Tips for Experienced Cooks

For an extra layer of flavor, toast your burger buns with garlic butter. Instead of pre-made sweet potato fries, opt to make your own from fresh sweet potatoes; cut them into even-sized pieces, soak in cold water for at least an hour to remove excess starch, then dry thoroughly before tossing with oil and baking. This method ensures crispier fries. Experiment with the coleslaw by adding other vegetables like thinly sliced bell peppers or carrots for added texture and color.

Step 1: Prepare the burger patties

In a bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, onion, garlic, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper. Mix well. Form the beef mixture into 4 patties, about 1-inch thick.

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp ketchup
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper

Step 2: Cook the burgers

Preheat the grill or a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the burgers for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until cooked to your desired level of doneness.

Step 3: Bake the sweet potato fries

Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Place the sweet potato fries on a baking sheet and toss with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until crispy and golden brown.

  • 2 lbs sweet potato fries
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper

Step 4: Make the coleslaw dressing

In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, sugar, celery seed, salt, and pepper to make the coleslaw dressing.

  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1 tsp celery seed
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

Step 5: Assemble the coleslaw

In a large bowl, combine the shredded cabbage and coleslaw dressing. Toss until the cabbage is well coated.

  • 1 head cabbage, shredded

Step 6: Toast the buns

Toast the burger buns if desired.

Step 7: Assemble the burgers

Assemble the burgers by placing a cooked patty on the bottom half of each bun. Top with a slice of cheddar cheese, and any desired toppings. Place the top half of the bun on top.
