Cheeseburger Ingredients

Method

Cheeseburger Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beef Patty

    In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, and black pepper. Gently mix until just combined. Form the mixture into a burger patty about ¾ inch thick.

  2. 2

    Cook the Patty

    Heat cooking oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the beef patty to the skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on one side until a crust forms.

  3. 3

    Flip the Patty

    Carefully flip the patty using a spatula. Cook for an additional 3 minutes on the other side.

  4. 4

    Add Cheese

    Place a slice of American cheese on top of the patty in the last minute of cooking. Cover the skillet with a lid to help melt the cheese.

  5. 5

    Prepare the Bun

    While the cheese is melting, toast the burger bun in a separate pan over low heat until golden brown, about 1-2 minutes.

  6. 6

    Assemble the Burger

    Spread 2 tablespoons of cherry pepper mayo on the bottom half of the toasted bun. Place the cooked patty with melted cheese on top, followed by the sliced sour pickles and diced white onion. Top with the other half of the bun.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Serve the cheeseburger immediately while hot, with your choice of sides.
