🍔 Giant Triple Cheeseburger
Ingredients (makes 1 huge burger)
For the patties
- 1 lb (450 g) ground beef (80/20 fat for juiciness)
- Salt & black pepper
For assembly
- 3 slices cheddar cheese (or your favorite cheese)
- 1 large burger bun or brioche bun
- Lettuce leaves
- Tomato slices
- Onion slices
- Pickles
- Ketchup, mustard, mayo, or your favorite burger sauce
Optional extras
- Bacon
- Sautéed mushrooms
- Caramelized onions
Instructions
- Form patties
Divide beef into 3 equal portions. Form into round patties slightly larger than your bun (they shrink while cooking).
Season both sides with salt and pepper. - Cook patties
- Grill: Preheat grill to medium-high. Cook 3–4 minutes per side for medium.
- Stovetop: Heat a skillet or cast-iron pan over medium-high heat. Cook 3–4 minutes per side.
- Melt cheese
Place a slice of cheese on each patty during the last 1–2 minutes of cooking. Cover pan to melt cheese evenly. - Toast bun
Lightly toast bun halves in the oven or on the grill. - Assemble burger
- Bottom bun → lettuce → first patty → second patty → third patty → tomato, onion, pickles → sauces → top bun.
- Press gently to hold together.
- Serve
Slice carefully (if desired) and serve with fries, onion rings, or crinkle-cut fries for that classic diner vibe.
Tips for the Ultimate Giant Burger
- Juicy patties: Don’t overwork the beef. Handle gently.
- Cheese: Use slices that melt easily (cheddar, American, or Swiss).
- Stability: Stack ingredients in order of heaviest-to-lightest to avoid toppling.
- Optional double-bun: For extra height and support, use a bottom-and-middle bun layer.
Variations
- Bacon triple cheeseburger: Add 3–6 strips of crispy bacon.
- Spicy version: Add jalapeños, pepper jack cheese, and sriracha mayo.
- BBQ style: Add barbecue sauce, cheddar, and crispy onion rings.
- Stuffed burger: Add cheese or mushrooms inside each patty before cooking.
If you want, I can give you a fully loaded diner-style recipe with special sauce, caramelized onions, and pickled jalapeños that’ll make it taste like a giant restaurant burger at home.
