Burger Ingredients

Method

Burger Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beef Patties

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the patties tender.

  2. 2

    Form the Patties

    Divide the beef mixture into four equal portions and shape them into round patties, about 3/4 inch thick. Make a slight indentation in the center of each patty to help them cook evenly.

  3. 3

    Cook the Patties

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on one side. Flip them, add a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each patty, and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the cheese is melted and the patties are cooked to your desired doneness.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Buns

    While the patties are cooking, lightly toast the burger buns on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Burgers

    On the bottom half of each toasted bun, place a lettuce leaf, followed by a cooked patty with melted cheese, a slice of tomato, a few pickles, and your choice of condiments (ketchup, mayonnaise, mustard).

  6. 6

    Top the Burgers

    Place the top half of the bun on each assembled burger. Press down gently to help everything stick together.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Serve the burgers immediately with extra condiments and sides of your choice.
