Instructions

  1. 1
    Mix ground beef with salt, pepper, and paprika powder. Form 4 equal-sized patties — don't press too hard or they will be dry.
  2. 2
    Heat pan or grill to high heat. Cook patties 3 minutes per side until a nice crust forms.
  3. 3
    Reduce heat: Add 0.5 tbsp cannabutter to each patty and let melt. Top with cheese, cover for 1 minute until cheese melts.
  4. 4
    Toast buns briefly. Top with iceberg lettuce, tomato, and onion. Place patty on bun, add mayonnaise, close bun — serve immediately.

Pro Tips

  • Add cannabutter at the end only — high heat destroys THC.
  • For a milder version: use only 1/4 tbsp cannabutter per patty, use regular butter for the rest.
  • Control dosage by number of servings — each burger = 1 serving.
