Beef Patties

Method

Beef Patties

  1. 1

    Prepare the beef mixture

    In a large bowl, combine the ground beef with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix gently using your hands or a spatula until evenly combined. Do not overmix to avoid tough patties.

  2. 2

    Form the patties

    Divide the beef mixture into 8 equal portions and shape them into small, flat patties about 2.5 to 3 inches in diameter. Make a small indentation in the center of each patty with your thumb to prevent puffing during cooking.

  3. 3

    Cook the patties

    Heat a skillet or grill over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 2–3 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. Place a slice of cheese on top of each patty during the last 30 seconds of cooking so it melts slightly. Remove the patties from heat and let them rest for a minute.

Cheeseburgers Assembly

  1. 4

    Toast the buns

    Spread a thin layer of softened butter on the cut sides of the mini buns. Toast them face-down in a skillet over medium heat for 1–2 minutes until golden brown. Remove from heat and set aside.

  2. 5

    Assemble the mini cheeseburgers

    Spread mayonnaise on the bottom half of each toasted bun. Place a small handful of shredded lettuce on top, followed by a cooked beef patty with melted cheese. Add a slice of cherry tomato, a few diced onions, and a dill pickle chip. Drizzle with ketchup and mustard as desired.

  3. 6

    Serve

    Top each burger with the upper half of the bun. Serve the mini cheeseburgers warm with your favorite sides like fries or chips.
