Ingredients
🍔 500g ground beef (80/20 blend)
🧂 1 teaspoon salt
🧄 1 teaspoon garlic powder
🌶️ 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
🧀 4 slices smoked Gouda cheese
🧀 4 slices cheddar cheese
🍞 4 burger buns
🥬 4 leaves butter lettuce
🍅 1 ripe tomato, sliced
🧅 1 red onion, sliced
🍔 4 tablespoons mayonnaise
🥓 Optional: 4 strips crispy bacon
Instructions
1- Prep the Ingredients:
- Place the ground beef in a large bowl and season it with salt, garlic powder, and black pepper. Mix gently to incorporate the seasonings without overworking the meat.
2- Shape the Patties:
- Divide the meat mixture into four equal portions and shape them into patties, ensuring they are slightly larger than the burger buns to account for shrinkage during cooking.
3- Cook the Patties:
- Preheat a grill or frying pan over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of smoked Gouda and a slice of cheddar on each patty to melt.
4- Assemble the Burgers:
- Lightly toast the burger buns on the grill or in a toaster. Spread a tablespoon of mayonnaise on the bottom half of each bun. Layer with lettuce, a cheese-topped patty, sliced tomato, and onion. Add a strip of crispy bacon if using.
5- Serve:
- Place the top half of the bun over the burger. Serve immediately with your choice of sides.
