Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Patties

    In a large bowl, combine ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix well, being careful not to overwork the meat. Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape them into patties.

  2. 2

    Cook the Patties

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on one side, until browned. Flip the patties and place a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the burgers are cooked to your desired level of doneness.

  3. 3

    Toast the Buns

    While the burgers are cooking, lightly toast the burger buns on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Burgers

    Spread ketchup and mustard on the bottom half of each toasted bun. Place a lettuce leaf, a cooked patty with melted cheese, a slice of tomato, and a few pickles on top. Finish with the top half of the bun.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the burgers immediately with your favorite side dishes.
