Ingredients
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) and adjust rack to middle position. Wash and dry produce. Cut potatoes into ½-inch-thick wedges. Toss on a baking sheet with a drizzle of oil, salt and pepper. Roast until browned and tender, 20-25 minutes.
- Meanwhile, thinly slice tomato into rounds. In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, mustard, 1 teaspoon water, ½ teaspoon garlic powder and ½ teaspoon Old Bay seasoning. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine ground beef, ½ teaspoon Old Bay seasoning and ¼ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce. Form into two patties slightly wider than the buns. Season lightly with pepper. Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium heat. Cook patties 3-5 minutes per side until browned and cooked to your liking. In the last 1-2 minutes, top each patty with a slice of cheddar; cover pan until cheese melts.
- While burgers cook, wrap corn in damp paper towels and microwave until tender, 3-4 minutes. Let rest 1 minute, then halve crosswise. Halve and toast buns until golden. Spread a thin layer of the Old Bay aioli on bottom buns. Top with patties, tomato slices and bun tops. Serve burgers with corn, potato wedges and remaining aioli on the side.
Recipe Tips
For extra crispy potato wedges, flip them halfway through roasting.
If you prefer your corn with a char, grill it in a hot pan after microwaving.
Let the burgers rest for a minute after cooking to keep them juicy.
