Form each portion loosely into a 3/4-inch-thick burger and make a deep depression in the center with your thumb
4
Season both sides of each burger with salt and pepper
5
Heat the oil in the pan or griddle over high heat until the oil begins to shimmer
6
Cook the burgers until golden brown and slightly charred on the first side, about 3 minutes for beef and 5 minutes for turkey
7
Flip over the burgers
8
Cook beef burgers until golden brown and slightly charred on the second side, 4 minutes for medium rare (3 minutes if topping with cheese) or until cooked to desired degree of doneness
9
Cook turkey burgers until cooked throughout, about 5 minutes on the second side
10
Add the cheese, if using, to the tops of the burgers during the last minute of cooking and top with a basting cover, close the grill cover, or tent the burgers with aluminum foil to melt the cheese
11
Combine the mayonnaise and roasted garlic in a small bowl and season with salt and pepper to taste
12
Spread both sides of each bun with the mayonnaise and the mustard

Place a slice of cheese on each bun bottom, place a burger on top, and then top the burger with a slice of ham, another slice of cheese, and some pickle slices
14
Cover with the bun tops
15
Cook the burgers on a sandwich press or wrap the burgers in aluminum foil and cook in a hot skillet over high heat (put a heavy skillet on top of the burgers to press them) until golden brown and the cheese has melted, about 1 1/2 minutes per side
