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
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.
