                This is my fave style of burger, thin and a little crunchy, fresh off the flat top. Pickle and onion in every bite! Love this recipe. Would not change a thing! I have made it before, I will make it again!raf

Ingredients

Ingredient Checklist

1 1/4 pounds coarsely ground beef chuck (70 percent lean)

Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper

4 slices American cheese

4 teaspoons unsalted butter, softened

4 potato sandwich rolls

1/4 cup diced white onion

1 dill pickle, thinly sliced

1 cup shredded iceberg lettuce

4 teaspoons yellow mustard

      Cook's Notes

Toppings Sour-salty pickles, spicy onions, and shards of cool iceberg lettuce are the best counterpoints to this greasy-in-a-good-way patty.Make Ahead Thin patties freeze beautifully when layered with parchment in a freezer bag. After an hour at room temperature, they’re ready for the griddle.Patty A 70 percent lean meat mix is key for griddle-cooked burgers, which get crisp by sizzling in their own fat. Flatten them with a rolling pin for uniform thinness.Cheese This guilty-pleasure burger begs for gooey, melty American cheese.Bun Martin’s Famous Sandwich Potato Rolls are our choice for their slight sweetness and optimally squishy centers. Butter them before toasting to highlight those qualities, and then add contrast with a smear of sharp mustard.

Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 pounds coarsely ground beef chuck (70 percent lean)
  • Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
  • 4 slices American cheese
  • 4 teaspoons unsalted butter, softened
  • 4 potato sandwich rolls
  • 1/4 cup diced white onion
  • 1 dill pickle, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup shredded iceberg lettuce
  • 4 teaspoons yellow mustard

Directions

Divide beef into 4 mounds, and evenly place on a 12-by-14-inch piece of plastic wrap. Place another piece of plastic on top. Roll into 5 1/2-inch patties, about 1/3 inch thick, with a rolling pin.

Heat a griddle or 2 large cast-iron skillets over medium-high. Season both sides of patties with salt and pepper. Cook patties, pressing with a spatula, 3 minutes. Reduce heat to medium, flip, and top with cheese. Cook 2 minutes.

Butter cut sides of rolls, and toast on griddle until edges just start to brown, about 1 minute.

Sandwich burgers in rolls with onion, pickle, lettuce, and mustard.
