Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Patties

In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Divide the mixture into four equal parts and shape them into patties.

2

Cook the Patties

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

3

Add Cheese

During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of American cheese on each patty and cover to melt the cheese.

4

Assemble the Burgers

Toast the burger buns lightly. On the bottom half of each bun, place a leaf of lettuce, followed by the cooked patty with melted cheese, a slice of tomato, and the top half of the bun.

5

Serve

Serve the burgers with a side of crispy fries or golden tater tots.
