Method

Prepare Burger Patty

  1. 1

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix gently with your hands until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the patties tender.

  2. 2

    Form Patties

    Divide the mixture into two equal portions and shape each portion into a patty, roughly 3/4 inch thick. Make a slight indentation in the center of each patty to prevent puffing during cooking.

Cook the Patties

  1. 3

    Heat the Grill or Pan

    Preheat a grill or a skillet over medium-high heat. If using a skillet, add a small amount of oil to prevent sticking.

  2. 4

    Cook the Patties

    Once hot, place the patties on the grill or skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side, then flip the patties.

  3. 5

    Add Cheese

    After flipping, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the cheese is melted and the patty is cooked to your desired doneness.

Prepare Toppings

  1. 6

    Slice the Tomato

    While the patties are cooking, wash and slice the tomato into medium-thick slices.

  2. 7

    Prepare Lettuce and Pickles

    Rinse the lettuce leaves and pat them dry. Prepare pickle slices if not pre-sliced.

Assemble the Burger

  1. 8

    Toast the Buns

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

  2. 9

    Build the Burger

    On the bottom half of each toasted bun, layer the lettuce, followed by the burger patty with melted cheese, tomato slices, pickle slices, ketchup, and mustard. Top with the other half of the bun.
