Method

Bun Preparation

  1. 1

    Toast the Bun

    Preheat a skillet over medium heat. Spread butter on the cut side of the sesame seed hamburger bun. Place the bun in the skillet, cut side down, and toast until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from skillet and set aside.

Patty Cooking

  1. 2

    Cook the Beef Patty

    Form the ground beef into a patty about 4 oz in weight. Season both sides with salt and black pepper. In the same skillet used for the bun, increase the heat to medium-high. Cook the patty for about 3-4 minutes on each side for medium doneness, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness.

Assembly

  1. 3

    Assemble the Burger

    Place the cooked patty on the bottom half of the toasted bun. Lay a slice of American cheese on top of the patty and let it melt slightly. Add shredded lettuce, two slices of pickles, ketchup, and mustard. Finally, place the top half of the bun on the assembled ingredients.

Serving (Optional)

  1. 4

    Serve with Sides

    If desired, serve the burger with a side of French fries and a cup of soft drink. Enjoy your homemade McDonald's style burger!
