Wesson Mayo

In a large bowl whisk together all ingredients other than oil using a fine whisk.

Store in the fridge for up to one week.

Wesson Classic Burger Patties

In a large bowl, combine all burger patty ingredients and mix until fully incorporated, being careful not to overwork the meat.

Form into 6 equal sized patties, 3/4″-1″ thick.

In a large heavy bottom skillet, heat oil over medium. Fry burgers 3 at a time for approximately 4 minutes per side or until they reach an internal temperature of 160°F.

Assembly Method

While the burgers rest, slice and lightly toast buns. Spread 1 tbsp Wesson Mayo on the bun an other condiments as desired. Place the burger patty on top of the bottom bun and top with cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, pickles, and other condiments as desired.

Serve with Wesson Classic Fries.
