Ingredients
For the Burgers:
2 lbs ground beef (80/20 blend)
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp smoked paprika
8 slices cheddar cheese
1 pack sesame seed burger buns
Toppings:
1 cup crispy French fries
4 slices dill pickles
1/2 cup shredded lettuce
4 slices tomato
1/2 cup crispy bacon (optional)
Special Sauce:
1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 tbsp ketchup
1 tbsp mustard
1 tbsp pickle relish
1/2 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp onion powder
Instructions
Step 1: Make the Sauce
Mix all the sauce ingredients in a bowl.
Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes for the flavors to blend.
Step 2: Cook the Burgers
Shape the ground beef into quarter-pound patties.
Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
Cook on a hot grill or skillet for 3-4 minutes per side until nicely seared.
Add cheddar cheese on top and let it melt.
Step 3: Toast the Buns
Lightly butter the burger buns and toast them in a pan until golden brown.
Step 4: Build the Beast
Spread the special sauce on the bottom bun.
Layer with a beef patty, melted cheese, another patty, more cheese, and a third patty (if you’re brave).
Add crispy fries, pickles, lettuce, tomatoes, and bacon if using.
Drizzle extra special sauce over the top.
Step 5: Serve & Devour
Secure with a skewer (because it’s THAT big).
Serve with extra fries & a cold drink.
Pro Tips:
Smash Burgers? Press patties on a hot griddle for crispy edges!
More Heat? Add jalapeños & hot sauce for an extra kick.
Extra Gooey? Swap cheddar for American cheese for the ultimate melt.
