Burger Patties

Cheeseburger Assembly

Method

Burger Patties Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beef Mixture

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix until well combined.

  2. 2

    Form the Patties

    Divide the beef mixture into 12 equal portions and shape each portion into a small patty, about 1/2 inch thick.

Cooking the Patties

  1. 3

    Heat the Grill or Skillet

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat.

  2. 4

    Cook the Patties

    Place the patties on the grill or skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until they reach your desired level of doneness.

  3. 5

    Add Cheese

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

Assembling the Mini Cheeseburgers

  1. 6

    Toast the Buns

    While the patties are cooking, lightly toast the mini burger buns on the grill or in a toaster.

  2. 7

    Build the Cheeseburgers

    On each bottom bun, place a lettuce leaf, a cooked patty with melted cheese, a slice of tomato, a pickle slice, and a squeeze of ketchup and mustard to taste.

  3. 8

    Finish and Serve

    Top each with the other half of the bun and serve immediately while warm.
