Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground beef (80/20 blend)
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 cup Peanut butter (creamy or crunchy, as preferred)
- 4 pieces Burger buns
- 4 pieces Cheddar cheese slices
- 4 leaves Lettuce
- 4 pieces Tomato slices
- 8 pieces Pickle slices
- 2 tablespoons Butter
Directions
Step 1
In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, ground black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix gently until everything is evenly incorporated, being careful not to overmix.
Step 2
Divide the beef mixture into 4 equal portions and shape into burger patties about ¾-inch thick, making a slight dimple in the center of each patty to ensure even cooking.
Step 3
Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the surface to prevent sticking.
Step 4
Cook the burger patties for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 160°F for medium doneness. Add a slice of cheddar cheese to each patty during the last minute of cooking to allow it to melt.
Step 5
While the burgers are cooking, lightly butter the insides of the burger buns. Toast the buns on the grill or skillet until golden brown, about 1-2 minutes.
Step 6
Spread about 2 tablespoons of peanut butter onto the bottom half of each toasted bun. Adjust the amount of peanut butter to suit your taste.
Step 7
Assemble the burger by placing the cooked patty with melted cheese on top of the peanut butter. Add a leaf of lettuce, a slice of tomato, and two pickle slices to each burger.
Step 8
Finish by placing the top half of the bun over the toppings. Serve immediately with your favorite sides like fries, chips, or a salad.
