Ingredients
- 1/2 head napa cabbage, chiffonade
- 1 jalapeno, seeded, stemmed and julienned
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons white vinegar
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1 ounce extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 small white onion, sliced
- 1 tablespoon light agave nectar
- 1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
- 2 pounds 80/20 ground chuck beef
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 4 ounces canola oil
- 8 slices American cheese
- 4 large eggs
- 4 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 4 brioche buns
Instructions
- For the Southern slaw: Add the cabbage, jalapeno, mayonnaise, white vinegar and sugar to a large bowl and toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside until ready to serve.
- For the burger: Place a large saute pan over medium heat. Once the pan is hot, add the olive oil followed by the onions and saute until just starting to brown, about 3 minutes. Add the agave and balsamic vinegar and toss to combine. Cook for about 10 minutes or until they reach your desired caramelized color. Set aside until ready to serve.
- Divide the beef into 8 even sections and form into patties. Sprinkle the patties on both sides with salt and pepper. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and add 2 ounces canola oil. Let get hot, then add the patties and cook 5 minutes per side or until they reach your desired doneness, frying in batches and adding oil as needed. Remove the patties from the skillet and top each with a slice of American cheese.
- Fry the eggs over-easy in the same skillet over medium-high heat, about 4 minutes.
- Place some mayonnaise on the bun bottoms and tops. Add 2 cheese-topped patties, a fried egg, onions and slaw to each, and finish with the bun tops. Serve.
