Instructions
For the topping
- Combine all ingredients in a small bowl. Reserve until ready to use.
For the burgers
- In medium bowl, combine the beef, beef base, and black pepper. Form into 8 2-ounce balls.
- Heat your griddle or grill on medium-high heat.
- While the grill is heating, melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat.
- Add the garlic and saute for 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and reserve until ready to use.
- Place the balls onto the griddle and let cook for 30 seconds then flatten them out until then using a spatula or grill press.
- After 3 minutes flip the patties. Continue cooking until almost done to your preference.
- Add the cheese pieces and cook another minute until melted and the burgers are done.
- While the burgers are cooking, slather the buns with the garlic butter and toast the buns on the grill or griddle.
- Add the topping to the bun bottoms. Don't be shy with it.
- Remove burgers from the griddle and place onto the buns. Add the top bun and serve.
Notes
I prefer to put my topping on the bottom bun. It tends to stay on the buns better that way. Feel free to put yours on top of the patties instead!
