Ingredients
Scale
For the Burgers
- 1 lb ground chuck
- 4 slices cheddar cheese
- 1 ripe avocado, sliced
- 4 large eggs
- 4 sesame seed buns
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
For the Special Sauce
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons relish
- 1 tablespoon white vinegar
- 1 tablespoon mustard
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the Special Sauce: In a bowl, combine mayonnaise, relish, white vinegar, mustard, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt. Mix well until smooth. Cover and refrigerate while you prepare the rest of the ingredients to allow flavors to meld.
- Toast the Buns: Spread butter evenly on the cut sides of the sesame buns. Heat a skillet over medium heat and toast the buns, buttered side down, until golden brown and slightly crisp. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Cook the Beef Patties: Shape the ground chuck into four equal-sized patties. Season each side generously with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 3-4 minutes per side, flipping once, until they reach desired doneness. During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty to melt.
- Fry the Eggs: In a separate skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Crack the eggs carefully and fry them until the egg whites are set but the yolks remain runny, or cook longer if preferred. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
- Assemble the Burgers: Spread a generous amount of special sauce on the bottom half of each toasted bun. Layer with avocado slices, then a cheesy beef patty, and top with the fried egg. Cover with the top bun.
- Serve Immediately: Serve the assembled burgers right away to enjoy the perfect combination of warm patties, creamy avocado, and runny egg yolk for optimal taste and texture.
Notes
- Use ground chuck for juicy and flavorful patties.
- Adjust cooking time for patties based on preferred doneness.
- You can substitute cheddar cheese with your favorite cheese variety.
- For a spicier sauce, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or hot sauce.
- To keep the egg yolk runny, cook eggs sunny side up or over easy.
- Serve immediately to prevent the buns from getting soggy.
