Burger Patties

Toppings

Buns

Method

Preparing the Patties

  1. 1

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix gently with your hands until just combined. Be careful not to overwork the meat.

  2. 2

    Form the Patties

    Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape each portion into a patty, about ¾ inch thick. Make a small indentation in the center of each patty to help them cook evenly.

Cooking the Patties

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill or Pan

    Preheat your grill or a large skillet over medium-high heat. If using a skillet, you can add a little oil to prevent sticking.

  2. 4

    Cook the Patties

    Place the patties on the grill or skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side. Flip them over and place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty. Cook for another 3-4 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the patties reach your desired doneness.

Assembling the Cheeseburgers

  1. 5

    Prepare the Buns

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

  2. 6

    Build Your Burger

    On the bottom half of each bun, place a lettuce leaf followed by a cooked patty with melted cheese. Top with tomato slices, pickles, ketchup, and mustard. Finish with the top half of the bun.
