Method

Burger Patties Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beef Mixture

    In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix gently with your hands until just combined.

  2. 2

    Form the Patties

    Divide the beef mixture into two equal portions and shape each portion into a patty, about ¾ inch thick. Make a slight indentation in the center of each patty to prevent it from puffing up while cooking.

Cooking the Patties

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill or Skillet

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes.

  2. 4

    Cook the Patties

    Place the patties on the grill or skillet. Cook for 4-5 minutes on one side, then flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes for medium doneness. If using cheese, place a slice on each patty during the last minute of cooking to melt.

Assembling the Burger

  1. 5

    Prepare the Buns

    While the patties are cooking, slice the burger buns in half and toast them lightly on the grill or in a toaster if desired.

  2. 6

    Assemble the Burger

    On the bottom half of each bun, place a lettuce leaf, followed by a patty. Top with a slice of tomato, ketchup, and mustard. Place the top half of the bun on the burger.
