Method

Prepare the Burger Patty

  1. 1

    Mix Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Use your hands to mix the ingredients until just combined.

  2. 2

    Form Patties

    Divide the beef mixture into two equal portions and shape each portion into a patty, about ¾ inch thick. Make a slight indentation in the center of each patty with your thumb to prevent puffing during cooking.

Cook the Burger Patty

  1. 3

    Preheat Grill or Pan

    Preheat your grill or a skillet over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes.

  2. 4

    Cook Patties

    Place the patties on the grill or skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side, then flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes. Add a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each patty during the last minute of cooking to allow it to melt.

Assemble the Cheeseburger

  1. 5

    Prepare Buns

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

  2. 6

    Build the Burger

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