Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground beef
- 1 medium, finely chopped Onion
- 1 cup Barbecue sauce
- 1 cup Dill pickle slices
- 4 slices Cheddar cheese
- 4 tablespoons (softened) Butter
- 4 whole Hamburger buns
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef until browned, breaking it up into crumbles with a wooden spoon. Drain any excess grease.
Step 2
Add the chopped onion to the skillet and cook for 3–4 minutes, stirring frequently, until the onion becomes translucent.
Step 3
Stir in the barbecue sauce, salt, and black pepper. Reduce heat to medium-low and let the mixture simmer for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Remove from heat.
Step 4
Butter each side of the hamburger buns evenly using the softened butter.
Step 5
Heat a griddle or skillet over medium heat. Place the buttered buns face down on the griddle and toast until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Remove and set aside.
Step 6
Spoon the ground beef mixture onto the bottom half of each toasted bun. Add a few slices of dill pickles on top of the beef.
Step 7
Place one slice of cheddar cheese over the pickles on each sandwich.
Step 8
Top each sandwich with the other half of the bun.
Step 9
Serve warm and enjoy your delicious Chuckwagon Sandwiches!
