Steps:
- Heat the oven to 350 degrees F. Heat a large skillet.
- Divide each beef portion into 2 equal amounts and shape them into patties (you should have 4 patties altogether). Place 2 mozzarella slices on 1 patty, then top with another patty. Close the edges of the patties to enclose the cheese, basically stuffing the burger with the mozzarella. Wrap each burger with 2 slices of pancetta.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a medium oven-proof skillet over medium heat and brown each burger on both sides. Place the burgers in the oven to finish cooking.
- In a small saucepan, melt the butter and remove from heat. Meanwhile, chop the garlic and basil and add to butter with 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes. Brush this on the burger buns and toast under the broiler or in a toaster oven.
- In a bowl, toss together the arugula, olive oil, to taste, and the remaining 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes.
- Place the burgers on the bun bottoms, top with tomato slices, arugula salad and Basil Ketchup.

Steps:
- For Paul's burger sauce: In a medium bowl, whisk together all of the sauce ingredients.
- For the burgers: Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until almost smoking. Add about 1 tablespoon of oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter to the skillet. When the butter has melted, working in batches, open the buns and toast them in the skillet until they are golden brown.
- Wipe out the skillet and reheat it over medium-high heat. Season the burger patties with salt and pepper. Working in batches and using more of the oil and butter, place some of the burger patties in the skillet (do not crowd the pan). Cook until the burgers are well seared (about 3 minutes) and flip. Place a slice of cheese on each burger and continue to cook the burgers for 2 minutes longer. Cover the skillet to melt the cheese and steam the burgers. Continue until all the burgers are cooked, adding more oil and butter to the skillet between batches as necessary.
- Spread each side of the buns with about 2 teaspoons of Paul's burger sauce. Season the tomato slices with salt and pepper and place the tomatoes on the bottoms of the buns. Place the cooked burger patties on top of the tomatoes and then top the burgers with shredded lettuce. Secure the tops of the buns on the burgers with frilled toothpicks or small bamboo skewers.

THE BEST "MINI BURGERS" YOU WILL EVER TASTE
These mini burgers are so good! The recipe comes from the Neely's. Everyone I have made these for starts craving them and wants more and more. Try these as the recipe is written for the best results and then change it up if desired. I have to tell you, I don't like mustard and I love cheese. This uses dijon mustard and does not have cheese. I even tried them with the cheese and didn't like them as well. Hope you enjoy!

MINI BURGER BUNS RECIPE BY TASTY
If you're looking to go the extra mile and make hamburger buns from scratch, try out this recipe! It's easy and the results are impressive. After the buns come out of the oven, we brush them with melted butter to make them even more delicious. We turned these into mini buns, but if you want to make regular-sizes buns, just divide the dough into 8 equal portions and bake for 15-18 minutes instead.
