Sink your teeth into this indulgent *High Protein Triple Cheeseburger*, a towering masterpiece that’s as delicious as it is satisfying. Made with juicy ground beef seasoned to perfection and layered with three kinds of melty cheese—cheddar, Swiss, and provolone—this burger is a flavor-packed protein powerhouse. Nestled between buttery, golden-toasted brioche buns, the stack is completed with fresh lettuce, ripe tomato slices, crisp red onion, and tangy pickles, all drizzled with classic ketchup and mustard. Perfectly seared patties and a balance of textures make this recipe the ultimate comfort food, ideal for summer cookouts or a treat-yourself dinner. Ready in just 30 minutes, this triple-decker delight is customizable to your taste and pairs perfectly with crispy fries or a fresh salad.
1. In a large mixing bowl, season the ground beef with salt and ground black pepper. Mix gently until well combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.
2. Divide the seasoned ground beef into 4 equal portions and shape them into thin, round patties slightly larger than the size of your burger buns. Set aside.
3. Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Add olive oil to the skillet to prevent sticking.
4. Place the beef patties into the skillet and cook for about 3 minutes on one side. Flip the patties and add a slice of cheese (cheddar for one, Swiss for another, and provolone on the last) on top of 3 of the patties.
5. Allow the patties to cook for another 3-4 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the burgers are cooked to your preferred doneness (aim for an internal temperature of 160°F for well-done).
6. While the patties cook, lightly butter the brioche buns and toast them in a separate skillet or grill pan until golden brown. Remove and set aside.
7. Assemble the burgers: Start with the bottom half of a toasted brioche bun, add lettuce, a slice of tomato, some onion slices, and 3 slices of pickles.
8. Add one of the patties with cheese, followed by another cheese-topped patty. Stack the third patty without cheese on top. Spread mustard and ketchup on the top bun and place it over the burger stack.
9. Secure the triple cheeseburger with a skewer if necessary, and serve immediately with your favorite sides. Enjoy!
