Celebrate the der Winter with a German-inspired burger night. Ground beef is the meat of choice for these tasty stacks, pan seared and sealed with a layer of melted Swiss cheese. The juicy patties get a Deutsch accent from shredded cabbage, cooked down with vinegar and whole-grain mustard for some Teutonic tanginess. Mustard mayo and a pretzel bun cushion complete the picture, while roasted Nantes carrots happily stand in for fries.

Preparation
Roast the carrots
Preheat the oven to 450°F. Halve the carrots lengthwise (quarter if large). On a lined sheet pan, toss with a drizzle of oil, ½ the spices and S&P. Roast, flipping halfway, 18 to 22 min., until tender.
Prepare & cook the patties
Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the beef, remaining spices and S&P. Form into 2 patties (double for 4 portions). In a large pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high. Add the patties* and cook, 3 to 5 min. per side, until browned and cooked through. In the final 2 min., top with the cheese. Transfer to a plate and keep warm.
Sauté the cabbage
Meanwhile, in a medium pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high. Add the cabbage, vinegar and ⅓ of the mustard. Sauté, 3 to 5 min., until softened; season with S&P.
Toast the buns
Meanwhile, toast the buns, cut-sides up, directly on an oven rack, 3 to 4 min., until warmed through.
Make the mustard mayo & serve
In a small bowl, combine the mayo and remaining mustard. Divide the carrots and bun bottoms between your plates. Top each bun bottom with the mustard mayo, a patty, a spoonful of the cabbage and a bun top. Serve the remaining cabbage on the side. Bon appétit!
