Method

Patty Preparation

Mix the Beef

In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix gently with your hands until just combined.

Form Patties

Divide the mixture into two equal portions and form them into patties about 3/4 inch thick. Make a slight indentation in the center of each patty to prevent them from puffing up during cooking.

Cooking the Patties

Heat the Grill or Pan

Preheat a grill or a skillet over medium-high heat. Ensure it's well-oiled to prevent sticking.

Cook the Patties

Place the patties on the grill or skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side. Flip them over and place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty. Cook for another 3-4 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the patty is cooked to your desired doneness.

Assembly

Prepare the Buns

While the patties are cooking, slice the hamburger buns in half and toast them lightly on the grill or in a toaster if desired.

Assemble the Cheeseburger

On the bottom half of each toasted bun, place a lettuce leaf followed by the cooked patty with melted cheese. Add a slice of tomato, pickles, and your choice of ketchup and mustard. Top with the other half of the bun.
