The humble burger has had a comeback in recent years. From gourmet versions with foie gras and lobster to downright dirty, the bun and meat combo is all the rage. We’ll leave the crazier variations (ramen burger, anyone?) to other people and instead give you our take our Sloane’s Cheese Burger recipe.

Ingredients

1 Pack of Sloane’s Wagyu Beef Burgers

4 Burger Buns

1 pack of Provolone cheese slices

Little Gem Lettuce

Ripe, Red Tomato

Dill Pickles

Inner Pickle Ketchup

Methods

  • For our Sloane’s Cheese Burger recipe, we prefer to cook a burger on a charcoal BBQ. The extra flavour is perfect for our dry-aged beef, but it can be done on a gas BBQ or a good pan if needed. It will still be great. If using a pan we always recommend a heavy based pan that holds the heat such as a cast iron pan.
  • Whether it’s a BBQ or a pan, it’s important to cook at the correct temperature. Keep your BQQ grill or pan at a medium to high heat. If using charcoal, you want the coals to have burnt down to an ash to get an even heat.
  • Make sure your hot grill or pan is lightly oiled. When placing the burgers on you want to hear a good sizzling noise. Once on just leave them to get a good sear and turn only once. Regular turning can toughen the meat, and if you turn too soon the burgers may stick. Aim for about 3-4 minutes and then turn and cook the same on the other side.
  • Unless you’re making a ‘smash’ burger, don’t press on the burgers. You want to keep those juices inside. Once cooked leave on the side to rest. Like all meats, resting is a vital part of cooking a good burger and it allows the juices even out. We usually add the cheese slice when it first comes off the grill and it will slowly melt while the meat rests. Five minutes is all that’s needed and gives you time to grill your bun.
