1
Prepare the Patties
Form the ground beef into two equal patties, season with salt and pepper.
2
Cook the Patties
Heat a skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Place the patties on the skillet and smash them down with a spatula for a crispy edge. Cook for about 3-4 minutes.
3
Add Cheese
Flip the patties and place a slice of American cheese on each. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the cheese is melted.
4
Toast the Rolls
While the patties are cooking, lightly toast the potato rolls on another pan or griddle.
5
Assemble the Burger
Spread house burger sauce on the bottom half of each roll. Place a cheeseburger patty, followed by onion slices and pickles. Top with the other half of the roll.

6
Prepare the Potatoes
Wash and cut the potatoes into fries. Soak them in cold water for about 30 minutes to remove excess starch.
7
Heat the Oil
In a deep fryer or heavy pot, heat vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).
8
Fry the Potatoes
Drain and pat dry the soaked fries. Carefully add them to the hot oil, frying in batches until golden brown, about 4-5 minutes.
9
Season the Fries
Remove the fries from the oil and drain on paper towels. Sprinkle with salt to taste.
