1
Prepare the Patties
In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Mix gently and form into two equal-sized patties.
2
Cook the Patties
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until cooked to your desired doneness.
3
Add Cheese
During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheese on each patty. Cover the skillet to help the cheese melt.
4
Prepare the Buns
While the patties are cooking, slice the burger buns in half and toast them lightly if desired.
5
Assemble the Burger
Spread mayonnaise on the bottom half of each bun. Add lettuce, followed by the cooked patty with melted cheese, sliced tomato, and top with the other half of the bun.
6
Serve
Serve the deluxe cheeseburger immediately with your favorite sides.
