Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Patty

    In a bowl, season the ground beef with salt and black pepper to taste. Form the beef into a round patty, about 3/4 inch thick.

  2. 2

    Cook the Patty

    Preheat a skillet or grill over medium-high heat. Cook the patty for about 3-4 minutes on one side, then flip it.

  3. 3

    Add Cheese

    Once flipped, place the slice of cheddar cheese on top of the patty and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the cheese is melted and the patty is cooked to your desired doneness.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Burger

    Toast the burger bun lightly if desired. Place the cooked patty with melted cheese on the bottom half of the bun. Top with lettuce, tomato slices, pickles, ketchup, and mustard.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Place the top half of the bun on the assembled ingredients, cut in half if desired, and serve immediately.
