Preparation Steps
- 1
Prepare the Meat
In a large bowl, combine the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Mix gently to avoid overworking the meat.

Form the Patties
Shape the meat mixture into two equal patties, making an indentation in the center of each patty to help them cook evenly.

Cook the Patties
Add the patties to the skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side, until browned. Flip the patties and place a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each. Cook for another 3-4 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the patties are cooked to your desired doneness.
- 5
Toast the Buns
While the patties are cooking, cut the brioche buns in half and toast them in the skillet for about 1-2 minutes until golden brown.

Assemble the Burger
On the bottom half of each toasted bun, layer the lettuce, followed by the cooked patty with melted cheese, sliced tomato, and onion. Top with the other half of the bun.

Serve
Serve the burger hot with your favorite sides.
