Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beef Patty

    Season the dry aged beef patty with salt and pepper. Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat and cook the patty for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until it reaches your desired level of doneness.

  2. 2

    Melt the Cheese

    In the last minute of cooking, place the slice of American cheese on top of the beef patty. Cover it with a lid to help the cheese melt.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Vegetables

    While the patty is cooking, slice the tomato and onion. Wash and prepare the lettuce leaf.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Burger

    Toast the burger bun lightly. On the bottom half of the bun, spread the 540 sauce. Place the beef patty with melted cheese on top, followed by the slices of tomato, onion, and the lettuce. Top with the other half of the bun.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the burger immediately with your choice of sides.
