Ingredients
- 1 lb ButcherBox Organic Ground Beef
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 4 slices cheddar cheese
- 4 hamburger buns
- 1 red onion sliced into rings
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 4 lettuce leaves
- 1 large tomato sliced
- Pickles sliced

Instructions
- Prepare the Patties: In a large bowl, mix the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Divide the mixture into 4 equal parts and shape into patties.
- Cook the Patties: Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired doneness. In the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheese on each patty to melt.
- Grill the Onions: While the patties are cooking, brush the onion rings with olive oil and grill for 2-3 minutes on each side until they are tender and have grill marks.
- Assemble the Platter: Arrange the cooked patties, buns, grilled onions, lettuce, tomato slices, pickles, avocado, and condiments on a large serving tray.
- Serve: Let everyone build their own burger with their favorite toppings and condiments.
Notes
Adaptations for Specific Diets:
- Gluten-Free: Replace regular buns with gluten-free buns or large lettuce leaves.
- Low Carb: Skip the buns altogether and use lettuce wraps; focus on low-carb toppings like avocado, cheese, and grilled vegetables.
- Dairy-Free: Use dairy-free cheese alternatives and ensure all condiments are dairy-free.
- Whole30/Paleo: Use lettuce wraps, avoid cheese, and use Whole30/Paleo compliant condiments like homemade mayo or mustard; ensure pickles are sugar-free.
