  • 1 large tomato, sliced
  • 4 tbsp ketchup
  • 4 tbsp mustard

  4. In the last minute of cooking, place cheese slices on top of each patty to melt.
  5. Toast the brioche buns on the grill until golden brown.
  6. Assemble your burgers by layering lettuce, tomato slices, a cheesy patty, and your favorite condiments.
