Yield: 2 servings
Cuisine: American
Ingredients: 1 lb 80/20 ground beef; salt, to taste; black pepper, to taste; 1 tsp garlic powder, for seasoning patties; 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce; 1/2 white onion; 1 tbsp vegetable oil; 1/2 cup mayonnaise; 2 tbsp ketchup; 1 tbsp yellow mustard; 2 tbsp dill pickles, finely chopped; 1/2 tsp onion powder, for sauce; 1/2 tsp paprika, for sauce; 2 burger buns; 2 slices American cheese; lettuce, for serving; tomato slices, for serving

1

Divide the ground beef and form into patties. Make them about one inch wider than your buns and press a dimple into the center of each to prevent them from puffing up while cooking.

2

Season the patties generously on both sides with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and a splash of Worcestershire sauce.

3

To clean and season the grill, cut an onion in half, dip the cut side in vegetable oil, and rub it over the hot grill grates.

4

For a smoky flavor, use a dual-zone grill setup. Place the patties on the cooler side of the grill to smoke first, then move them to the hot side to reverse sear until cooked to your desired doneness.

5

If making cheeseburgers, add a slice of cheese to each patty during the last minute of cooking to allow it to melt.

6

While the burgers cook, prepare the special sauce. In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard, chopped dill pickles, onion powder, and paprika. Mix until well combined.

7

Assemble the burgers on buns with the special sauce, lettuce, and tomato slices. Serve immediately.
