Ingredients

• 1/2 cup mayo
• 1 tbsp. finely chopped red onion
• 1 tbsp. ketchup
• 1 tbsp. sherry vinegar
• 1 tsp capers, drained and chopped
• 1 tsp chopped fresh parsley
• 1/2 tsp chopped fresh thyme
• 1/8 tsp sugar
• 1 lb. ground beef
• 1 1/2 tsp kosher salt
• 1 tsp black pepper
• 4 tbsp. olive oil
• 3 cheddar cheese slices, cut into quarters
• 12 mini slider brioche buns, split
• 1 small head iceberg lettuce, shredded
• 6 cherry tomatoes, sliced
• 3 cornichons, sliced

Directions

1. Preheat a grill to medium high. Stir together mayo, red onion, ketchup, vinegar, capers, parsley, thyme, and sugar in a small bowl until combined.

2. In a large bowl, add beef, 3/4 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp pepper. Using your hands, mix together until just combined. Make 12 meatballs by rolling beef mixture in your palms; transfer to a baking sheet. Flatten tops slightly. Drizzle with oil and season both sides with remaining 3/4 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp pepper.

3. Arrange patties on oiled grates; grill, uncovered, 3 minutes. Flip, then top each with 1 cheese piece. Grill, uncovered, until cheese is melted and beef is cooked through, about 2 minutes. Meanwhile, put buns, cut sides down, on grate; grill until toasted, about 1 minute.

4. Top bun bottoms with a small spoonful of sauce. Add a patty, shredded lettuce, tomato slices, cornichon slices and bun tops.
