Cheeseburger Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beef

    In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, and black pepper. Mix well and shape into two equal patties.

  2. 2

    Cook the Patties

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the beef patties for about 3-4 minutes on one side, then flip and place a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each patty. Cook for another 3-4 minutes until the cheese is melted and the patties are cooked to your desired doneness.

  3. 3

    Toast the Buns

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

  4. 4

    Assemble the Cheeseburger

    On the bottom half of each toasted bun, layer lettuce, tomato slices, and onion slices. Place the cooked patty with melted cheese on top, followed by pickles, ketchup, and mustard. Finally, top with the other half of the bun.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the cheeseburgers immediately with your favorite sides.
