Method

Burger Patties Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Meat Mixture

    In a mixing bowl, combine ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix gently using your hands until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the patties tender.

  2. 2

    Form the Patties

    Divide the meat 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 to prevent puffing during cooking.

Cooking the Burgers

  1. 3

    Cook the Patties

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, place the patties on the grill or skillet. Cook for 4-5 minutes on one side until browned, then flip.

  2. 4

    Add Cheese

    After flipping, add a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each patty. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the cheese is melted and the patties reach an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C).

Burger Assembly

  1. 5

    Prepare the Bun

    While the patties are cooking, slice the burger buns in half. If desired, toast the buns on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.

  2. 6

    Assemble the Burger

    On the bottom half of each bun, place a lettuce leaf, followed by the cooked patty with melted cheese. Top with tomato slices, pickles, ketchup, and mustard to taste. Finally, cover with the top half of the bun.
