Method

Preparing the Burger Patty

  1. 1

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix well until the ingredients are evenly distributed.

  2. 2

    Shape the Patty

    Form the mixture into a round patty, approximately 4 inches in diameter and about 3/4 inch thick.

Cooking the Burger

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill or skillet over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes.

  2. 4

    Cook the Patty

    Place the patty on the grill or skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on one side.

  3. 5

    Add Cheese

    Flip the patty and place the slice of cheddar cheese on top. Cook for another 3-4 minutes until the cheese is melted and the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).

Assembling the Burger

  1. 6

    Prepare the Buns

    While the patty is cooking, slice the burger buns in half and toast them lightly on the grill or in a toaster.

  2. 7

    Layer the Ingredients

    On the bottom half of each toasted bun, place a lettuce leaf, followed by the cooked patty with melted cheese, a slice of tomato, and a dollop of ketchup and mustard.

  3. 8

    Complete the Burger

    Top with the other half of the bun. Serve immediately with your choice of sides!
