PREPARATION

• 1

  In a small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, mustard, ketchup, and minced pickles to create the secret sauce.

• 2

  Season the ground beef with garlic powder, onion powder, sea salt, and black pepper, then form it into a single thick patty.

• 3

  Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat and sear the patty for 4 to 5 minutes per side until it reaches your desired level of doneness.

• 4

  Place the cheddar cheese slice on the patty during the final minute of cooking and cover the pan briefly to melt it.

• 5

  Lightly toast the whole grain bun in the skillet or a toaster until the edges are golden and warm.

• 6

  Assemble the burger by spreading the secret sauce on the bottom bun, then layer the lettuce, tomato, onion, and the cheesy beef patty.
