Instructions
Preheat oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit.
In a small bowl, whisk together the sour cream, red wine vinegar, lemon juice, minced garlic, 1 teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce, ¼ teaspoon of salt, ¼ teaspoon of black pepper, and ⅛ teaspoon of cayenne. Set aside.
Meanwhile, in a large bowl, gently mix the ground beef, ½ cup of Parmesan, the remaining 1 tablespoon of minced garlic, the remaining 1 tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce, remaining ½ teaspoon of black pepper, and the remaining ⅛ teaspoon of cayenne. Shape into 4 ¾-inch thick patties.
Let set while heating a large nonstick skillet or griddle over med-high heat.
Cook the burgers on one side for 5 to 6 minutes, then flip, cooking 4 to 5 minutes more.
While the burgers cook, split the buns in half and brush each half with olive oil. Sprinkle with garlic powder, salt, and pepper, and bake on a rimmed baking sheet for 5 to 7 minutes until just starting to brown. Remove from the oven.
Toss the lettuce with ½ of the sauce and the remaining ½ cup of Parmesan.
On the bottom halves of each bun, pile on a handful of the dressed lettuce (you will like to have lettuce leftover) and top with a burger patty. Spoon on some of the remaining sauce and add the bun tops.
