Ingredients

• 1 pound Ground beef (preferably 80/20)
• 0.5 teaspoon Kosher salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
• 4 slices Sharp cheddar cheese slices
• 8 large leaves Romaine lettuce leaves
• 1 medium, sliced Tomato
• 8 slices Dill pickle chips
• 4 tablespoons Mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon Yellow mustard
• 1 teaspoon Apple cider vinegar
• 0.25 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Onion powder

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise, mustard, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, and onion powder. This will be the special sauce, set it aside.

Step 2

Divide the ground beef into 4 equal parts and gently form each into a patty, slightly larger than the size of your cheese slices.

Step 3

Season both sides of each patty with salt and pepper.

Step 4

Heat a large skillet or cast-iron pan over medium-high heat and melt the butter.

Step 5

Once the butter is foaming, add the patties to the pan, spacing them apart. Press down lightly with a spatula to ensure a good sear.

Step 6

Cook for about 2-3 minutes on the first side, until the edges start to brown and caramelize.

Step 7

Flip the patties and immediately top each with a slice of cheddar cheese. Continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until the desired doneness is reached.

Step 8

While the burgers are cooking, layer two large romaine lettuce leaves to form a base for each burger.

Step 9

Once the burgers are cooked, remove them from the skillet and place each patty onto the lettuce leaf bases.

Step 10

Top each burger with a slice of tomato, two dill pickle chips, and a generous spoonful of the special sauce made earlier.

Step 11

Finish by covering with another layered pair of romaine lettuce leaves to complete the wrap.

Step 12

Serve immediately and enjoy your Keto Shake Shack Style Burger!
