Burger Patties

Toppings

Method

Prepare the Patties

  1. 1

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix well until all the spices are evenly incorporated into the beef.

  2. 2

    Form the Patties

    Divide the beef mixture into two equal portions and form them into patties that are slightly larger than the burger buns. Make a slight indentation in the center of each patty to prevent them from puffing up while cooking.

Cook the Patties

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill or stovetop pan over medium-high heat.

  2. 4

    Cook the Patties

    Place the patties on the grill or pan. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side, then flip them over.

  3. 5

    Add Blue Cheese

    After flipping the patties, immediately top each one with blue cheese crumbles. Cook for another 4-5 minutes, or until the burgers reach your desired doneness.

Assemble the Burgers

  1. 6

    Prepare the Toppings

    While the burgers are cooking, wash the lettuce leaves and slice the tomato into thick slices.

  2. 7

    Build the Burger

    Once the patties are cooked, remove them from the grill. Place each patty on the bottom half of a burger bun. Top with lettuce and tomato slices. Cover with the top half of the bun.
