Cheeseburger (evan’s Favorite) Recipe

Cheeseburger Preparation

1. 1

   Prepare the Patties

   In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, and black pepper. Form the mixture into two equal patties, about 1/2 inch thick.

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 for medium doneness, or until they reach your desired level of doneness.

3. 3

   Add Cheese

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

4. 4

   Toast the Buns

   While the cheese melts, split the hamburger buns and toast them on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.

5. 5

   Assemble the Burger

   On the bottom half of each toasted bun, layer lettuce, the cooked cheeseburger patty, tomato slices, pickles, ketchup, and mustard. Top with the other half of the bun.
