Method

Prepare the Patty

  1. 1

    Mix Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.

  2. 2

    Form Patties

    Divide the meat mixture into two equal portions and shape each portion into a patty that is slightly larger than the burger bun.

Cook the Patty

  1. 3

    Preheat Grill or Skillet

    Preheat your grill or skillet over medium-high heat.

  2. 4

    Cook Patties

    Place the patties on the grill or skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side, then flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C). If using cheese, add it in the last minute of cooking to melt.

Prepare the House Sauce

  1. 5

    Combine Ingredients

    In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, ketchup, Dijon mustard, and pickle relish until well combined.

Assemble the Burger

  1. 6

    Prepare Buns

    Toast the burger buns on the grill or in a toaster until lightly golden.

  2. 7

    Add Lettuce and Tomato

    On the bottom half of each bun, place a lettuce leaf, followed by a slice of tomato.

  3. 8

    Add Patty

    Place the cooked burger patty on top of the tomato slice.

  4. 9

    Add Sauce

    Spread the house sauce generously on the top half of the bun, then place it on top of the patty to complete the burger.
