Burger Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beef Patty

    In a bowl, combine the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Mix gently and form into a patty.

  2. 2

    Cook the Patty

    Heat a skillet or grill over medium-high heat. Cook the beef patty for about 4-5 minutes on one side. Flip it and cook for another 3-4 minutes, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness.

  3. 3

    Add Cheese

    In the last minute of cooking, place the cheddar cheese slice on top of the patty to melt.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Burger

    Toast the burger bun if desired. Place the lettuce, cooked patty with melted cheese, tomato slices, onion slices, ketchup, and mustard on the bottom half of the bun. Top with the other half of the bun.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve immediately and enjoy your single patty cheeseburger!
