The Ultimate California Burger Recipe
Indulge in the ultimate taste of the West Coast with our California Burger recipe—a juicy beef patty topped with creamy avocado, ripe tomato, and crisp lettuce, all nestled between a toasted bun.
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef (preferably 80% lean)
- 1 pinch salt to taste
- 1 pinch ground black pepper to taste
- 4 medium hamburger buns
- 4 slices cheddar cheese
- 1 large avocado sliced
- 1 large tomato sliced
- 4 leaves lettuce
- 4 slices red onion
- 4 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons ketchup
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
Instructions
- Start by preheating your grill to medium-high.
- Divide your ground beef into four. Shape each section into a flat patty. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
- Transfer the patties to your preheated grill. Sear them for 4-5 minutes per side, depending on how you like your burger cooked. At the last minute, add a slice of cheddar cheese for melty goodness!
- While the patties are grilling, lightly toast the hamburger buns on the grill.
- Dress up the bottom buns with a layer of mayonnaise. Add a leaf of lettuce, followed by the burger patty. Top with slices of avocado, tomato, and red onion. Spread a mixture of ketchup and Dijon mustard on the top half of the bun, then place it on top of the burger.
- Serve your California Burger immediately with your favorite side dish.
