1
Prepare the Patty
In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Mix gently with your hands until just combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.
2
Form the Patties
Divide the beef mixture into two equal portions and shape each into a patty about 3/4 inch thick. Make a slight indentation in the center of each patty to prevent puffing during cooking.
3
Cook the Patties
Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. Once hot, place the patties on the grill or skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side, then flip and cook for another 4-5 minutes or until they reach your desired doneness.
4
Prepare the Toppings
While the burgers are cooking, slice the tomato and red onion. Shred the lettuce and prepare the pickles.
5
Assemble the Burger
Once the patties are cooked, place each patty on a burger bun. Layer with sliced tomato, shaved red onion, shredded lettuce, and sliced pickles.
6
Serve
Serve the burgers immediately with your choice of sides.
