Servings: 4 burgers
Ingredients
- 2 Tbsp butter, softened $0.26
- 4 burger buns $2.24
- 1 batch Homemade Burger Seasoning $0.33
- 1 lb. ground beef chuck $6.29
Optional Toppings
- 4 slices cheddar cheese $1.24

- 1/4 red onion, sliced into thin rounds $0.39
- 12 dill pickle slices $0.93
- 1/4 cup Comeback Sauce (1 Tbsp per burger or more) $1.12
Instructions
- Preheat the indoor grill to 325°F*. Spread the softened butter on the cut side of your burger buns. Place the cut sides down on the grill to toast the buns for a few minutes until lightly golden brown. Set the buns to the side.
- Mix together the spices for the homemade burger seasoning and set aside.
- Next divide the ground beef into four equal portions. Gently shape the beef into round burger patties about ½ - 1-inch thick, being careful not to overwork the meat.
- Generously season the burgers with ¼ to ½ tsp of burger seasoning on each side of the burger patty.
- Add the burgers to the grill (This is the new indoor grill we found that is both easy and budget friendly), lower the lid, and cook for 7-8 minutes per side or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F. Add the cheddar cheese slices to the burgers during the last 1-2 minutes of the cook time. Remove the burgers from the grill, assemble with your favorite toppings, and enjoy!
