1
Prepare the Patties
In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently and form into two patties.
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 doneness.
3
Prepare the Vegetables
While the burgers are cooking, wash the lettuce and slice the tomato. Dice the raw onion as finely as you like.
4
Assemble the Burger
Spread the special sauce on the bottom half of each burger bun. Place the cooked patty on top, followed by lettuce, tomato slices, pickles, and diced raw onion. Top with the other half of the bun.
5
Serve
Serve the burgers immediately with your choice of sides.
