Burger Ingredients

Method

Burger Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Patty

    In a bowl, combine the ground beef with diced jalapeños, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.

  2. 2

    Form the Burger

    Shape the mixture into a patty about 1/2 inch thick. Make a small indentation in the center to help it cook evenly.

  3. 3

    Cook the Burger

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patty for about 3-4 minutes on each side for medium doneness. In the last minute of cooking, place cheddar cheese on top of the patty to melt.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Burger

    Toast the burger bun if desired. Place the cooked patty on the bottom half of the bun. Top with lettuce, tomato, ketchup, and mustard. Place the top half of the bun on and serve.
