Half Pound Chili Burger Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Burger Patties

   In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined, but do not overwork the meat. Divide the mixture into two equal portions and shape them into patties.

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, or until they reach an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C). If using cheese, add a slice to each patty during the last minute of cooking to melt.

3. 3

   Assemble the Burgers

   Toast the burger buns on the grill or in a toaster. Place each patty on a bun and top with your choice of lettuce, sliced onions, and tomatoes. Serve with a side of chili beans.
