Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Patties

    In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix gently until just combined. Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each portion 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, then flip them. Place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until the desired doneness is reached.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Burgers

    Toast the burger buns on the grill or skillet for a minute until lightly golden. Place a patty on the bottom half of each bun. Top with lettuce, tomato slices, pickles, ketchup, and mustard. Cover with the top half of the bun.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Serve the burgers immediately with your favorite sides.
