Method

From the Grill

  1. 1

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates with olive oil to prevent sticking.

  2. 2

    Divide the ground beef into four equal portions and gently shape each into a patty about 3/4 inch thick.

  3. 3

    Season both sides of each patty with 1/2 teaspoon salt.

  4. 4

    Sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon black pepper over both sides of the patties.

  5. 5

    Place patties on the hot grill and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, until a rich crust forms and the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).

  6. 6

    Top patties with cheddar cheese slices during the last minute of grilling and allow the cheese to melt.

  7. 7

    Lightly toast the hamburger buns on the grill until golden brown.

  8. 8

    Spread mayonnaise on the bottom buns. Mix ketchup and yellow mustard and spread on the top buns.

  9. 9

    On each bottom bun, place a lettuce leaf, then a tomato slice and a ring of red onion.

  10. 10

    Add 2 pickle slices on top of the vegetables.

  11. 11

    Top each cheese-topped patty with a bun bottom and cap with the top bun.

  12. 12

    Serve immediately with any extra condiments on the side.
