2 lg Persian cucumbers; sliced
- 1/8" thick
1/4 c Soy sauce
2 tb Chopped scallions

- serving

In a medium bowl, combine vinegar, 1 teaspoon salt and 1
teaspoon sugar, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Add
cucumbers and toss to coat, then let stand at room
temperature.

Heat broiler to high and set oven rack 6 inches from
heat. In a small bowl, combine soy sauce, scallions,
garlic, 1/2 teaspoon pepper and remaining 2 tablespoons
sugar. Mix well, stirring until the sugar is dissolved.
Transfer 1 tablespoon of the marinade to a small bowl
and stir in mayonnaise and 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil. Set
aside.

In a medium bowl, combine beef and 3 tablespoons of the
scallion marinade. Gently mix to incorporate. Form into
8 thin patties (each about 4 1/2" wide) and arrange in a
single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Brush tops with
half of the marinade. Flip and brush with the remaining
marinade. Broil until golden and caramelized on top,
about 4 minutes.

Arrange cheese on 4 patties, top with the remaining
patties and let stand until cheese melts, about 1
minute.

Pour off all the liquid from the cucumbers and stir in
the remaining 2 teaspoons sesame oil.

Smear the cut side of the buns with some of the seasoned
mayonnaise. Arrange bottom buns on plates. Layer with
lettuce, onion, tomato, double-stack burgers, pickles
and top bun. Serve with extra pickles on the side.
