Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • 1 egg
  • 1/4 cup onion, minced
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 1/4 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tsp dijon mustard
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp pepper
  • 4 slices sharp cheddar cheese
  • 4 buns (I used pretzel)
  • burger topping of your choice

Method
 

  1. Add beef, egg, onion, garlic, breadcrumbs, Worcestershire sauce, dijon mustard, salt and pepper to a bowl. Using your hands gently combine mixture. Form meat into four burger patties. Place on a sheet pan, press a well into the centre of the patty.
  2. Preheat your barbecue to high heat. While the grill heats prepare your buns (I love pretzel buns!) and toppings. Suggested toppings: lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, ketchup, mayonnaise and mustard.
  3. Grill burgers over high heat for 7 to 8 minutes per side with the lid closed. Add cheese in the final minute of cooking. Remove from grill and assemble burgers.
