Method

Burger Patty Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Patty Mixture

    In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Use your hands to mix the ingredients until just combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.

  2. 2

    Form the Patties

    Divide the meat mixture into two equal portions and form them into patties, about ¾ inch thick. Make a slight indentation in the center of each patty to help them cook evenly.

Cooking the Burgers

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill or Skillet

    Preheat your grill or a skillet over medium-high heat. If using a skillet, add a little oil to prevent sticking.

  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 top of each patty. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the patties are cooked to your desired doneness.

Assembling the Burger

  1. 5

    Toast the Buns

    Lightly toast the burger buns on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.

  2. 6

    Build the Burger

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