Burger Patties

Burger Assembly

Method

Preparing the Burger Patties

  1. 1

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and Worcestershire sauce. Mix well using your hands until fully incorporated.

  2. 2

    Form the Patties

    Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape each portion into a round patty, making a slight indentation in the center to prevent puffing during cooking.

Cooking the Patties

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill or Pan

    Preheat your grill or skillet over medium-high heat.

  2. 4

    Cook the Patties

    Place the patties on the grill or skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare or until desired doneness is achieved. If adding cheese, place a slice on each patty during the last minute of cooking.

Assembling the Burger

  1. 5

    Prepare the Buns

    While the patties are cooking, slice the burger buns in half and toast them lightly if desired.

  2. 6

    Layer the Ingredients

    On the bottom half of each bun, place a lettuce leaf, followed by a cooked patty, a slice of tomato, pickles, ketchup, and mustard to taste. Top with the other half of the bun.
