Ingredients
500 g lean ground beef
2 tbsp finely chopped onion
1 ½ tbsp ketchup
1 tbsp Dijon mustard
1 tsp coarsely ground black pepper
1 tsp coarse sea salt
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1 tsp dried oregano
Optional: ground chili to taste
4 slices of processed cheese or toast cheese
1 pack of bacon, sliced
Optional: iceberg lettuce, sliced
Optional: tomatoes, thinly sliced
Optional: onions, thin rings
Optional: cucumbers, sliced
Optional: mustard, ketchup, mayo, BBQ sauce, hamburger sauce, etc.
4 large sesame hamburger buns
Instructions
Combine the ground beef with the spices in a bowl and mix gently.
Divide the meat mixture into 4 equal portions.
Shape each portion into a flat patty, making a small indentation in the center to ensure even cooking.
Refrigerate the patties for at least 2 hours.
Grill the patties on a charcoal grill over high direct heat for 8-10 minutes with the lid closed, flipping once.
Season the patties with salt and pepper and place cheese slices on top one minute before finishing cooking.
Cook the bacon crispy over indirect heat, ideally before placing the beef.
Warm the burger buns in the oven or on the grill (watching closely to avoid burning).
Assemble the burgers with your choice of mustard, mayo, ketchup, or BBQ sauce, iceberg lettuce, tomato slices, cucumber slices, onion rings, and bacon.
Notes
For best results, let the patties marinate in the fridge for a couple of hours before grilling.
