Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Patties

    In a bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently and form into two equal-sized patties.

    In the last 2 minutes of cooking, place the hamburger buns cut-side down on the grill or skillet to toast.

    Place a cooked patty on the bottom half of each toasted bun. Top with ketchup, mustard, pickles, and onion. Place the top half of the bun over the toppings.
