X-Tudo -- The Brazilian Burger of All Burgers!
Equipment
- pan
- bowl
Ingredients
- 1 ½ pounds ground beef 80 percent lean
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- ¾ teaspoon granulated garlic powder
- 1 pinch cumin
- 1-½ tablespoons vegetable oil
- 4 slices mozzarella cheese
- 4 hamburger buns split and toasted, if desired
- Mayonnaise I like to use Hellman's lime mayonnaise
- 4 lettuce leaves
- 4 tablespoons steamed corn kernels
- 4 slices tomato large slices
- 4 fried eggs
- 4 slices deli ham or hard salami I used hard salami on mine
- 8 strips of smoked bacon cooked
- Shoestring potatoes
- Ketchup and either deli or Dijon mustard
Instructions
- Prepare the burger patties: In a large mixing bowl, combine together the ground beef, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and cumin. Mix until well incorporated. Divide the ground meat into 4 equal portions of 6 ounces each. Form each portion loosely into an approximately ¾-inch-thick burger patty.
- In a large cast-iron griddle pan, spread and heat the oil until just beginning to shimmer. Cook the burger patties for about 3 minutes or until slightly charred on the first side. Then, flip over the burger patties and cook for 3 minutes or until slightly charred on the second side. Top each patty with one slice of cheese and cover the pan so cheese can melt (about 1 minute).
- To assemble the X-Tudo: Spread mayonnaise on the inside of the buns. Top the bottom part of the bun with one lettuce leaf, 1 tablespoon of cooked corn kernels, one slice of tomato, one burger patty with melted cheese, one fried egg, one slice of ham or salami, a sprinkle of crushed or ground black pepper, 2 strips of bacon, and shoestring potatoes. Squeeze on ketchup and deli mustard, and then top with the other half of the bun. Serve x-tudo immediately with guaraná soda or beer. Enjoy!
