1
Prepare the Patties
In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Divide the mixture into two equal portions and shape them into burger patties.
2
Cook the Patties
Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the burger patties for about 4-5 minutes on one side. Flip the patties and place a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each patty. Cook for an additional 4-5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the patties reach your desired doneness.
3
Toast the Buns
While the patties are cooking, toast the burger buns on the grill or in a separate skillet until golden brown.
4
Assemble the Burgers
Once the patties are cooked and cheese is melted, place each patty on the bottom half of a toasted bun. Add your choice of toppings such as lettuce, tomato, pickles, onions, ketchup, mustard, and mayo. Top with the other half of the bun.
5
Serve
Serve the cheeseburgers immediately with your favorite sides.
