Instructions

  1. Prepare the Sauce: In a small bowl, mix together mayonnaise, ketchup, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
  2. Caramelize the Onions: In a skillet over medium heat, melt butter and add sliced onions. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are golden and caramelized, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
  3. Form the Patties: In a large bowl, combine ground beef, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until just combined and form into four equal patties.
  4. Cook the Patties: Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. Top each patty with a slice of cheddar cheese during the last minute of cooking, allowing it to melt.
  5. Toast the Buns: While the patties are cooking, toast the brioche buns on the grill or in a skillet until golden brown.
  6. Assemble the Burgers: Spread the steakhouse sauce on both halves of each bun. Place a lettuce leaf and a tomato slice on the bottom bun, followed by the cheese-topped patty, caramelized onions, and pickles. Top with the other half of the bun.

Serving Suggestions

Serve these steakhouse burgers with a side of crispy fries or sweet potato fries. You can also pair them with a fresh green salad or coleslaw for a balanced meal.

How to Store Steakhouse Burger

Store any leftover cooked patties in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a skillet or microwave until heated through. Assemble the burgers fresh when ready to serve.
