1 pound Ground Beef

1 tsp Celtic sea salt

1/2 tsp black pepper

1/2 tsp Watkins garlic powder

1/2 tsp Onion powder

Toppings

2 slices Cheddar Cheese

4 slices Pickles

Method

Preparing the Burger Patty

Mix the Ingredients

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

Form the Patties

Divide the mixture into two equal portions and shape each into a round patty, about 3/4 inch thick.

Cooking the Burger

Preheat the Grill or Skillet

Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat.

Cook the Patties

Place the burger patties on the grill or skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side.

Add Cheese

Flip the patties and immediately place one slice of American cheese and one slice of cheddar cheese on each patty. Cook for an additional 4-5 minutes until the cheese is melted and the burger is cooked to your liking.

Assembling the Burger

Prepare the Buns

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

Layer the Ingredients

On the bottom half of each toasted bun, place a lettuce leaf, followed by the cooked burger patty with melted cheese, tomato slices, pickle slices, and a generous drizzle of ketchup, mustard, and mayonnaise.

Complete the Burger

Top with the other half of the bun and serve hot.
