• 1 lb Ground Beef
• 2 Brioche Burger Buns,
• 1 Cucumber
• 3 Mini Sweet Peppers
• 1 Tomato, sliced
• 2 Lettuce Leaves
• Chopped fresh herbs, such as Basil or Cilantro
• Oil
• ¼ cup White Wine Vinegar
• 1 tsp Sugar
• Salt and Pepper

Using a mandoline or sharp chef’s knife, thinly slice cucumber and mini sweet peppers. In small bowl, combine vinegar, sugar and 1/4 teaspoon sea salt, stirring until sugar and salt are dissolved. Add cucumber and pepper and toss to combine. Let sit, tossing occasionally, at least 15 minutes or up to 6 hours.

Meanwhile, heat drizzle of oil in a pan. Sprinkle meat with sea salt and pepper and gently mix by hand without breaking up too much. Form loosely into patties.

Place patties in pan – hot enough that they sizzle. At no point should you squash burger – keep juices inside! Cook until first side is well browned, then flip. Remove from pan when done to your liking.

Toast buns and assemble burgers with quick pickles, a lettuce leaf, and your favorite burger accompaniments.
