Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Patty

    In a bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently until just combined. Form into a patty about 3/4 inch thick.

  2. 2

    Cook the Patty

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patty for about 3-4 minutes on one side, then flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes, or until it reaches your desired doneness.

  3. 3

    Add Cheese

    During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on top of the patty and cover to melt.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Burger

    Toast the burger bun lightly. Place the cooked patty with melted cheese on the bottom half of the bun. Top with lettuce, tomato, pickles, ketchup, and mustard. Close the burger with the top half of the bun.
