RECIPE: The Red Hook Tavern Cheeseburger

Name: RECIPE: The Red Hook Tavern Cheeseburger
Ingredients: 1 lb ground beef (an equal-parts blend of prime, dry-aged New York strip and chuck with a 75/25 lean-to-fat ratio), formed into loose 8-ounce patties; 4 slices of American cheese; 2 1/16; 2 crusty, seeded hamburger buns, closer to an Italian bread than a generic squishy bun (split); Unsalted butter to coat all four sides of split buns; 1-1 mix of Morton's kosher salt and ground black pepper

"At the Red Hook Tavern in Brooklyn, Billy Durney serves his own ode to the Peter Luger Steak House cheeseburger. The burger appears simple on the surface, but it's made from a rich blend of dry-aged beef, cooked carefully (with almost constant flipping) on a griddle for a perfect, even char on the outside...."
