Ingredients

• 1 pound Ground beef (80/20 blend)
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 4 slices Cheddar cheese slices
• 1 head Butter lettuce
• 1 large Tomato
• 8 slices Dill pickles
• 0.25 cup Mayonnaise
• 2 tablespoons Sugar-free ketchup
• 1 tablespoon Yellow mustard
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder

Directions

Step 1

1. In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, sugar-free ketchup, yellow mustard, garlic powder, and onion powder. Stir the ingredients together until well blended to create the burger sauce. Set aside.

Step 2

2. Slice the tomato into four equally thick slices and set aside.

Step 3

3. Separate and wash the butter lettuce leaves, patting them dry with paper towels.

Step 4

4. In a mixing bowl, gently mix the ground beef with salt and black pepper, being careful not to overwork the meat.

Step 5

5. Divide the seasoned beef into four equal portions and shape each portion into a ball, then flatten lightly to form a patty, ensuring they remain slightly thicker in the center.

Step 6

6. Preheat a skillet or a griddle on medium-high heat. Once hot, place the beef patties onto the skillet and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until a lovely crust has developed.

Step 7

7. During the last minute of cooking, add a cheese slice on top of each patty and cover the skillet with a lid to allow the cheese to melt.

Step 8

8. To assemble, lay out two butter lettuce leaves for each burger on a plate. Place a slice of tomato, a beef patty with melted cheese, two pickle slices, and a generous drizzle of sauce on top.

Step 9

9. Wrap the assembled components securely with the lettuce leaves, creating a 'bun.'

Step 10

10. Serve the low carb burgers immediately while the cheese is still melty and delicious.
