🍔 Mike’s Savory Burgers

Juicy, flavorful, and packed with lean protein — Mike’s Savory Burgers are everything you want in a homemade burger without the guilt. With a tangy sauce made from light mayonnaise, ketchup, and Worcestershire, these burgers deliver all the taste while keeping things balanced and wholesome. Perfect for a weeknight dinner or weekend barbecue! 🔥


🧂 Why You’ll Love This Recipe

These high-protein burgers are made with 92% lean ground beef, keeping them juicy yet lower in fat. The Dijon mustard adds depth and tang, while the low-carb ketchup mix gives a hint of sweetness and spice. The result? A burger that satisfies both fitness goals and flavor cravings! 😋


🧑‍🍳 How to Make It

  1. Prep the grill: Get it nice and hot and lightly spray the grates.
  2. Mix the beef: In a large bowl, combine lean ground beef, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper.
  3. Shape into patties: Make 4 even-sized patties and grill for 5–6 minutes per side until cooked through.
  4. Whip up the sauce: In a separate bowl, mix low-carb ketchup, light mayonnaise, red wine vinegar, and Worcestershire sauce.
  5. Toast the buns: Place the buns cut-side down on the grill for a quick golden toast — about 10 seconds.
  6. Assemble: Spread the tangy sauce on the buns, top with the grilled patties, and finish with sandwich pickles.

🥗 Serving Ideas

  • Grilled vegetables for a low-carb option 🥦
