  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp ground mustard
  • 1 tsp vinegar (to replace Worcestershire sauce)
  • Vegan butter for cooking (or olive oil, avocado oil, or vegetable oil)
  • 4 slices dairy-free cheddar cheese
  • 4 buns (brioche or potato)
  • 4 Tbsps jam (substituted for bacon jam)
  • Bread & butter pickles or dill pickles (optional; sweet relish or pickled onions can also be used)
  • 1/2 cup vegan mayonnaise
  • 2 Tbsps premium BBQ sauce (homemade or store-bought)
  • 2–4 Tbsps almond milk, unsweetened (or your favorite plant-based milk)
  • 1 tsp fresh or dried cilantro

  2. Divide the mixture into four equal portions and form each into thick patties.
  3. Heat a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat and add vegan butter. Cook patties for about 5–7 minutes on each side until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).

  5. Assemble your burger by spreading BBQ ranch sauce on each bun and topping with pickles if desired.
