Burger Patties

Method

Cooking Burger Patties

  1. 1

    Prepare the Meat

    In a large bowl, combine ground beef, salt, black pepper, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix until thoroughly combined.

  2. 2

    Form Patties

    Divide the meat mixture into 4 equal portions and shape them into burger patties, pressing slightly in the center to prevent puffing during cooking.

  3. 3

    Cook the Patties

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until they reach the desired doneness. During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty to melt.

  4. 4

    Prepare Buns

    Toast the burger buns on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.

Making BBQ Sauce

  1. 5

    Combine Ingredients

    In a medium saucepan, combine ketchup, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt.

  2. 6

    Simmer the Sauce

    Heat the mixture over medium heat until it begins to simmer, stirring frequently. Reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 15 minutes to thicken.

Chili Toppings Preparation

  1. 7

    Prepare Toppings

    In small bowls, prepare sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese, chopped green onions, and pickled jalapeños for serving.
