Ingredients
- 1 pound grass-fed ground beef
- 2 tablespoons ghee or coconut oil
- 8 pieces romaine lettuce leaves
- 1 large tomato
- 0.5 large red onion
- 4 slices pickles
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 cup homemade paleo mayo
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
Directions
Step 1
In a small bowl, prepare the special sauce by combining the Paleo mayo, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, and garlic powder. Stir well and set aside.
Step 2
Slice the tomato into thin rounds and the red onion into thin rings. Set aside along with the lettuce leaves and pickle slices.
Step 3
Divide the ground beef into four equal portions and gently form them into patties, about half an inch thick. Season each patty on both sides with sea salt and black pepper.
Step 4
Heat the ghee or coconut oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the beef patties.
Step 5
Cook the patties for about 2-3 minutes on one side, then flip. Continue cooking for another 2-3 minutes, or until your desired level of doneness. Remove from the skillet and let rest for a minute.
Step 6
Assemble the burgers by placing one patty on a romaine lettuce leaf. Spread about a teaspoon of the special sauce over the patty, then top with a tomato slice, a few onion rings, and two pickle slices. Add another dollop of sauce if desired.
Step 7
Place another lettuce leaf over the toppings to complete the burger and use a toothpick to secure if needed.
Step 8
Repeat the assembly process for the second burger and serve immediately.
