Ingredients
  

Burger Patties
  • 1 pound ground beef 80/20 blend for best flavor
  • 1 teaspoon salt to taste
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder
Secret Sauce
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons ketchup
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
Burger Assembly
  • 4 pieces burger buns toasted
  • 4 slices cheddar cheese optional
  • 1 cup lettuce shredded
  • 1 tomato sliced

Method
 

Prepare the Patties
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine ground beef, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix gently until just combined.
  2. Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape them into patties.
Make the Secret Sauce
  1. In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, ketchup, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and smoked paprika until smooth.
Grill the Burgers

  2. If using cheese, place a slice on each patty during the last minute of cooking to melt.
