    Place the slice of cheddar cheese on top of the patty and cover to melt for about 1 minute.

  3. 3

    While the cheese melts, toast the burger bun in a separate pan or toaster until golden brown.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Burger

    Spread ketchup and mustard on the bottom half of the bun. Add lettuce, sliced tomato, and pickles. Place the cheeseburger patty on top, then close with the top half of the bun.

    Serve the cheeseburger with a side of French fries and coleslaw.
