Method

Burger Patty

  1. 1

    Prepare the Patty Mixture

    In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix gently until just combined.

  2. 2

    Form the Patties

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

Cooking the Patty

  1. 3

    Cook the Patties

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Place the patties on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side, then flip them.

  2. 4

    Add Cheese

    After flipping, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the patties reach the desired doneness.

Burger Assembly

  1. 5

    Toast the Buns

    While the patties are cooking, cut the burger buns in half and toast them on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.

  2. 6

    Assemble the Burger

    Spread ketchup and mustard on the bottom half of each bun. Place the cooked patty with melted cheese on top, followed by lettuce, sliced tomato, pickles, and onion. Top with the other half of the bun.

  3. 7

    Serve

    Serve the cheeseburgers immediately with your favorite side dishes.
