1
Prepare the Beef
Take 0.5 pounds of fresh ground beef and shape it into a patty approximately 1 inch thick. Season both sides generously with salt and black pepper.
2
Preheat the Grill
Heat your grill or stovetop skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of cooking oil to prevent sticking.
3
Cook the Patty
Place the beef patty on the hot grill. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side without moving it. Flip the patty and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes for medium-rare, or longer for your desired doneness.
4
Toast the Roll
While the patty is cooking, place the Martin's Potato Roll on the grill for the last 1-2 minutes of cooking to toast it lightly.
5
Assemble the Burger
Once the patty is cooked to your liking, remove it from the grill. Place the cooked patty on the toasted Martin's Potato Roll. Top with a leaf of lettuce, slices of tomato, and onion.
6
Serve
Serve the burger hot with your choice of sides or condiments. Enjoy your Hero Burger!
