Ingredients
- 1 lb Ground beef (80/20 blend)
- 6 cloves Garlic cloves (minced)
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1 tsp Black pepper (freshly ground)
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
- 0.25 cup Mayonnaise
- 2 cloves Roasted garlic (mashed into a paste)
- 0.5 tsp Lemon juice
- 4 pieces Hamburger buns
- 2 tbsp Butter (softened)
- 4 pieces Cheddar cheese (slices)
- 4 pieces Lettuce leaves
- 8 pieces Tomato slices
- 4 slices Pickles (optional)
- 1 tbsp Olive oil
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix gently with your hands until just combined; do not overmix.
Step 2
Divide the beef mixture into 4 equal portions and shape into patties, slightly larger than the size of your hamburger buns to account for shrinkage during cooking. Make a small indentation in the center of each patty with your thumb to prevent puffing up while cooking.
Step 3
In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise, roasted garlic paste, and lemon juice until smooth. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
Step 4
Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, brush with olive oil to prevent sticking.
Step 5
Cook the burger patties for 3-4 minutes on the first side. Flip and place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes or until the burgers reach your desired doneness (preferably 160°F for medium).
Step 6
While the burgers are cooking, spread a thin layer of softened butter on the inside of the hamburger buns and toast them lightly on another skillet or grill until golden brown.
Step 7
To assemble the burgers, spread a generous amount of the garlic mayo sauce on the bottom bun. Add a lettuce leaf, 2 tomato slices, and the burger patty with melted cheese. Top with pickles, if desired, and place the top bun on.
Step 8
Serve immediately with your favorite side dish, such as French fries or a crisp salad. Enjoy your Garlic Lover's Burger!
