Cheeseburger Ingredients

Method

Cheeseburger Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beef Patties

    In a mixing bowl, combine ground beef, salt, and black pepper. Form into two equal-sized patties.

  2. 2

    Cook the Patties

    In a preheated skillet or grill over medium-high heat, cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired doneness.

  3. 3

    Add Cheese

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

  4. 4

    Prepare the Buns

    Toast the burger buns on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Burger

    On the bottom half of each bun, place a lettuce leaf, followed by the tomato slice, and then the cheesy beef patty. Add ketchup and mustard to taste, and top with the other half of the bun.

  6. 6

    Cook the French Fries

    While the burgers are cooking, prepare the French fries according to package instructions, or fry them in oil until golden brown and crispy.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Serve the cheeseburger with a side of French fries.
