Burger Ingredients

Method

Burger Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Patties

    In a bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, and black pepper. Mix until just combined and form into two equal-sized 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 your desired level of doneness. If using cheese, place a slice on each patty during the last minute of cooking to melt.

  3. 3

    Toast the Buns

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

  4. 4

    Assemble the Burger

    On the bottom half of each bun, layer lettuce, the cooked patty, slices of heirloom tomato, pickles, and top with the other half of the bun.

  5. 5

    Serve with Fries

    Serve the assembled burgers with a side of fries.
