Burger Patty

Toppings

Method

Preparing the Patty

  1. 1

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix until just 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 is slightly larger than the bun, as the patty will shrink while cooking.

Grilling the Patty

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat for about 5-10 minutes.

  2. 4

    Cook the Patties

    Place the patties on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium doneness. In the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty and close the grill lid to melt the cheese.

Assembling the Burger

  1. 5

    Prepare the Buns

    Slice the burger buns in half if not pre-sliced. Lightly toast them on the grill for about 1-2 minutes until golden brown.

  2. 6

    Add Toppings

    On the bottom half of each bun, layer a leaf of lettuce, followed by a slice of tomato. Place the grilled patty with melted cheese on top, and add ketchup and mustard to taste. Finally, cover with the top half of the bun.
