Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Patties

In a mixing bowl, combine ground beef, salt, and black pepper. Form the mixture into 4 equal patties, each weighing approximately 4 ounces.

2

Cook the Patties

Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium doneness, or until they reach your desired level of doneness.

3

Toast the Buns

During the last minute of cooking, place the hamburger buns cut side down on the grill or skillet to toast lightly.

4

Assemble the Burger

Place a cooked patty on the bottom half of each toasted bun. Top with lettuce, tomato slices, onion rings, and pickles. Place the top half of the bun on top to complete the burger.
