Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Patty

    In a large bowl, combine ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix until well combined.

  2. 2

    Form the Burgers

    Divide the mixture into two equal portions and form them into patties, about 3/4 inch thick.

  3. 3

    Cook the Burgers

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium doneness, adding a slice of cheddar cheese on top during the last minute to melt.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Buns

    While the patties are cooking, you can toast the burger buns on the grill or in a separate skillet until golden brown.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Burger

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

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve immediately with your favorite side dishes.
