Cooking the Burger:

There are many ways to cook a hamburger. Preferred method is on a flat top griddle, but not everyone has that at home. Next best is a cast iron skillet on your BBQ.Light your BBQ and get it nice and hot. Place cast iron pan on BBQ and close lid to heat up the cast iron.

• 1. Season beef with the salt and pepper and divide into half
• 2. Roll into ball shape
• 3. Toss the ball shape between hands for 30 seconds to bind.
• 4. Push thumb into the middle of the ball to create a hole for the curds
• 5. Stuff each patty with 2 oz of the curds
• 6. Form into a patty and chill
• 7. Season the outside of the patty with Kosher Salt & Fresh Ground Black Pepper
• 8. Place on the cast iron pan for 4-5 minutes per side or until firm to the touch.
• 9. With about 2 minutes left on the second side, add a slice of aged cheddar if you wish!

Making the Dressing:

• 1. Mix all the dressing ingredients together thoroughly

Making the Pickled Red Onions:

• 1. Peel and remove the core from the onion – cut in ½
• 2. Thinly slice the onion and place it into a jar that you can put a sealed lid on
• 3. Heat the vinegar & sugar in dissolve the sugar
• 4. Once the liquid starts to simmer, pour over the onions in the jar
• 5. Allow cooling to room temperature uncovered
• 6. Cover with a lid that seals. Can last in the fridge for up to 4 weeks.

Making the Chili Mayonnaise OR Malt Vinegar Mayonnaise:

• 1. Mix all the dressing ingredients together thoroughly

Triple Cooked Chips:

• 1. Cut potatoes into wedges (each potato about 8 pieces)
• 2. In a large pot, fill 3/4 with water and bring to a boil.
• 3. Season with a good pinch of kosher salt
• 4. Drop chips in the boiling water for the “first cook”
• 5. Simmer for 10 minutes or until the knife can slide in and comes away from the potato easily.
• 6. Strain and Cool
• 7. While the potatoes are cooling, warm the oil in a large pot on the stovetop. If you have an oil thermometer, you are looking for 325 F for the first oil blanche of the chips. If you do not have an oil thermometer, you want the oil to just start to move a little bit and regulate the temperature to match.
• 8. Drop the chips into the 325 F oil to blanche them. You are looking for a very light browning. This will take about 3 minutes.
• 9. Remove from oil and cool
• 10. Turn up the heat to 350 F
• 11. Drop the chips back in for the final cooking phase. Golden brown and crispy. About 3-4 minutes.
• 12. Remove chips from oil
• 13. Toss with a good pinch of kosher salt in a dry bowl

• 2. Top each side of the bun (top and bottom) with a good helping of the Dressing
• 3. Put shredded lettuce on bottom bun, top with pickled red onions & sliced tomato
• 4. Add burger patty, top bun, you’re done!
