Method

Preparing the Patty

  1. 1

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix gently with your hands until just combined.

  2. 2

    Form the Patties

    Divide the mixture into two equal portions and shape each portion into a patty about ¾ inch thick, making a slight indentation in the center of each patty for even cooking.

Cooking the Patty

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill or Pan

    Preheat your grill or a skillet over medium-high heat. If using a skillet, add a little oil to prevent sticking.

  2. 4

    Cook the Patties

    Place the patties on the grill or skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side until browned. Flip the patties over, and cook for an additional 4-5 minutes for medium doneness.

  3. 5

    Add Cheese

    In the last minute of cooking, place cheese slices on top of each patty. Cover with a lid to melt the cheese.

Assembling the Hamburger

  1. 6

    Prepare the Bun

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

  2. 7

    Layer the Ingredients

    On the bottom half of each toasted bun, place a lettuce leaf, followed by the cooked patty with melted cheese, tomato slices, pickles, ketchup, and mustard.

  3. 8

    Finish the Hamburger

    Top with the other half of the bun and press down gently. Serve immediately.
