Method

Prepare Burger Patties

  1. 1

    Mix Ingredients

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

  2. 2

    Form Patties

    Divide the mixture into two equal portions and shape each portion into a round patty approximately 3/4 inch thick.

Cook Patties

  1. 3

    Preheat Grill or Skillet

    Preheat your grill or skillet over medium-high heat.

  2. 4

    Cook Patties

    Once hot, place the patties on the grill or skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side, then flip and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes for medium doneness. If using cheese, place a slice on each patty during the last minute of cooking to melt.

Assemble Burger

  1. 5

    Prepare Toppings

    While the patties are cooking, wash and dry the lettuce leaves, slice the tomato, and thinly slice the onion.

  2. 6

    Assemble the Burger

    Toast the hamburger buns if desired. Place a cooked patty on the bottom half of each bun. Top with lettuce, tomato, onion, ketchup, and mustard. Place the top half of the bun on each burger.
