Preparation

1. Prepare the Beef

In a large bowl, combine the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Mix well and form into four equal patties.

2. Slice the Vegetables

Wash and slice the tomato into thin rounds. Rinse the lettuce and pat dry. Slice pickles if they are whole.

Cooking

3. Cook the Patties

Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the beef patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness.

4. Add Cheese

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

Assembly

5. Assemble the Burgers

Toast the burger buns lightly. On the bottom half of each bun, layer the lettuce, the cooked patty with melted cheese, tomato slices, and pickles. Add ketchup, mustard, and mayonnaise to taste. Top with the other half of the bun.
