1
Prepare the Beef Patty
In a bowl, season the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Form into two equal patties.
2
Cook the Patties
Heat a skillet or grill over medium-high heat. Cook the beef patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired doneness.
3
Add Cheese
During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty and cover to melt.
4
Prepare the Buns
Toast the burger buns on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.
5
Assemble the Burger
Spread special sauce on the bottom half of each bun. Place the cooked beef patty with melted cheese on top, followed by lettuce and tomato slices. Top with the other half of the bun.
6
Serve
Serve immediately with your choice of sides.
