Hamburger Ingredients

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beef Patties

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

  2. 2

    Form the Patties

    Divide the mixture into two equal portions and form them into patties, about 3/4 inch thick.

  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 for medium doneness, adding cheese slices on top in the last minute of cooking.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Buns

    While the patties are cooking, toast the hamburger buns on the grill or in a toaster until lightly golden.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Hamburger

    On the bottom half of each bun, place a lettuce leaf, followed by the cooked patty with melted cheese, a slice of tomato, and your desired condiments (ketchup and mustard). Top with the other half of the bun.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve the hamburgers immediately with your choice of sides.
