Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Patty

    In a bowl, season the ground beef with salt and pepper. Form it into a patty about 3/4 inch thick.

  2. 2

    Cook the Patty

    Preheat a skillet or grill over medium-high heat. Cook the patty for about 3-4 minutes on one side until browned, then flip and cook for another 3 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add Cheese

    In the last minute of cooking, place the slice of American cheese on top of the patty and cover to melt.

  4. 4

    Toast the Bun

    While the cheese is melting, toast the burger bun on the grill or skillet until golden brown.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Burger

    Spread ketchup and mustard on the bottom half of the bun. Place the cooked patty with melted cheese on top, followed by pickles and onions. Top it with the other half of the bun.

  6. 6

    Serve the cheeseburger hot and enjoy!
