American · Main course · 35 min total

A juicy, smoky burger with a perfect char, paired with crispy fries and a tangy special sauce. This recipe brings the backyard barbecue experience home.

Ingredients

• 1.5 lbs ground beef (80/20)
• 4 burger buns
• 4 slices cheddar cheese
• 4 leaves lettuce
• 4 slices tomato
• 4 slices red onion
• 4 tbsp mayonnaise
• 2 tbsp ketchup
• 1 tbsp yellow mustard
• 1 tsp pickle relish
• 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 4 large potatoes, cut into fries
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tsp garlic powder

Instructions

1. Preheat grill to high heat (about 500°F). For charcoal, wait until coals are white-hot.
2. Divide ground beef into 4 equal portions and shape into patties slightly larger than buns. Season generously with salt, pepper, and smoked paprika. Make a small indent in center of each patty.
3. Toss potato fries with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Spread on a baking sheet and bake at 425°F for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crispy.
4. Grill patties over direct high heat for 4 minutes per side for medium. During last minute, top each patty with cheese and close grill lid to melt.
5. Toast buns cut-side down on grill for about 30 seconds.
6. Mix mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard, and pickle relish in a small bowl to make special sauce.
7. Assemble burgers: spread sauce on bottom bun, add lettuce, tomato, onion, patty with cheese, then top bun.
8. Serve burgers hot with fries on the side.

Tips

• For extra smoky flavor, add a handful of soaked wood chips to the charcoal.
• Let patties rest for 5 minutes after grilling to retain juices.
• Store leftover sauce in the fridge for up to a week.
• To make fries extra crispy, soak cut potatoes in cold water for 30 minutes before baking.
