Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground beef (450 grams)

  • 2 teaspoons dried thyme
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons breadcrumbs
  • 4 tablespoons cooking oil

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Beef Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, dried thyme, egg, and breadcrumbs. Mix until just combined.
  2. Form Your Patties: Shape the mixture into four equal-sized patties.
  3. Get Your Skillet Ready: Heat the cooking oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  4. Cook the Patties: Carefully place your patties onto the skillet, cooking for about 4-5 minutes on one side. Flip and cook for another 4-5 minutes.
  5. Melt the Cheese: Once the patties are nearly done, place a slice of cheese on top of each one and cover the skillet for about a minute.
  6. Toast the Buns: Lightly toast your hamburger buns in a separate pan until golden.
  7. Assemble Your Monster: Begin with the bottom bun, add mayonnaise and ketchup, then lettuce, followed by the burger, more ketchup, pickles, and olives. Top it off with the top bun.
