Ingredients

egg salad

  • 4 eggs
  • 1/4 cup mayo
  • 2 tablespoons mustard
  • 1 teaspoon hot sauce
  • 1 lemon juice
  • 2 scallions minced
  • 1 clove garlic grated
  • 1 tablespoon chopped parsley
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Burger

  • 1/2 pound ground beef 80% lean
  • 2 slices Munster cheese
  • 2 brioche buns
  • 2 tablespoons mayo
  • 2 strips bacon cooked and cut in half
  • 6 pickle chips
  • 1/4 cup crushed potato chips

Instructions

Egg salad

  • Bring water to a boil and add the eggs. Cook for 9 -10 minutes. While they are cooking prepare a bowl with ice and water. Transfer the eggs to the bowl with ice. I like to add them to the bowl aggressively so they slightly crack. This will make it easier to peel them later.
  • Peel the eggs and rinse off any excess shell. Chop the eggs and add them to a large bowl.
  • Add all the remaining egg salad ingredients to the bowl and stir to combine. Taste and adjust salt if needed.

Burgers

  • split the grund beef in half and form two patties. Preheat a pan to high heat. Season the patties with salt and pepper and add to the pan.
  • Cook to brown on both sides and until medium in the center, about 3 - 4 minutes per side with a thin burger like this. When you flip the burger, add the cheese.
  • Broil or toast the buns for a few minutes until golden. Top with the mayo. It isnt much because there is plenty of mayo in the egg salad.
  • Add the burgers to the bottom buns, then the bacon, then the pickles, then the egg salad. Top with the chips and then the top buns and serve.
