Ingredients:

500g good-quality freshly ground beef mince (not lean)
200g speck, very finely chopped
4 thick slices vintage cheddar
4 large brioche buns, halved, lightly toasted
Baby endive, to serve (optional)
Tomato ketchup, to serve
150ml water
100ml white vinegar
50g caster sugar
9.60 gm sea salt
1/2 tsp mustard seeds
1/2 tsp coriander seeds
1 Lebanese cucumber, cut into 5mm-thick slices
2 red onions, thinly sliced
50g brown sugar
50g butter
40.00 ml sherry vinegar or red wine vinegar

Instructions:

To make the pickles, combine water, vinegar, sugar, salt, mustard, coriander, and fennel in a saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil and cook for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool. Place sliced cucumber in a ceramic or glass bowl, pour the pickling liquid over it, and let it stand for 1 hour or overnight to pickle.
Next, combine the mince and speck in a bowl, season generously, and mix thoroughly using your hands. Shape the mixture into four 2.5cm-thick patties, then transfer them to a plate lined with baking paper. Cover the patties with plastic wrap and chill in the fridge for 30 minutes until they are firm.
In a frying pan over medium-low heat, warm the oil. Add the onion and season to taste. Sauté for 10 minutes until softened, stirring occasionally. Mix in the sugar, butter, and vinegar until well combined. Lower the heat to low and cook for another 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thickened into a delicious jam.
Heat up a chargrill or barbecue grill on high. Grill the patties for 2-3 minutes on each side for your desired doneness. Add cheese on top and grill until melted. Place endive (optional), patty, pickles, onion jam, and bun tops. Serve with ketchup.
