Beef Patty

1 pound Ground beef

1 tsp Celtic sea salt

1/2 tsp black pepper

1/2 tsp Watkins garlic powder

Toppings

2 slices Cheddar cheese slices

2 leaves Lettuce leaves

1 medium Tomato

to taste Ketchup

to taste Mustard

to taste Pickles

Bun

2 buns Hamburger buns

Method

Prepare the Beef Patty

Mix the Ingredients

In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Use your hands to mix the ingredients until just combined.

Form the Patties

Divide the mixture into two equal portions and shape them into patties, making a slight indentation in the center of each patty to prevent them from puffing up while cooking.

Grilling the Patties

Preheat the Grill

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F or 200°C).

Grill the Patties

Place the patties on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side. Flip the patties and place a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each patty. Grill for another 3-4 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the patties are cooked to your desired doneness.

Assemble the Cheeseburger

Toast the Buns

Optional: Toast the hamburger buns on the grill for about 1-2 minutes until golden brown.

Build Your Burger

On the bottom half of each bun, place a lettuce leaf, followed by the grilled patty with melted cheese. Add tomato slices, pickles, ketchup, and mustard to taste. Top with the other half of the bun.
