Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Gather all your ingredients, chop the garlic, dice the onion and green pepper, and butter your burger buns.
  2. Slice the hamburger buns in half and spread a thin layer of butter or mayo on the cut sides. Toast them in the preheated oven for about 5 minutes.
  3. In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium flame. Add the ground beef, diced onion, and green pepper. Cook for about 5-7 minutes.
  4. Stir in the chopped garlic and cook for an additional 2 minutes. Combine the beef broth, cornstarch, and beef bouillon in a cup and pour into the skillet.
  5. Add the ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, and all remaining seasonings to the skillet. Let the mixture simmer for 5-7 minutes.
  6. Once thickened, stir in the cheddar cheese until it melts and combines with the meat mixture.
  7. Spoon a generous portion of the beef and cheese mixture onto the toasted buns. Top each with a slice of provolone cheese.
  8. Return the assembled sandwiches to the oven and bake for approximately 10 minutes or until the provolone cheese is bubbly and golden.
  9. Serve hot with a side of crunchy potato chips or a fresh salad.
