Burger Patties

Toppings

Method

Prepare the Patties

  1. 1

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix gently until just combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.

  2. 2

    Form the Patties

    Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions (about 6 oz each) and shape them into patties. 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 skillet over medium-high heat.

  2. 4

    Cook the Patties

    Place the patties on the grill or skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium doneness. If using cheese, place a slice on each patty during the last minute of cooking to melt.

Assemble the Burger

  1. 5

    Toast the Buns

    If desired, toast the burger buns on the grill or in a toaster.

  2. 6

    Build the Burger

    Layer each bottom bun with lettuce, a patty, tomato slices, pickles, ketchup, and mustard. Top with the other half of the bun.
