# How to Make It:
01 -
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, breaking it up with a spatula as it browns.
02 -
Stir in chopped onions, kosher salt, black pepper, and Worcestershire sauce. Continue cooking for another 3 to 4 minutes until onions soften and beef is fully browned.
03 -
Add chopped pickles to the skillet and cook for 1 minute more. Reduce heat to low.
04 -
In a bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, French dressing, sweet relish, ketchup, vinegar, onion powder, and salt until smooth.
05 -
Add 1 cup of the prepared sauce to the beef mixture and stir until evenly combined. Reserve the remaining sauce for assembly.
06 -
Layer each sandwich: bottom bun, sauce, lettuce, cheese slice, beef, middle bun, more sauce, lettuce, pickle chips, more beef, and top bun. Toast buns if desired.
07 -
Serve sandwiches warm with extra sauce on the side, if preferred.
# Additional Tips:
01 -
Toast buns for added texture and warmth before sandwich assembly.
02 -
Prepare the sauce while the beef cooks to save time during assembly.
