1
Forming the Patty
In a bowl, combine the dry-aged beef with salt and black pepper. Mix gently, being careful not to overwork the meat. Divide the mixture into equal portions and form into patties.
2
Cooking the Patty
Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on one side, then flip and place a slice of cheese on each patty. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the patty reaches your desired doneness.

3
Building the Burger
While the patties are cooking, toast the burger bun lightly. Once the patty is cooked, place it on the bottom half of the bun. Layer with lettuce, onion, tomato, and a generous drizzle of 540 sauce. Top with the other half of the bun.
