, and ketchup. Top with the other half of the bun.
- Plate your burgers and serve them hot, pairing with fries or a salad.
