Ingredients

1.5 pounds ground beef (80/20)

4 slices cheddar cheese

4 keto burger buns (store-bought or homemade)

1/2 cup shredded lettuce

1/4 cup sliced dill pickles

1/4 cup chopped white onion

2 tablespoons avocado oil

Salt and black pepper to taste

For the Special Sauce:

1/2 cup mayonnaise

2 tablespoons sugar-free ketchup

1 tablespoon yellow mustard

1 tablespoon pickle relish (sugar-free)

1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar

1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika

Pinch of erythritol or allulose (optional, to taste)

Method

In a small bowl, whisk together all ingredients for the special sauce until well combined. Set aside.

Divide the ground beef into 4 equal portions. Form each portion into a patty, slightly larger than your bun, and make a small indentation in the center of each patty to prevent bulging.

Season both sides of the patties generously with salt and black pepper.

Heat avocado oil in a large skillet or on a grill over medium-high heat.

Cook the burger patties for 3-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness. During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each patty and allow it to melt.

While the burgers are cooking, lightly toast the keto burger buns if desired.

Assemble the burgers: Spread a generous amount of special sauce on both halves of each bun. Place a cheeseburger patty on the bottom bun.

Top with shredded lettuce, sliced pickles, and chopped white onion.

Place the top bun on and serve immediately.
