DOUBLE DOWN

Skip the drive-thru line with our all-beef patties, stacked high for a double dose of meat and topped off with cheese, pickles and our lip-smacking burger sauce.

Our double-decker burger is all about the beef

THE BIG CL BURGER MAKES 4 BURGERS HANDS-ON TIME 25 MINUTES TOTAL TIME 25 MINUTES 800 g medium ground beef ½ tsp each salt and pepper 8 slices cheddar cheese ⅓ cup The Ultimate Burger Sauce (see recipe, right) 4 double-decker burger buns (see tip, right) ½ cup finely chopped onion 2 cups shredded iceberg lettuce 16 rounds bread-andbutter pickles

Divide beef evenly into 8 mounds; between parchment paper, flatten into 5-inch wide patties with bottom of heavy skillet. Sprinkle both sides with salt and pepper.

In large cast-iron skillet, cook patties, 2 at a time, over medium-high heat, until bottoms are browned and lift easily from pan, about 1 minute; flip. Top each patty with 1 slice of cheddar; cook until bottoms are browned, patties are cooked through and cheese is melted, about 1 minute.

Spread 1 tsp of the burger sauce onto bottom third of each bun; top with half of the onion and lettuce. Layer 1 patty, 2 pickle rounds and middle thirds of buns over top; spread 1 tsp of the remaining burger sauce onto each. Layer remaining onion, lettuce, patties, pickles and burger sauce over top; sandwich with top thirds of buns.
