Ingredients
- Ground beef: 1.5 pounds
- Garlic cloves: 10-12, minced
- Garlic powder: 2 tablespoons
- Garlic salt: 1 teaspoon
- Worcestershire sauce: 1 tablespoon
- Olive oil: 2 tablespoons
- Hamburger buns: 4
- Provolone cheese slices: 4
Instructions
- Step 1: In a large bowl, gently combine the ground beef, minced garlic, garlic powder, garlic salt, and Worcestershire sauce. Be careful not to overmix.
- Step 2: Divide the mixture into 4 equal patties. Press a slight indentation into the center of each patty to prevent them from bulging while cooking.
- Step 3: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for 5-7 minutes per side, or until cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
- Step 4: In the last minute of cooking, place a slice of provolone cheese on top of each patty and allow it to melt.
- Step 5: Place each cheeseburger patty on a hamburger bun and serve immediately. Add your favorite toppings, if desired (but maybe skip the garlic aioli).
Notes
- Refrigerate leftover patties in an airtight container for up to 3 days, and consider enjoying them sliced on a salad.
- For best results, gently reheat patties in a skillet with a splash of water to keep them moist, rather than microwaving.
- These burgers are intensely garlicky, so a simple lettuce and tomato topping will complement the flavor perfectly without overpowering it.
- To ensure the garlic flavor is evenly distributed, gently mix the ingredients just until combined – overmixing makes for a tougher burger.
