Burger Assembly

Method

Prepare the Beef Patty

  1. 1

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a mixing bowl, combine 1 pound of ground beef, 1 tsp of salt, 1 tsp of black pepper, and 1 tsp of garlic powder. Mix gently to avoid overworking the meat.

  2. 2

    Form the Patties

    Divide the mixture into two equal portions and shape them into round patties, about 3/4 inch thick. Make a slight indentation in the center of each patty to help them cook evenly.

Cook the Beef Patty

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill or Skillet

    Preheat your grill or skillet over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes.

  2. 4

    Cook the Patties

    Place the patties on the grill or skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side, then flip and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes or until they reach an internal temperature of 160°F (70°C).

  3. 5

    Add Cheese

    In the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty to melt.

Assemble the Burger

  1. 6

    Toast the Buns

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

  2. 7

    Layer the Ingredients

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