Crush Burger Recipe

Burger Preparation

1. 1

   Prepare the Patties

   In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently until just combined. Divide the mixture into two equal portions and shape each portion into a patty about ¾ inch thick.

2. 2

   Cook the Patties

   Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the beef patties and cook for about 3-4 minutes on one side until browned. Flip the patties and place a slice of American cheese on each patty. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the patties reach your desired doneness.

3. 3

   Prepare the Sauce

   In a small bowl, mix together the ketchup and mayonnaise until well combined. This will be your sauce for the burger.

4. 4

   Assemble the Burgers

   Toast the burger buns on the grill or in a toaster until lightly golden. Spread a generous amount of the ketchup-mayo sauce on the bottom half of each bun. Place the cooked patty with melted cheese on top, followed by the pickle slices. Top with the other half of the bun.

5. 5

   Serve

   Serve the burgers immediately while hot with additional ketchup and mayonnaise on the side, if desired.
