Instructions

Step 1: In a medium bowl, combine 1 lb ground beef with 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Form into four 4-inch diameter patties, about 3/4 inch thick. Set aside.
Step 2: Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef patties and cook for 4 minutes per side until medium-well and browned. Remove and keep warm.
Step 3: In a separate skillet, melt 2 tbsp unsalted butter over medium heat. Add 12 shucked oysters and sauté gently for 2-3 minutes until the edges are crispy and the oysters are just cooked through. Remove from heat.
Step 4: In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup mayonnaise, 1 tbsp Dijon mustard, 1 tsp hot sauce, 1 tbsp lemon juice, 1/2 tsp smoked paprika, and 1/4 tsp garlic powder until smooth and well combined.
Step 5: Lightly toast 4 burger buns. Spread 1 tbsp of the spicy remoulade on the bottom half of each bun. Layer each with a lettuce leaf, a cooked burger patty, 3 pan-seared oysters, a slice of tomato, and 2 red onion rings.
Step 6: Spread 1 tbsp of remoulade on the top bun halves and close the burgers. Serve immediately while warm with your favorite sides.
