Steps:

• Heat a gas or charcoal grill to high heat. Brush the grill grates with oil.
• For the fry sauce: Combine the mayonnaise, roasted red pepper puree and adobo sauce in a small bowl and stir together until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Use right away or cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow flavors to meld.
• For the burgers: Divide the meat into 4 equal portions (about 6 ounces each). Shape each portion with your hands into a round patty, about 3/4 inches thick. Use your thumb to make a divot in the center of each burger. Sprinkle both sides of each burger with salt and pepper.
• Grill, covered, until golden brown and slightly charred on the first side, about 3 minutes. Flip the burgers and cook until golden brown and slightly charred on the second side, about 4 minutes for medium.
• While the burgers cook, toast the buns on the grill until lightly charred, 10 to 15 seconds. Set aside.
• Add 2 slices of cheese to the tops of each burger. Cover the burgers with the grill lid, large domed lid or large metal bowl and count to 10 until the cheese is melted.
• Spread some yellow mustard on the bottom buns and spread some of the fry sauce on the top buns. Place the burgers on the bottom buns. Top with the shredded lettuce and the top buns and serve immediately.

YOUR BEST BACKYARD BURGER EVER

Steps:

• Place ground chuck, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Stir or use your hands to combine.
• Form four patties that are about 3/4 inch thick.
• Clean your grill. It is important to start with a clean grill. The burgers will taste better, the burgers will not stick, and it helps you make those pretty grill marks on your burger patty.
• Set or moderate your temperature to cook the burgers on medium-low to medium heat. My preferred temperature is 350 degrees F. You can test the temperature with a Thermapen if your grill does not have a thermostat.
• Place the patties on the grill. Once you have placed the patties on the grill try to turn them only once. The more often you turn the burgers the more likely you are to squeeze out the juices.
• Burgers should cook for 6 to 8 minutes on each side. You can test the temperature of the patty by inserting a meat thermometer into the patty. Ground meat patties should reach a temperature of 160 degrees F.
• Place a slice of cheese on top of each patty just before they are done so the cheese will be slightly melted.
• Remove the patties from the grill.
• Assemble your burger with your preferred toppings.

Place a slice of cheese on top of the patties and cook an additional 1 minute or until melted. Toast the buns (if desired), cut sides down, 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until lightly toasted.
