Gourmet Cheeseburger

Prepare the Beef Patty In a bowl, mix together the ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, onion, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper until well combined.

Shape the Patties Divide the beef mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a patty, approximately 1/2 inch thick.

Cook the Patties Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for 4-5 minutes on each side, until they reach your desired level of doneness. Add a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each patty during the last minute of cooking to melt.

Prepare the Special Sauce In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, ketchup, sweet pickle relish, white vinegar, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder until smooth.

Assemble the Cheeseburgers Spread the special sauce on the bottom half of each hamburger bun. Place a lettuce leaf on top of the sauce, followed by a beef patty with melted cheese. Add tomato slices, red onion slices, pickle slices, and the top half of the bun.
