INGREDIENTS

1 1/3 lb. ground beef (80 percent lean) 2 tsp. Old Bay seasoning 1 tsp. Black pepper 1 tsp. Sea salt 4 slices cheddar cheese 1/2 c. mayonnaise 1 tsp. Old Bay seasoning 4 sesame seed buns, sliced in half ketchup mustard 1 jar dill pickle slices 1 red onion, sliced 1 tomato, sliced 4 leaves of butter lettuce

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Make the Burger Patties: Heat a grill pan or sauté pan over medium heat. As it heats, combine ground beef, Old Bay, pepper and salt. Form into four equally sized patties, about 1/3 lb apiece. Set on a platter next to the stove-top. Coat the warmed grill pan with cooking spray and place patties on the pan, cooking each side about 4-5 minutes, or until cooked through to your desired doneness. 2. Use a large star-shaped cookie cutter to cut each cheese slice into a star shape. Place the star-shaped cheese on each burger patty, in the last 30 seconds or so of cooking, so it melts a little. Set burger patties aside. 3. Make King Neptune's Poseidon Powder Aioli: Stir mayo and Old Bay until thoroughly combined. 4. Assemble the Sandwich: Spread Poseidon Powder Aioli on the bottom of each bun. Top with a burger patty, ketchup, mustard, pickles, onion slices, tomato and lettuce. Place the top bun on each burger. Serve.
