If you’re looking to make an extreme burger loaded with flavor, look no further. This burger is made with 80/20 beef, which means it has 20% fat mixed into the grind, so it will be extra juicy.
Add to that four types of deli meat, two types of cheeses and homemade olive spread and pepperoncini peppers and fuhgettaboutit. It’s insanely good, especially when smashed between an extra tender brioche bun.

- Heat the grill to high heat. Rub some oil on the grill grates. Place the buns on the grill, cut side down and grill for 30-60 seconds, until toasted. Remove and set aside.
- Add the burger patties to the grill, and grill for 6 minutes. Flip. Grill for 4 more minutes. While still on the grill, top each patty with 1 slice of provolone, 1 slice ham, 2 slices salami, 2 slices pancetta, 2 slices cappacola and 1 slice mozzarella cheese. Close the grill, and cook until the cheese is melted.
- To assemble, spread the olive mixture on the top and bottom buns. Add a patty to the bottom bun. Top with pepperoncinis. Add the top bun.
