Toppings

Buns

Method

Preparing the Patties

  1. 1

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix until evenly combined without overworking the meat.

  2. 2

    Form the Patties

    Divide the mixture into two equal portions and shape each portion into a patty, approximately ¾ inch thick.

Cooking the Patties

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill or Pan

    Preheat a grill or a 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, or until they reach your desired level of doneness.

  3. 5

    Add Cheese

    In the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty and cover to melt.

Assembling the Cheeseburger

  1. 6

    Prepare the Buns

    Toast the burger buns lightly on the grill or in a toaster.

  2. 7

    Assemble the Cheeseburger

    On the bottom half of each bun, place a lettuce leaf, followed by a cooked patty with melted cheese. Top with sliced tomato, onion, pickles, and your choice of ketchup and mustard. Finally, place the top half of the bun on top.
