There are those that adore them, and those that passionately hate them… so it’s safe to say pickles are a somewhat controversial burger addition. Well, in this multilayered burger sensation, pickle is the hero! Pickle-infused ‘smash’ patties are layered up with three types of pickle – sauerkraut, homemade picked red onions and sliced pickles, and three cheeses – cheddar, smoked and swiss. And to add a bit more chaos to the multiple layers of pickle and cheese, we literally injected this burger with Best Foods Garlic Aioli, ensuring ever layer enjoyed a creamy garlic hit!

Method
Make the quick pickled red onions by adding all the ingredients together in a small jar or bowl, then set aside to cool.
To prepare the patties, mix the beef mince, aioli and chopped pickles together in a bowl and season well with salt and pepper.
Divide mixture into 8 x balls, then heat a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat.
Add a tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet, then place each ball on to the heated skillet and ‘smash’ it down into a rustic pattie with a burger press or fish slice.
Cook for 3-4 minutes then turn and continue cooking until cooked through (71°C).
While the patties are cooking, toast your brioche buns under the grill until lightly golden brown, then set aside.
Once the patties are cooked it is time to layer up your burgers.
