Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef (80% lean)
- 4 slices cheddar cheese
- 4 burger buns
- 1 cup lettuce, shredded
- 1 medium tomato, sliced
- 1/2 cup pickles, sliced
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons Sriracha sauce
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Olive oil for cooking
How to Make Double Cheese Burger with Spicy Sauce
- In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika. Mix gently until just combined, then divide into four equal portions and shape them into patties.
- Heat a skillet or grill over medium-high heat and add a drizzle of olive oil. Once hot, add the burger patties and cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side.
- Flip the patties and place a slice of cheddar cheese on each one. Cook for an additional 4-5 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the patties reach your desired doneness (145°F for medium rare, 160°F for medium).
- While the patties are cooking, prepare the spicy drizzle by mixing the mayonnaise and Sriracha sauce in a small bowl. Adjust the heat to your liking.
- Toast the burger buns on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.
- Assemble the burgers: place some shredded lettuce on the bottom half of each bun, followed by a slice of tomato, a cheeseburger patty, and pickles. Drizzle the spicy sauce over the top and finish with the top half of the bun.
- Serve immediately, and enjoy your Ultimate Double Cheese Burger with Spicy Drizzle!
Tips for the Best Results
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure your patties are cooked to the right temperature.
- Let the patties rest for a few minutes after cooking for juicier burgers.
- Customize your spicy drizzle by adding more Sriracha or a dash of hot sauce.
- Feel free to experiment with different cheese varieties like pepper jack for an extra kick.
Easy Variations
- Swap in ground turkey or chicken for a leaner option.
- Add crispy bacon for an extra layer of flavor.
- Use BBQ sauce instead of spicy drizzle for a sweeter taste.
- Top with avocado slices or jalapeños for added freshness and heat.
What to Serve With It
- Crispy French fries or sweet potato fries.
- Coleslaw for a crunchy, creamy side.
- Grilled corn on the cob.
- A fresh garden salad to balance out the richness.
