1
Prepare the Patty
In a bowl, mix the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Form the mixture into a 7oz patty.
2
Cook the Patty
Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patty for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness.
3
Toast the Buns
While the patty is cooking, slice the burger buns and toast them on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.
4
Assemble the Burger
Place the cooked patty on the bottom half of the toasted bun. Top with lettuce, tomato, and cheese if desired. Cover with the top half of the bun.
