Burger Patty

Burger Assembly

Method

Prepare the Burger Patty

  1. 1

    Mix the Ingredients

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

  2. 2

    Form the Patties

    Divide the mixture into two equal portions and shape each portion into a patty, about ¾ inch thick. Make a slight indentation in the center of each patty to prevent it from puffing up while cooking.

Cook the Burger Patties

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill or Pan

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

  2. 4

    Cook the Patties

    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-rare, or longer for your preferred doneness.

  3. 5

    Add the Cheese

    In the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty. Cover with a lid to melt the cheese.

Assemble the Burger

  1. 6

    Prepare the Buns

    While the patties are 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 bun, place a lettuce leaf. Add the cooked burger patty with melted cheese on top, followed by a slice of tomato, pickles, ketchup, and mustard. Top with the other half of the bun.
