Burger Ingredients

Method

Burger Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Patties

    In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently to combine, being careful not to overwork the meat. Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each into a patty.

  2. 2

    Cook the Patties

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on one side. Flip them and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, adding a slice of cheese on top during the last minute if desired.

  3. 3

    Toast the Buns

    While the patties are cooking, you can toast the burger buns on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Burgers

    Spread mayonnaise on the bottom bun, place the cooked patty on top, and layer with lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, ketchup, and mustard as desired. Top with the other half of the bun.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the burgers immediately with your favorite sides.
