Directions

Prep 15 minCook 10 min

1
In a small bowl, stir together half of the ketchup, the mayonnaise, pickle relish, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate until serving.
2
In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, oregano, remaining ketchup, and a light pinch of salt and pepper. Gently mix just until evenly combined.
3
Form equal patties, about 4 oz each, pressing to an even thickness with a slight dimple in the center to prevent doming.
4
Preheat a grill or a skillet over medium to medium-high heat. If using a skillet, add the oil and heat until shimmery.
5
Cook the patties 4–6 minutes per side until the cheese will melt and the centers reach 160°F. Flip once, then top each patty with a slice of cheddar to melt.
6
To assemble, place a large outer lettuce leaf on each plate, add a cheeseburger patty, tomato slices, and a spoonful of sauce. Wrap the lettuce around the fillings and serve immediately.
