Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Burger Patties

    In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix gently until just combined. Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape them into patties.

  2. 2

    Cook the Patties

    Preheat a grill or frying pan over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on one side, then flip them. Place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty and cook for an additional 4-5 minutes, or until desired doneness is reached.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Burgers

    Toast the burger buns lightly on the grill or in a toaster. On the bottom half of each bun, layer the lettuce, the cooked patty with cheese, tomato slices, pickles, ketchup, and mustard. Top with the other half of the bun.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Serve the burgers immediately with your favorite sides.
