Burger Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Patties

    In a bowl, season the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Divide the beef into two equal portions and shape them into patties.

  2. 2

    Cook the Patties

    Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 3-4 minutes on one side, then flip them.

  3. 3

    Add Cheese

    Place a slice of American cheese on each patty after flipping. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the patties are cooked to your desired doneness.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Vegetables

    While the patties are cooking, slice the tomato and raw onion. Rinse the lettuce leaves and set aside.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Burger

    Toast the burger buns if desired. Place a lettuce leaf on the bottom bun, followed by the cooked patty with melted cheese, tomato slices, pickles, and raw onion. Top with the other half of the bun.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve the burgers immediately with your choice of side dishes.
