Burger Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beef Patty

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

  2. 2

    Grill the Patties

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

  3. 3

    Toast the Buns

    During the last minute of grilling, place the burger buns on the grill to toast lightly.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Burger

    Spread garlic aioli on the bottom half of each toasted bun. Place the grilled patty on top, add lettuce, and if desired, top with cheese. Finish with the top half of the bun.
