How to make a similar version
1
Divide the beef into loose patties slightly wider than the buns; season both sides with salt and pepper.
2
Heat a cast-iron skillet or griddle over medium-high. Cook patties until browned and safely cooked, adding cheese during the final minute when used.
3
Toast the cut sides of the buns until lightly golden.
4
Spread sauces on the buns, then layer the patty with pickles, onion, lettuce and tomato in the order shown in the ingredient list.
5
Serve immediately while the burger is hot and the vegetables are crisp.
Closer-match tip
Use a hot flat griddle and avoid pressing the patty after the initial sear; toast the bun with a little butter for a more restaurant-like finish.
