A delightful twist on the classic burger, combining rich flavors and a touch of elegance.
In a mixing bowl, combine the egg, grated onion, minced garlic, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper.
Grating the onion helps distribute its flavor evenly throughout the mixture.
Add the ground beef to the bowl and gently mix until just combined.
Avoid overmixing to keep the patties tender.
Shape the mixture into four equal patties, about 3/4-inch thick.
Use slightly wet hands to prevent the mixture from sticking.
Preheat the grill to medium heat and lightly oil the grates.
Ensure the grill is clean to prevent sticking.
Place the patties on the grill and cook for 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F.
Use a meat thermometer to check the temperature for perfect doneness.
Top each patty with a slice of cheddar cheese during the last minute of cooking.
Cover the grill briefly to help the cheese melt evenly.
Serve the burgers on buns with your favorite toppings and enjoy.
Toast the buns on the grill for added flavor and texture.
