Cook the Beef Patties
While the fries are cooking, shape the ground beef into two equal patties. Season with salt and pepper. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the patties for about 4 minutes on each side or until desired doneness.

Assemble the Hamburger
During the last minute of cooking the patties, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty to melt. Toast the hamburger buns on the skillet if desired. Assemble by placing the patty on the bottom bun, followed by lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, ketchup, and mustard. Top with the other half of the bun.
