Patty

1 lbs Ground Beef

1 tsp Celtic sea salt

1/2 tsp black pepper

1/2 tsp Watkins garlic powder

Toppings

1 slice Cheddar Cheese

1 leaf Lettuce

1 slices Tomato

2 slices Pickles

Bun

1 whole Hamburger Bun

1 tbs Butter

Method

Prepare the Patty

Mix the Beef

In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix gently until fully combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.

Form the Patty

Divide the mixture into equal parts and shape each into a round patty about 3/4 inch thick.

Cook the Patty

Preheat the Grill or Skillet

Preheat your grill or a skillet over medium-high heat.

Cook the Patty

Place the beef patties on the grill or skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side, then flip and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).

Add Cheese

In the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each patty and cover to melt.

Prepare the Bun

Butter the Bun

Spread butter on the cut side of the hamburger bun.

Toast the Bun

Place the bun butter-side down on the grill or skillet for about 1-2 minutes until golden brown.

Assemble the Cheeseburger

Build the Burger

On the bottom half of the toasted bun, layer the lettuce leaf, followed by the cooked patty with melted cheese, then add tomato slices and pickles.

Top it Off

Place the top half of the bun on the assembled ingredients.
