Ingredients

• 1 pound ground beef (80/20 lean-to-fat ratio)
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
• 4 pieces burger buns
• 4 pieces cheddar cheese slices
• 4 pieces lettuce leaves
• 8 pieces tomato slices
• 8 pieces red onion slices
• 8 slices pickles
• 4 tablespoons ketchup
• 4 tablespoons mayonnaise
• 2 teaspoons yellow mustard
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your grill or stovetop skillet to medium-high heat.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix gently with your hands until the seasoning is evenly distributed.

Step 3

Divide the beef mixture into 4 equal portions and shape them into patties about 3/4-inch thick. Make a small indentation in the center of each patty to prevent it from puffing up during cooking.

Step 4

Spread butter on the inner sides of each burger bun. Set them aside.

Step 5

Place the patties on the preheated grill or skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on the first side without moving them.

Step 6

Flip the patties and cook for another 3-4 minutes. During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty to melt.

Step 7

While the patties cook, toast the buttered sides of the burger buns on the grill or skillet until golden brown, about 1-2 minutes.

Step 8

Assemble the burgers: Spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise on the bottom bun, then add a lettuce leaf, 2 tomato slices, a cooked patty with melted cheese, 2 red onion slices, and 2 pickle slices. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of ketchup and 1/2 teaspoon of mustard. Top with the upper bun.

Step 9

Serve immediately and enjoy your Foghorns Beef Burger with your favorite sides!
