Burger Ingredients

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Form the Patties

    In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix gently until just combined, then form into 4 equal-sized patties.

  2. 2

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill or skillet over medium-high heat.

  3. 3

    Cook the Burgers

    Place the patties on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side. Flip the burgers and add a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each patty. Cook for another 4-5 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the burgers are cooked to your desired doneness.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Buns

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

  5. 5

    Assemble the Burgers

    On each bottom bun, layer a lettuce leaf, a burger patty with melted cheese, a slice of tomato, pickles to taste, and any desired condiments like ketchup and mustard. Top with the other half of the bun.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve immediately while hot and enjoy your juicy burgers!
