Burger Ingredients

Method

Burger Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Patties

    In a bowl, combine the Angus ground beef with salt and black pepper. Form the mixture into two equal-sized patties.

  2. 2

    Grill the Patties

    Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium doneness.

  3. 3

    Add Cheese

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

  4. 4

    Toast the Buns

    While the cheese is melting, lightly toast the hamburger buns on the grill until golden brown.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Burger

    On the bottom half of each bun, layer lettuce, the grilled patty with melted cheese, tomato, onion, and pickles. Top with the other half of the bun.
