1 tbs olive oil
1/2 cup real mayo

For the Philly Cheesesteak Burgers

1 lbs ground beef ground sirloin and well marbled rib eye if possible
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce

4 provolone slices

Instructions

Make the rosted garlic aioli

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Chip the top bit off of the head of garlic, exposing the cloves. Don't worry about the skin.
Place in an aluminum foil packet and drizzle with olive oil and ap pinch of salt.
Wrap the foil around the garlic and bake it for 40 minutes.
Carefully remvoe the garlic from the oven and let it cool.
When cool enough to handle, squeeze the garlic from the skin and pulse in a food processor.
Add the mayo, and pulse until combined.
Season with salt and pepper if needed.
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.

Make the burgers

Mix the ground beef, Worcestershire sauce, Montreal Steak seasoning, and salt and pepper in a bowl.
Form into even patties with an indent from your thumb in the center.
Place the patties in the fridge to rest for 30 minutes to an hour.

Cook the Burgers

Preheat your grill for medium-high.
Clean and oil the grill grates.
Preheat a skillet on the grill and add a tablespoon of oil. Swirl to coat the pan.
Add the onions and peppers and cook until they are softened 8 to 10 minutes.
Carefully set the skillet aside.
Place the burgers on the preheated grill and cook until done, 5 to 7 minutes, flipping once halfway through, until they reach an internal temp of 140 degrees F with a digital meat thermomter.
Cover with cheese, close lid and let the cheese melt, a minute longer.

Serve

Arrange the burgers on toasted buns with the garlic mayo, lettuce, peppers and onions. Serve warm and with napkins.
