Recipe Instructions

Step 1
Preheat an outdoor grill or grill pan for medium-high heat (400 to 450 degrees F/200 to 230 degrees C) and lightly oil the grate.
Step 2
Combine mayonnaise, red onion, ketchup, vinegar, capers, parsley, thyme, and sugar in a small bowl. Set aside.
Step 3
Mix beef, 3/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper in a large bowl by hand until just combined. Make 12 meatballs using your hands; transfer to a baking sheet. Flatten meatballs slightly. Drizzle with oil; season both sides with remaining each 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
Step 4
Grill patties on the preheated grill, uncovered, for 3 minutes. Flip; top each patty with 1 quartered piece cheese. Grill, uncovered, until cheese is melted and beef is cooked through, about 2 minutes. Grill buns, cut-sides down, until toasted, about 1 minute.
Step 5
Top bun bottoms with a small spoonful sauce; add 1 patty, shredded lettuce, tomato slices, cornichon slices, and top bun to each.
