Ingredients
- 2 pounds ground beef
- 2 large eggs, beaten
- 3/4 cup minced onion, divided
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- 1 package (17 ounces) dinner rolls
- 1/2 cup Thousand Island salad dressing, divided
- 10 slices American cheese
- 12 sliced dill pickles
- 1-1/2 cups shredded Iceberg lettuce
- 1 tablespoon butter, melted
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds, toasted
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350°. In a large bowl, mix beef, eggs, 1/2 cup minced onion, garlic powder, salt and pepper just until combined; do not overmix. Place meat mixture on a large, parchment-lined baking sheet; shape into two, 6x8-in. rectangles, each about 1/2-inch thick. Bake until a thermometer reads 160°, 15-20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, without separating rolls, cut rolls in half horizontally. Spread 1/4 cup of dressing evenly over bottom halves of rolls.
- Blot meat with paper towels to remove excess fat; top meat with cheese and return to oven. Bake until cheese has just melted, 2-3 minutes. Place meat on bottom halves of rolls; spread with remaining 1/4 cup dressing. Layer with pickles, remaining 1/4 cup minced onion and shredded lettuce; replace with top halves of rolls. Brush butter on top of rolls; sprinkle with sesame seeds. Serve immediately.
