Classic Cheeseburger* Recipe

Cooking Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Beef Patties

   In a mixing bowl, combine ground beef with salt and black pepper. Mix gently and form into two equal-sized patties.

2. 2

   Cook the Patties

   Preheat a grill or stovetop skillet over medium-high heat. Add the patties and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired doneness.

3. 3

   Add Cheese

   During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of Tillamook cheddar cheese on each patty and cover the grill or skillet to melt the cheese.

4. 4

   Prepare the Buns

   While the patties are cooking, slice the burger buns in half and toast them lightly on the grill or in a toaster.

5. 5

   Assemble the Burger

   On the bottom half of each toasted bun, place a piece of lettuce, followed by the cheeseburger patty. Top with slices of tomato and onion, and add ketchup and mustard to taste. Finish with the top half of the bun.

6. 6

   Serve

   Serve the cheeseburgers immediately with your choice of sides.
