Ingredients

1 lb ground sirloin
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup ketchup
2 tablespoons sweet relish
4 slices American cheese
4 hamburger buns with sesame seeds
1/3 cup sliced pickle
4 pieces green lettuce leaves
2 large tomatoes, sliced
1 small white onion, sliced

Steps:

In a large bowl, combine the ground sirloin, salt, pepper, garlic and onion powder until evenly combined. Divide the mixture into 4 equal parts and then shape each into thin patties. Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and freeze for 30 minutes.
Heat an indoor grill pan or outdoor grill over high heat. Once hot, place the frozen meat patties on the grill. Press down with a spatula and cook for about 4 minutes on the first side. Flip over and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes on the second side. Turn off the grill and place a slice of cheese on top of each patty.
In a small bowl, combine the ketchup and relish. Set aside.
Toast the buns and spread each half with mayo.
To assemble the burgers, place a few pickle slices on each bottom half of the buns. Top layer lettuce, tomatoes, onions and a burger patty. Spread some of the ketchup mixture on the top bun and place on top. Serve immediately.

Time 30m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

1/2 lb ground beef (Angus beef is best)
salt and pepper
1 large hamburger bun with sesame seeds
3 teaspoons mayonnaise
1 teaspoon mustard
2 teaspoons ketchup
2 slices American cheese (cheap cheddar)
3 -4 slices bread and butter pickles
iceberg lettuce
2 sliced tomatoes (large slices)
4 -5 red onion rings

Steps:

Preheat barbecue or indoor grill to medium heat.
Form the ground beef into a patty with a slightly larger diameter than the sesame seed bun.
Grill the burger on the grill for 3 to 4 minutes per side or until done.
Be sure to generously salt and pepper each side of the patty.
While the patty grills, brown the faces of the bun in a hot skillet over medium heat.
After the buns have browned, spread about 1 1/2 teaspoons of mayonnaise on the face of the top bun, as well as on the bottom bun.
Spread 1 teaspoon of mustard on the face of the top bun, followed by 2 teaspoons of ketchup.
Arrange 3 or 4 bread& butter pickles slices on the bottom bun.
Arrange lettuce on pickles followed by the tomato slices and red onion.
When the beef is cooked, arrange two slices of American cheese on the patty, let it melt a bit, then place the top bun on the cheese and scoop up the whole thing with a spatula and place it on the bottom half of the burger.

Tips:

To achieve the signature char-grilled flavor, cook the burgers over medium-high heat on a grill or grill pan.
Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the burgers are cooked to your desired doneness. For medium-rare burgers, cook to an internal temperature of 135°F (57°C); for medium burgers, cook to 145°F (63°C); and for well-done burgers, cook to 160°F (71°C).
To prevent the burgers from drying out, brush them with melted butter or oil during cooking.
Build the burgers just before serving to keep them fresh and prevent the buns from getting soggy.
For extra flavor, try adding a slice of cheese, bacon, or your favorite burger toppings.
