Method

Burger Patty Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix the Patty Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix gently until just combined.

  2. 2

    Form the Patties

    Divide the mixture into two equal portions and shape them into burger patties, about 3/4 inch thick.

Cooking the Burger

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill or Skillet

    Preheat your grill or skillet over medium-high heat.

  2. 4

    Cook the Patties

    Place the patties on the grill or skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side. Flip the patties and place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the cheese is melted and the patties are cooked to your desired doneness.

Assembling the Burger

  1. 5

    Toast the Burger Buns

    In a small skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the burger buns, cut side down, and toast until golden brown.

  2. 6

    Build the Burger

    On the bottom half of each toasted bun, layer lettuce, tomato, and the cooked patty with melted cheese. Top with red onion, pickles, and a drizzle of special sauce. Place the top half of the bun over the burger.
