1
Prepare the Patties
In a mixing bowl, season the ground beef with salt and pepper. Form the beef into two equal-sized patties.
2
Cook the Patties
Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness.
3
Melt the Cheese
In the last minute of cooking, place a slice of American cheese on each patty to melt.
4
Prepare the Buns
Toast the burger buns on the grill or in a toaster until lightly golden.
5
Assemble the Burger
Spread the special sauce on the bottom half of each bun. Layer with lettuce, tomato slices, onion slices, pickles, and the cooked beef patty with melted cheese. Top with the other half of the bun.
6
Serve
Serve the burger immediately with your favorite sides.
