Ingredients
- 1 pound coarsely ground pork
- 1/4 tsp ground cumin
- 1/2 tsp try oregano
- 1 clove small finely minced garlic
- salt and pepper to season
- 8 ounces thin sliced deli ham
- 4 slices swiss cheese
- yellow mustard
- sliced dill pickles
- 4 crusty burger buns
Instructions
-
Sprinkle the ground pork with the minced garlic, cumin and oregano. Knead the seasonings into the ground pork a little so that it holds together better to form into patties.
-
Form the ground pork into four 5 inch patties. Season well with salt and pepper.
-
Fry the patties in a non stick pan until well browned and the internal temperature of the patties is 160-170 degrees. During the last minute or two of cooking time add one or two slices of cheese on top of the patties to melt.
-
Toast the buns under the broil and spread yellow mustard on both sides. Place about 1 1/2 ounces of the deli ham on each bun.
-
Add the cooked patties with the melted cheese on top of the ham, then add sliced dill pickles before topping with the second half of the bun. Serve immediately.
