Burgers are well-loved here at Ballerina Farm. The love is earned, as every patty is made with our very own ground beef. It's now a staple menu item at the Ballerina Farm food truck, keeping our chefs busy assembling top-notch burgers all year long. Every topping is grown at the greenhouses next door, so the options shift with the season—juicy tomatoes in the summertime, preserved pickles in the winter. Two things are always the same: well-seasoned, perfectly cooked patties, and a big slab of Ballerina Farm Brie melted over the top.

Ingredients:

    Burger Sauce

    Burgers & Assembly

    Directions:

      Burger Sauce

      1. To a medium bowl, add the ketchup, mayonnaise, mustard, onion powder, garlic powder, and paprika. Finely dice the pickles and onions, then add them to the sauce. Whisk until well combined. Set aside.

      Burgers & Assembly

      1. Prepare the toppings by washing and drying the tomato and lettuce. Slice the tomato, tear the lettuce, then peel and slice the white onion into ¼-inch rounds.* Set aside.
      2. Slice the brioche buns in half and drizzle with olive oil. Toast the buns either over the grill or on the flattop, watching carefully as the buns will burn quickly. Set aside.
      3. Divide the ground beef into six ⅓-pound patties and season generously with Ballerina Farm Salt & Spice Seasoning.
      4. Grill over medium to medium-high heat, or on a flattop over medium-high heat. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, then flip, add the cheese (if using), and cook for 1 to 2 more minutes.
      5. To assemble, add the burger sauce to the bottom bun, follow with onion, tomato, and lettuce, then finish with the burger patty. Add more sauce, if desired, and add the top bun. Enjoy immediately.

      Notes

      *If desired, drizzle the onion rounds with olive oil or liquid tallow and grill for 3 to 5 minutes, flipping halfway through, until tender and sweet.
