Cheeseburger Ingredients

Method

Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Patties

    In a bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, and black pepper. Mix until just combined and form into two equal patties.

  2. 2

    Cook 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.

  3. 3

    Add Cheese

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

  4. 4

    Toast the Buns

    While the cheese is melting, toast the burger buns on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Cheeseburger

    On the bottom half of each bun, layer lettuce, the cooked patty with melted cheese, tomato slices, and condiments like ketchup and mustard. Top with the other half of the bun.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve immediately with your choice of sides.
