Meet your new favorite classic burger with an irresistible twist—'Hamburger New' brings together juicy, perfectly seasoned ground beef patties and layers of bold flavors for the ultimate homemade treat. This recipe showcases an 80/20 beef blend for the ideal balance of flavor and tenderness, enhanced with a savory trio of salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. The patties are cooked to perfection, topped with melty cheddar cheese, and nestled in golden, buttery toasted buns. A zesty homemade garlic aioli, made with fresh minced garlic and a splash of lemon juice, elevates every bite, while crisp lettuce, ripe tomato, crunchy red onion, and optional tangy pickles add vibrant texture. Ready in just 30 minutes, 'Hamburger New' is perfect for a quick weeknight dinner or a casual weekend cookout—serve it with fries, a crisp salad, or your go-to sides for a meal that's bound to impress!
In a mixing bowl, combine ground beef, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Gently mix until just combined. Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each into a patty, about 3/4-inch thick. Make a slight indentation in the center of each patty to ensure even cooking.
Preheat a large skillet or grill over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the surface to prevent sticking.
Place the patties on the skillet or grill and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. During the last minute of cooking, place a cheddar cheese slice on each patty to melt.
While the patties are cooking, toast the burger buns. Spread butter on the insides of the buns and place them on a grill or skillet until golden brown, about 1-2 minutes.
To make the garlic aioli, mix mayonnaise, minced garlic, and lemon juice in a small bowl. Stir well and set aside.
Assemble the burgers: Spread the garlic aioli on the bottom half of each bun. Add a piece of lettuce, followed by the cooked patty with melted cheese. Top with tomato slices, red onion slices, and pickles (if using). Cover with the top bun.
Serve immediately with your favorite sides, such as fries or a fresh salad.
