Method

Prepare the Burger Patties

  1. 1

    Mix Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix gently with your hands until just combined; do not overwork the meat.

  2. 2

    Form Patties

    Divide the meat mixture into 12 equal portions and shape each portion into a small patty, about 1/2 inch thick.

Cook the Patties

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill or Skillet

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat.

  2. 4

    Cook Patties

    Place the patties on the grill or skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on one side, then flip them over.

  3. 5

    Add Cheese

    After flipping, add a slice of cheddar cheese to each patty. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the patties reach your desired doneness.
