Method

Burger Patties

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beef Patties

    In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix gently until just combined. Do not 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 them from puffing up while cooking.

Cooking the Patties

  1. 3

    Cook the Burger Patties

    Preheat a skillet or grill over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on one side until browned. Flip and cook for another 4-5 minutes on the other side.

  2. 4

    Add Cheese

    In the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty and cover to melt the cheese.

Cooking the Bacon

  1. 5

    Cook the Bacon

    In a separate skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Assembling the Burger

  1. 6

    Assemble the Burger

    Toast the burger buns lightly on the grill or in a toaster. On the bottom half of the bun, layer lettuce, the cooked patty with melted cheese, crispy bacon, tomato slices, and pickles. Drizzle with ketchup and mustard to taste.

  2. 7

    Finish the Burger

    Place the top half of the bun over the assembled ingredients. Secure with a toothpick if desired, cut in half, and serve immediately.
