Classic Double Cheeseburgers with Special Sauce

Total:: 25 min
Active:: 25 min

Yield:: 6 servings

Level:: Easy

Ingredients

Special Sauce:

1/4 cup mayonnaise
3 tablespoons ketchup
1 tablespoon yellow mustard
1 tablespoon dill relish
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

Double Cheeseburgers:

2 pounds ground beef (80 percent lean)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
12 slices American cheese
6 hamburger buns, split and lightly toasted
1 large tomato, sliced
1 1/2 cups shredded iceberg lettuce
1/2 red onion, thinly sliced into rings

Directions

For the special sauce: Stir together the mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard, relish and Worcestershire in a medium bowl. Set aside.

For the double cheeseburgers: Prepare a grill for cooking over medium-high heat.

Divide the ground beef into 12 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball, then flatten it into a thin, 4-inch-diameter patty. Lightly sprinkle the patties with salt and pepper. Grill on one side until about halfway cooked, about 3 minutes. Flip the patties, sprinkle the other side with salt and pepper, top each with a slice of cheese and continue to cook until the patties are cooked through and the cheese has begun to melt, 1 to 2 minutes more.

Build each burger on a bun with 2 patties, tomato, lettuce, onion and a generous slathering of special sauce.
