Ingredients
Scale
Beef Patties
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp olive oil (for brushing)
Bowl Toppings
- 4 cups shredded romaine lettuce
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1/2 cup thinly sliced red onion
- 1 cup dill pickle slices
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/3 cup burger sauce
Instructions
- Prepare the Patties: In a bowl, combine the ground beef, garlic powder, onion powder, kosher salt, and black pepper. Mix gently to combine without overworking the meat, then form the mixture into four evenly sized patties.
- Preheat and Oil the Grill: Lightly brush each patty with olive oil. Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat to ensure a good sear and even cooking.
- Grill the Patties: Cook the patties on the preheated grill for 4 to 5 minutes per side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C). Once done, remove from heat and let the patties rest for 3 minutes to redistribute the juices.
- Assemble the Bowls: Divide the shredded romaine lettuce, halved cherry tomatoes, sliced red onion, and dill pickle slices evenly among four serving bowls.
- Add Patties and Toppings: Slice or crumble the rested beef patties over the bowls of veggies. Sprinkle each bowl with shredded cheddar cheese and drizzle with burger sauce just before serving to enjoy a flavorful, juicy burger experience in a bowl format.
Notes
- For best flavor, use freshly ground beef with about 20% fat content.
- Adjust salt and seasoning according to preference or dietary needs.
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure safe cooking temperature of the beef.
- Feel free to swap cheddar cheese with your favorite cheese or make it dairy-free.
- Burger sauce can be homemade using mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard, and pickle relish or store-bought.
- These bowls are great for meal prep and can be refrigerated for up to 2 days.
