Preparation

Preparing the Patties

1. Mix the Ingredients

In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix gently until just combined.

2. Form the Patties

Divide the meat mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a burger patty, about 3/4 inch thick.

3. Chill the Patties

Place the formed patties on a plate and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to help them hold their shape while cooking.

Cooking the Patties

4. Preheat the Grill or Skillet

Preheat your grill or skillet over medium-high heat.

5. Cook the Patties

Place the burger patties on the grill or skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side until browned.

6. Flip and Add Cheese

Flip the patties and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes. During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty and cover to melt.

Assembling the Burger

7. Prepare the Buns

Toast the burger buns on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.

8. Add the Patties

Place each cooked patty on the bottom half of the toasted bun.

9. Add Toppings

Layer the lettuce, tomato (sliced), pickles, and onion (sliced) on top of the patties.

10. Add Condiments

Spread ketchup, mustard, and mayonnaise on the top half of the bun to taste.

11. Complete the Burger

Place the top half of the bun on the assembled toppings and serve immediately.
