Hamburger Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

1

Prepare the Patties

In a bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix until just combined and form into two equal patties.

2

Grill 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. In the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty to melt.

3

Toast the Buns

While the patties are cooking, cut the burger buns in half and toast them on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.

4

Assemble the Burger

Place each cooked patty on the bottom half of a bun. Top with lettuce, tomato slices, pickles, and the top half of the bun.

5

Serve with Cheez-Its

Serve the hamburgers with a side of Cheez-Its and your choice of drink.
