Cheeseburger Recipe

Cooking Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Patties

   In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Form into two equal patties, about ¾ inch thick.

2. 2

   Cook the Patties

   Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on one side, then flip and add cheese on top. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the cheese melts and the burger is cooked to your liking.

3. 3

   Toast the Buns

   While the patties are cooking, toast the burger buns on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.

4. 4

   Assemble the Burger

   Place a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each bun. Add the cooked patty with melted cheese, followed by tomato slices, pickles, ketchup, and mustard. Top with the other half of the bun.

5. 5

   Serve

   Serve immediately with your choice of side, such as fries or a salad.
