Burger Assembly

Method

Prepare the Burger Patty

  1. 1

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix gently until well combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.

  2. 2

    Form the Patties

    Divide the mixture into two equal portions and shape each portion into a patty that’s about 3/4 inch thick.

Cook the Burger Patties

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill or Skillet

    Preheat your grill or a skillet over medium-high heat.

  2. 4

    Cook the Patties

    Place the patties on the grill or skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).

  3. 5

    Add Cheese

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

Assemble the Burgers

  1. 6

    Prepare the Buns

    Toast the hamburger buns on the grill or in a toaster until lightly golden.

  2. 7

    Layer the Ingredients

    On the bottom half of each bun, layer a lettuce leaf, followed by a burger patty with melted cheese, a slice of tomato, and your preferred amount of ketchup and mustard.

  3. 8

    Finish the Burger

    Place the top half of the bun on each burger and press down gently to secure.
