Burger Patties

Burger Assembly

Method

Preparing Burger Patties

  1. 1

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix until the spices are evenly distributed in the meat.

  2. 2

    Shape the Patties

    Divide the meat mixture into two equal portions and shape each portion into a patty about 1/2 inch thick. Make a slight indentation in the center of each patty to prevent them from puffing up during cooking.

Cooking the Patties

  1. 3

    Heat the Grill or Skillet

    Preheat your grill or skillet over medium-high heat. If using a skillet, add a small amount of oil to prevent sticking.

  2. 4

    Cook the Patties

    Place the patties on the grill or skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side, then flip and place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty. Cook for another 4-5 minutes until the cheese is melted and the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).

Assembling the Burger

  1. 5

    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.

  2. 6

    Layer the Ingredients

    On the bottom half of each toasted bun, place a lettuce leaf, followed by a cooked patty with melted cheese, a slice of tomato, pickles, ketchup, and mustard. Place the top half of the bun on each assembled burger.

Serving the Burger

  1. 7

    Presentation

    Serve the Big DoubleTM burgers immediately while hot, with additional sides of fries or salad if desired.
