Season the ground Wagyu beef with salt and pepper. Divide the meat into four equal portions and form patties about 2 cm thick. Tip: Don't overwork the meat to keep it juicy!
Heat a skillet or grill over medium-high heat. Brush the patties with a little olive oil, then cook on both sides for about 3-4 minutes, until nicely browned.
In the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty and cover the skillet to allow the cheese to melt.
Meanwhile, halve the hamburger buns and toast them in a dry skillet or with a little butter until golden brown on the inside.
Prepare the vegetables: slice the tomato and red onion into thin rounds, and slice the pickles.
In a bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and ketchup. Spread the mixture on the cut sides of the toasted buns.
Assemble the burgers: place a lettuce leaf on the bottom bun, followed by the cheesy patty, tomato, red onion, and pickles. Top with the other half of the bun.
Serve immediately, preferably with fries or homemade steak fries. Tip: For an even juicier burger, you can add a little extra butter when cooking the patties.
