Ingredients
- 1 pound brisket, coarsely ground
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.25 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 2 tablespoons ghee
- 8 large iceberg lettuce leaves
- 1 large tomato, sliced
- 0.5 medium red onion, thinly sliced
- 4 slices dill pickles
- 1 large avocado, sliced
- 2 tablespoons whole30 compliant mustard
Directions
Step 1
In a large bowl, combine the coarsely ground brisket with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika. Mix gently until seasonings are evenly distributed.
Step 2
Form the meat mixture into four equal-sized patties, making a slight depression in the center of each to help them cook evenly.
Step 3
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt the ghee.
Step 4
Add the burger patties to the skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the burgers reach your desired level of doneness.
Step 5
While the burgers are cooking, prepare the toppings. Separate and wash large iceberg lettuce leaves, slice the tomato and red onion, and cut the avocado.
Step 6
Once the burgers are cooked, assemble the Whole30 brisket burgers by placing each patty onto a large lettuce leaf.
Step 7
Top each burger with slices of tomato, red onion, dill pickle, and avocado.
Step 8
Drizzle with Whole30 compliant mustard.
Step 9
Wrap the burger with another lettuce leaf and serve immediately.
