Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare Patties

    In a bowl, mix the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Divide into two equal portions and shape them into patties.

  2. 2

    Cook the Patties

    Preheat a skillet or grill over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired doneness.

  3. 3

    Add Cheese

    During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of American cheese on each patty to melt.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Burgers

    Toast the burger buns lightly. On the bottom half of each bun, place a lettuce leaf, followed by the cheese-topped patty, tomato slices, pickles, ketchup, and mustard. Top with the other half of the bun.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Cut the burgers in half if desired and serve immediately.
