39. Mayo Mayo Mayo and particularly Hellman's...

And for your next million dollar burger? Mix a good dollop of Hellmann’s with a generous dose of VERY coarse cracked pepper and a lot of finely minced red onion. It needs to be a thick mixture and the pepper should be very visible. Melt Habanero Cheddar cheese slices (……we get this from our grocery deli sliced on a 4 so pretty thick…..) on your well salted medium rare to rare grilled burgers, slather both sides of each grilled bun with a dose of the Mayo/Pepper/Red Onion, assemble the burgers and serve. That’s it!

Total crowd pleaser!! Even friends who “shy away” from anything hot , or friends who don’t like mayo, ask us to make these again and again. And everyone always wants the “recipe”, although there really isn’t one. Just mix it up the way I described to your preference and you are good to go!

So yes - - MAYO for the win!!! LOL
