These burgers are so good, they will haunt your thoughts… no doubt about it! As the title suggests, they’re inspired by the famous In and Out burger chain that started in California. I order mine as a lettuce wrap without the bun, so I thought I’d make an at home version the same way. According to the locals, you definitely need to order your hamburger animal style. From what I’ve worked out, this means with a lettuce bun, caramelized onions, and of course the secret sauce. All in all, nothing but delicious savory flavor.
How to make this recipe step by step
Step 7: When the burgers are finished, place a patty on one of the iceberg buns and top with all the toppings and plenty of sauce before adding the top iceberg bun. Or pile everything into a bowl and dive in! Step 5: Form the ground beef into 4 patties and smear the mustard evenly on one side of each burger. Step 6: Sear the beef patties mustard side down until the burgers are ready to turn. Then flip the burgers and add the optional slice cheese. The cheese will melt well on a grill over medium heat. But if you’re using a griddle, partially cover the burgers with a heat proof lid to help melt the cheese. I really hope you enjoy these In and Out Burger Lettuce Wraps!
