Method

Preparation of Burger Patty

  1. 1

    Mix Ingredients

    In a mixing bowl, combine ground beef, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.

  2. 2

    Form Patties

    Divide the mixture into two equal portions and shape them into round patties, about 3/4 inch thick.

Cooking the Burger

  1. 3

    Preheat Grill or Pan

    Preheat your grill or a skillet over medium-high heat.

  2. 4

    Cook Patties

    Place the burger patties on the grill or skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side, then flip them over.

  3. 5

    Add Cheese

    After flipping, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty. Cook for an additional 4-5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the burger is cooked to your desired doneness.

Assemble the Burger

  1. 6

    Toast the Buns

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

  2. 7

    Layer Ingredients

    On the bottom half of each toasted bun, spread ketchup and mustard. Place the cooked burger patty with melted cheese on top, followed by a leaf of lettuce, a slice of tomato, and pickles.

  3. 8

    Complete the Burger

    Top with the other half of the bun and serve immediately.
