Burger Patties

Cheese

Buns and Toppings

Method

Prepare the Patties

  1. 1

    In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix gently until just combined.

  2. 2

    Divide the mixture into two equal portions and shape each portion into a patty, slightly larger than the hamburger buns.

Cook the Patties

  1. 3

    Pan-Frying Instructions

    Heat a non-stick skillet or grill over medium-high heat. Place the patties in the skillet once it’s hot.

  2. 4

    Cook the patties for about 3-4 minutes on one side, then flip them over.

  3. 5

    Place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty after flipping and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until the cheese has melted and the patties are cooked to your desired doneness.

Assemble the Cheeseburgers

  1. 6

    While the patties are cooking, slice the tomato and onion, and prepare the lettuce.

  2. 7

    Toast the hamburger buns lightly if desired.

  3. 8

    Once the patties are cooked, place each patty on the bottom half of a bun. Top with lettuce, tomato, onion, ketchup, and mustard.

  4. 9

    Cover with the top half of the bun and serve immediately.
