Burger Patties

Burger Assembly

Method

Preparing the Patties

  1. 1

    Mixing Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix well using your hands until the ingredients are evenly incorporated.

  2. 2

    Forming the Patties

    Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape each portion into a patty about ¾ inch thick, making a slight indentation in the center to prevent puffing while cooking.

Cooking the Patties

  1. 3

    Grilling the Patties

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, place the patties on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side. Flip the patties and cook for an additional 4 minutes.

  2. 4

    Adding Cheese

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

Assembling the Burger

  1. 5

    Preparing the Vegetables

    While the patties are cooking, slice the tomato and onion into thin rings.

  2. 6

    Toasting the Buns

    If desired, toast the burger buns on the grill for about 1-2 minutes until golden brown.

  3. 7

    Building the Burger

    To assemble, spread ketchup and mustard on the bottom half of each bun. Place a lettuce leaf, followed by the cheeseburger patty, tomato rings, and onion rings. Top with the other half of the bun.
