Ingredients
For the burgers:
- 1 to 1 1/2 pounds ground chuck (80% lean)
- Truffle salt or kosher salt
- freshly ground black pepper
- 4 lices Brie cheese
For the garlic mayonnaise:
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
For finishing:
- 2 cups arugula
- 1/2 cup caramelized onions
- 4 burger buns, toasted if desired
Instructions
For the burgers:
- Divide the meat into four equal potions. Form each portion loosely into a disk shape, making a deep impression in the center with your thumb. Season both sides of each burger to taste with salt and pepper.
- Prepare and preheat a grill, grill pan, or cast iron griddle. Cook the burgers until slightly charred and cooked through, about 5 minutes per side. If using very fresh and high quality ground beef, feel free to cook to medium or medium-rare, about 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove the burgers from the heat and add the brie cheese. Tent with aluminum foil and allow the burgers to rest for 5 minutes, or until the juices are redistributed and the cheese is melted.
For the garlic mayonnaise:
- Combine all the ingredients in a small bowl and refrigerate until ready to use.
To finish:
- Top each burger with arugula and caramelized onions. Spread garlic mayo on each burger bun and sandwich the burgers. Serve immediately.
Notes
- I like to make caramelized onions in the slow cooker: place 4 to 5 large onions, sliced, in a slow cooker with 3 tablespoons butter or olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook on LOW for 10 hours. Refrigerate or freeze the onions.
