Ingredients

  • 2 lbs ground beef
  • 1 small red onion
  • 1 Tablespoon white wine vinegar
  • 6 slices prosciutto
  • 4 Tablespoons spicy mustard I used Sir Kensington's brand
  • 6 slices chipotle cheddar cheese
  • 2 cups purple cabbage thinly sliced
  • dill pickle hamburger chips
  • 6 hamburger buns

For the Chipotle Ranch Sauce

  • 1/4 cup ranch dressing
  • 1 Tablespoon ketchup
  • 1 teaspoon chipotle hot sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon white wine vinegar
  • 1/2 teaspoon white sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon worcestershire sauce

Instructions

  1. Preheat your grill to medium high heat.
  2. Form your ground beef into 6 patties that are slightly larger than your buns. Refrigerate while the grill heats, and you prepare the rest of your ingredients.
  3. Thinly slice the red onion. In a medium bowl combine onion, 1 Tbsp. white wine vinegar and a generous pinch of salt. Toss to combine. Set aside.
  4. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add prosciutto slices carefully as to not tear them. Cook, turning occasionally until crisp. Remove from pan and place on a paper towel to absorb excess oil.
  5. To prepare the chipotle ranch sauce, whisk together all ingredients. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
  6. Remove burger patties from the fridge. Generously season both sides with salt and pepper and place on the grill over direct heat. Brush the top of each patty with 1/3 Tbsp. of spicy mustard. Cook 4-5 minutes, flip, and brush the other side with spicy mustard. Cook until burger reaches desired doneness. Top each burger with a slice of cheese and close grill lid until cheese melts, about one minute. Remove from heat.
  7. 7. To assemble the burgers; Toss purple cabbage with burger sauce. Place a generous spoonful of cabbage mixture on the bottom of the bun. Top with a cheesy burger patty. Add a slice of crispy prosciutto, sliced dill pickles, and top with a pinch of pickled red onions. Add top bun and enjoy!
