Method
Beef Patty Preparation
Prepare the Beef Mixture
In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix gently until the spices are evenly distributed.
Form the Patties
Divide the beef mixture into two equal portions and shape them into patties, making a slight indentation in the center of each patty to help them cook evenly.
Burger Assembly
Prepare the Bun
While the patties are cooking, slice the burger buns in half and toast them lightly on the grill or in a toaster.
Slice the Tomato
Wash the tomato and slice it into thin rounds.
Assemble the Burger
On the bottom half of each toasted bun, place a lettuce leaf, followed by the cooked patty, a slice of tomato, and finally a generous drizzle of special sauce. Top with the other half of the bun.
