Burger Patties

Burger Assembly

Method

Preparing the Burger Patties

  1. 1

    Mixing Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Use your hands to mix until well combined.

  2. 2

    Forming Patties

    Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a round patty, about ¾ inch thick.

Cooking the Burgers

  1. 3

    Grilling the Patties

    Preheat 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 doneness.

  2. 4

    Adding Cheese

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

Assembling the Burgers

  1. 5

    Preparing the Buns

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

  2. 6

    Building the Burger

    On the bottom half of each bun, place a lettuce leaf, followed by the cooked patty with melted cheese, a slice of tomato (sliced), and add ketchup and mustard to taste. Top with the other half of the bun.
