All the flavour, none of the bun—just better ingredients!
Take everything you love about a classic In-N-Out burger—melty cheese, seasoned beef, caramelized onions, and that signature sauce—and ditch the bun. This Animal Style–inspired salad hits every note, with a fresh crunch from lettuce and pickles and unbeatable flavour from Nutrafarms’ grass-fed, free-range ground beef.
✨ Ingredients:
Salad Base:
- Lettuce (shredded or thinly sliced)
- Pickles (sliced)
- 1 large onion (diced)
- Slices of cheese (your choice)
Sauce:
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- ¼ cup ketchup
- 2 tsp relish
- Pinch of sugar
Beef + Seasoning:
- 1 pack Nutrafarms grass-fed ground beef
- Salt & pepper to taste
- 1 tbsp garlic powder
- 1 tbsp onion powder
- Dash of Worcestershire sauce
- ½ cup broth (beef or chicken)
- Squeeze of mustard
🔥 Instructions:
1. Prep Your Toppings:
Chop the onion, slice the pickles, and shred the lettuce. Set everything aside for assembly.
2. Caramelize the Onions:
In a pan over medium heat, cook the diced onions until golden and caramelized. Remove from the pan once soft and fragrant.
3. Mix the Sauce:
In a small bowl, stir together mayo, ketchup, relish, and a pinch of sugar. Chill in the fridge while you cook the beef.
4. Cook the Beef:
In the same pan used for the onions, add your Nutrafarms ground beef. Once it starts to brown, add salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, Worcestershire sauce, broth, and mustard. Cook for 7–10 minutes until the beef is fully browned and seasoned to perfection.
5. Melt the Cheese:
With the heat still on, layer slices of cheese over the beef and let it melt right in the pan.
6. Assemble Your Salad:
In a large bowl, layer lettuce, caramelized onions, cheesy beef, and pickles. Drizzle generously with the sauce.
7. Serve & Enjoy:
Dig in with a fork—and don’t be surprised if this becomes your new favourite burger bowl!
