Cheeseburger Ingredients

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Patties

    In a bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, and black pepper. Mix until just combined, then form into 4 equal patties, each weighing about 4oz.

  2. 2

    Cook the Patties

    Heat a skillet or grill over medium heat and add vegetable oil. Once hot, add the patties and cook for approximately 3-4 minutes on one side.

  3. 3

    Add Cheese

    Flip the patties and place a slice of American cheese on each one. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until the burgers are medium well and the cheese has melted.

  4. 4

    Toast the Buns

    While the burgers are cooking, split the brioche buns and toast them on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Burgers

    Place each cheeseburger patty on the bottom half of a toasted brioche bun. Add any optional toppings if desired, then top with the other half of the bun.
