Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Wash and prepare all vegetables. Slice the tomatoes and onion, and chop the lettuce.

    Season the Beef Patties

    In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Form into 4 even patties.

  3. 3

    Cook the Beef Patties

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the beef patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until they reach desired doneness.

  4. 4

    Add Cheese

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

  5. 5

    Toast the Buns

    While the patties are cooking, lightly toast the hamburger buns on the grill or in a toaster.

  6. 6

    Assemble the Burgers

    Spread ketchup and mustard on the bottom bun, add the beef patty with melted cheese, then layer with lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and pickles. Top with the other half of the bun.

  7. 7

    Serve the burgers immediately with your favorite sides or enjoy them as they are.
