A delightful twist on the classic California burger, featuring fresh ingredients and a burst of flavors.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Ensure the grill is clean and well-oiled to prevent sticking.
Form the ground beef into four equal patties and season with salt and pepper.
Make a small indentation in the center of each patty to prevent it from puffing up during cooking.
Grill the patties for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until cooked to your desired doneness.
Avoid pressing down on the patties to retain their juices.
Place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty during the last minute of grilling to melt.
Cover the grill briefly to help the cheese melt evenly.
Slice the avocado and red bell pepper into thin slices.
Use a spoon to scoop out the avocado for easier slicing.
Toast the burger buns on the grill for a minute or until lightly browned.
Keep an eye on the buns to prevent burning.
Assemble the burgers by layering lettuce, grilled patty with cheese, avocado slices, and red bell pepper on the bottom bun.
Spread the condiments on the buns before assembling for even flavor distribution.
Spread mayonnaise, ketchup, and mustard on the top bun and place it on the assembled burger.
Mix the condiments together for a unique sauce blend.
Serve the burgers immediately and enjoy!
