Burger Ingredients

Method

Burger Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Patties

    In a mixing bowl, season the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Divide the beef into two equal portions and form each portion into a ball. Flatten each ball into a patty about 3/4 inch thick.

  2. 2

    Cook the Patties

    Preheat a large skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Place the patties in the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes on one side, until browned. Flip the patties and place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the cheese is melted and the burger is cooked to your desired doneness.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Buns

    While the patties are cooking, slice the burger buns in half and toast them lightly in another skillet or on a grill until golden brown.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Burgers

    On the bottom half of each toasted bun, layer lettuce, a slice of tomato, the cooked patty with melted cheese, pickles, and onion slices. Add ketchup and mustard to taste. Place the top half of the bun on each burger.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the burgers with your choice of brew and enjoy your Burger Night!
