Burger Patty

Burger Assembly

Method

Preparing the Burger Patty

  1. 1

    Mixing the Ingredients

    In a mixing bowl, combine the Wagyu beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix gently with your hands to incorporate the spices into the meat without overworking it.

  2. 2

    Shaping the Patties

    Divide the meat mixture into two equal portions and shape them into burger patties, making a slight indentation in the center of each patty to prevent it from puffing up during cooking.

Cooking the Burger

  1. 3

    Grilling the Patties

    Preheat your grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, place the burger patties on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side until a nice sear forms.

  2. 4

    Flipping and Adding Cheese

    Flip the patties and place a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each patty. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the patty is cooked to your preferred doneness.

Assembling the Burger

  1. 5

    Toasting the Buns

    While the patties are cooking, slice the burger buns in half and toast them lightly on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.

  2. 6

    Building the Burger

    On the bottom half of each toasted bun, spread mayonnaise, mustard, and ketchup. Then, place the cooked Wagyu patty with melted cheddar cheese on top. Add a lettuce leaf, a slice of tomato, and pickles before placing the top bun on.
