Method

Burger Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Patties

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

  2. 2

    Form the Patties

    Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a patty, about ¾ inch thick.

Cooking the Toppings

  1. 3

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a skillet over medium heat, add a little oil and sauté the sliced onion, green bell pepper, and mushrooms until they are soft and caramelized, about 8-10 minutes. Set aside.

Cooking the Burgers

  1. 4

    Cook the Patties

    In the same skillet, increase the heat to medium-high and cook the burger patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium doneness.

  2. 5

    Add Cheese

    In the last minute of cooking, place a slice of provolone cheese on each patty and cover the skillet to melt the cheese.

Assembling the Burger

  1. 6

    Prepare the Buns

    Toast the burger buns lightly on the skillet or in a toaster.

  2. 7

    Build the Burger

    Spread mayonnaise and ketchup on the bottom half of each toasted bun. Place the cooked patty with melted cheese on top, then add the sautéed vegetables. Top with the other half of the bun.
