Best Hamburger Recipe (and Famous Secret Sauce)

    Burger:
    1 pound ground beef (80/20)
    5 sesame seed buns
    1/2 cup Monterrey jack cheese, grated
    1/8 - 1/4 cup BBQ sauce
    Seasoned salt, to taste
    Black pepper, to taste
    Onion powder, to taste

    Secret Sauce:
    3/4 cup mayo
    1/4 cup ketchup
    1/4 cup relish
    2 Tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
    Seasoned salt, to taste

In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, grated cheese, bbq sauce, and seasonings. Don't add too much bbq sauce or the patties will have a hard time taking shape. Shape patties that are about 1 inch thick (about 5 patties). (You can also freeze the patties after shaping them for about 1 hour to help them hold their shape.)
    
Turn grill up to high and let it get hot.
    
Reduce heat to medium-high and place the burgers on the grill. Allow this side of the patty to cook for about 4-6 minutes, but make sure it does not burn. Then flip the burger over and cook until done.
    
For the sauce, combine all sauce ingredients and whisk until well mixed. Taste and adjust ingredients to your liking.
    
Assemble the burgers and serve with the special sauce and other hamburger toppings of choice.
