WHAT YOU NEED:

• 3 TB coconut aminos
• 1 tsp sea salt
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• 1/2 tsp turmeric
• 1/2 tsp cumin
• 1/4 tsp chili powder (though we mostly use Burn’s probiotic pepper powder)
• 1 pound of grass fed ground beef (note: we like to go with higher fat ground beef for flavor, nutrition, and price)
• 2-3 slices of pastured bacon, cooked
• raw jack cheese sliced thin for each burger

Optional vessel and accompaniments:

• 1 onion, sliced
• 2 TB ghee
• 1 tsp sea salt
• 2 cups arugula
• Primal Kitchen ranch (TRUST ME – and get 10% off with code: RADICALROOTS)
• 1 avocado, sliced
• Farmhouse smoked jalapeno kraut (best kraut EVER)

WHAT YOU DO:

• turn on your grill to high heat (and a pan to high heat on the stovetop if you’re having the onions)
• put all seasoning ingredients except ground beef in a bowl and combine with a fork
• throw in the beef and knead it with your hands until the seasoning is well combined with the beef
• separate into evenly portioned balls and pat flat for the grill (about 1/2 inch)
• if you’re having onions, once the pan is hot, add ghee and throw them in with sea salt, stirring occasionally
• once your grill is hot, put your burgers on, leaving the lid open, and grilling until liquid starts coming from the top of the burger, about 4 minutes
• flip, add bacon slices, and top with cheese, and grill another 2-4 minutes depending on desired doneness
• while burgers are grilling, put arugula on a plate and drizzle with ranch
• top arugula with finished cheesy burgers, add onions, kraut, and avocado, and ENJOY!
