About
• 1 1/2 teaspoons olive oil
• 1/3 cup diced onion
• 1/3 cup diced green bell pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/2 pound ground beef
• 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/2 teaspoon pepper
• 1/2 cup Sloppy Joe sauce, plus more for serving
• 2 slices thick-cut American cheese
• 2 hamburger buns
Recipe
- 1Heat a griddle or large skillet over medium high heat. Add oil, onion, and bell pepper; season with garlic powder and cook, stirring constantly, until softened and browned around the edges, about 5 minutes.
- 2Arrange onion mixture into 4 mounds. Divide beef into 4 portions and place each portion over a mound of peppers and onions. Using a flat spatula, press down firmly on each section to form thin patties. Season evenly with salt and pepper and cook, undisturbed, until browned on the bottom and around the edges, about 3 minutes.
- 3Flip burgers and top each with 2 tablespoons of Sloppy Joe sauce. Place cheese slices over two of the burgers and top with remaining 2 burgers.
- 4Toast each bun in pan drippings and add stacked burgers to buns. Serve with more sauce if desired.
