Description

A juicy, cheesy stacked burger made with seasoned beef patties, toasted brioche buns, crisp toppings, and a creamy tangy burger sauce.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground beef, ideally 80/20
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 4 brioche buns
  • 4 slices cheddar cheese
  • 4 large lettuce leaves
  • 1 medium tomato, sliced
  • 16 pickle chips
  • 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons ketchup
  • 1 teaspoon yellow mustard


Instructions

  1. Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium-high heat until hot.
  2. In a mixing bowl, gently combine ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
  3. Divide the beef mixture into 4 equal portions and shape into patties slightly wider than the buns.
  4. Toast the brioche buns in the skillet or on the griddle until golden on the cut sides, then set aside.
  5. In a small bowl, stir together mayonnaise, ketchup, and yellow mustard.
  6. Cook the patties for 3 to 4 minutes per side, or until browned and cooked through.
  7. Add one slice of cheddar cheese to each patty during the last minute of cooking and let it melt.
  8. Spread sauce on the bottom buns, then add lettuce, cheesy patties, tomato slices, pickle chips, and red onion.
  9. Spread more sauce on the top buns, close the burgers, and serve right away.

Notes

  • Do not overmix the beef, or the patties can turn tough.
  • Toast the buns to help prevent sogginess.
  • Slice toppings thin so the burgers stack neatly.
  • Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
