Customize It Instructions

  • If using 20 oz. ground beef, follow same instructions as 10 oz. ground beef, forming four patties and stacking two to serve.

  • If using ground pork, follow same instructions as ground beef in Steps 2 and 4, cooking until pork reaches minimum internal temperature, 4-6 minutes per side.

  1. 1

    Bake the Fries

    Cut potatoes into ¼" fries and pat dry.

    In a mixing bowl, combine fries, 1 tsp. olive oil, garlic salt, and breadcrumbs until evenly coated.

    Transfer fries to prepared baking sheet. Spread into a single layer and spray with cooking spray.

    Bake in hot oven until lightly browned, 25-30 minutes, tossing fries halfway through.

    While fries bake, continue recipe.

  2. 2

    Prepare Ingredients and Make Bruschetta

    Core tomato and cut into 1/4" dice.

    In another mixing bowl, combine tomato, pesto, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Set aside.

    Form ground beef into two equally-sized patties, about 5" in diameter. Season both sides with a pinch of salt and pepper.

  3. 3

    Toast the Rolls

    Place a large non-stick pan over medium heat.

    Add rolls to hot, dry pan, cut side down, and toast until golden brown, 30-60 seconds.

    Transfer rolls to a plate. Keep pan over medium heat.

  4. 4

    Cook the Patties

    Add 1 tsp. olive oil and patties to hot pan. Cook until lightly charred and patties reach a minimum internal temperature of 160 degrees, 4-6 minutes per side.

    Top patties with bruschetta and cheese and cover. Remove from burner. Set aside until cheese is melted, 3-5 minutes.

  5. 5

    Finish the Dish

    Plate dish as pictured on front of card, spreading garlic aioli evenly on bottom bun and topping with patty and top bun. If desired, reserve a small portion of garlic aioli for dipping fries. Bon appétit!
