Juicy Burgers Recipe

Burger Preparation

1. 1

   Prepare the Beef Patties

   In a bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix gently until just combined, then form into two equal patties.

2. 2

   Grill the Patties

   Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium doneness. If using cheese, add a slice on top of each patty during the last minute of cooking to melt.

3. 3

   Toast the Buns

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

4. 4

   Assemble the Burgers

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

5. 5

   Serve

   Serve the burgers immediately with your choice of sides.
