Description

Experience the satisfying simplicity of this bunless cheeseburger, a delightful and flavorful meal that proves you don't need a bun to enjoy a classic. This recipe focuses on the essential elements of a great burger: quality beef, savory spices, and creamy toppings, all coming together in a unique and satisfying way. The foundation of this dish is a juicy, well-seasoned ground beef patty.

A blend of aromatic spices infuses the beef with depth and warmth, while a touch of mayonnaise helps to bind the patty together, ensuring a tender and flavorful result. The cooked burger is then nestled within a crispy cheese wrap, creating a delightful textural contrast. Imagine biting into the savory burger, followed by the satisfying crunch of the cheese – a truly unique and delicious experience.

The cheese wrap, made entirely from shredded cheddar, offers a salty and sharp counterpoint to the richness of the beef. Its crispy texture adds another layer of complexity to the dish, making each bite interesting and enjoyable. To complement the burger, a side of fresh avocado provides a creamy and healthy element.

The avocado, simply seasoned with salt, pepper, and a touch of lemon juice, offers a refreshing contrast to the richness of the burger and cheese. Its smooth texture and mild flavor cleanse the palate, preparing you for the next delicious bite. Feel free to enjoy the avocado on its own or as a topping for the burger, adding another layer of flavor and texture.

While this recipe provides a delicious base, the possibilities for customization are endless. Consider adding your favorite burger toppings, such as crisp lettuce, juicy tomato slices, thinly sliced onion, or tangy pickles. These additions can enhance the flavor and texture of the burger, creating a truly personalized meal.

For an extra touch of flavor, experiment with different sauces and condiments. A simple mixture of mayonnaise, a touch of ketchup, and diced pickles can create a classic "special sauce" that perfectly complements the burger's savory flavors. Enjoy this bunless cheeseburger as a satisfying and flavorful meal that celebrates the simple pleasures of good food.

Instructions

    1.
    Make the burger by combining ground beef, mayonnaise, salt, pepper, onion powder, mustard powder, garlic powder, parsley, thyme, and paprika in a mixing bowl. Use your hands to mix the beef until you have a consistently pink, smooth mixture. Form the beef into a thick patty without any cracks around the edges. Next, heat the olive oil in a pan over high heat. Once the oil is hot, place the patty down in the pan. Use a spatula to gently press the patty down so it 92s under 1-inch thick.
    2.
    Cook the patty on one side until it starts to char. Then, reduce the heat to medium and let it continue cooking for another 1-2 minutes. Then, flip the burger over and cook for an additional 3 minutes until it 92s charred on the other side. This makes a medium-well burger. You can adjust the cooking time for the level of doneness you want for your burger. Set the burger aside, but you 92ll need it again in the next step.
    3.
    Place a new, clean non-stick pan on your stove. The pan must be at least 10 inches wide and have a non-stick or cast-iron coating. Spread the cup of shredded cheddar out in the base of the pan to make a thin circle that will become your wrap. Heat the cheese over high heat and watch for it to melt, bubble, release excess fat, and turn dark orange. Just before the center of the cheese wrap starts turning dark, place your burger patty in the center of the cheese.
    4.
    Immediately reduce the stove heat to its lowest setting. Use a spatula to start lifting one edge of the hardening cheese and fold it over the burger. Continue lifting the edges and folding the cheese over the burger in a circle around the pan until all the cheese is wrapped around the burger. Flip the burger over so the edges are tucked under it and set it on your serving plate. Next, thin-slice the avocado and arrange it on your plate. Sprinkle pinches of salt and pepper over the avocado and serve with a squeeze of lemon juice.
