Burger Patties

Toppings

Burger Buns

Method

Preparing the Patties

  1. 1

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and Worcestershire sauce. Mix gently with your hands until all ingredients are well combined.

  2. 2

    Form the Patties

    Divide the meat mixture into four equal portions and shape each portion into a round patty, about 1 inch thick. Make a slight indentation in the center of each patty to help them cook evenly.

Cooking the Patties

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill or Skillet

    Preheat your grill or skillet over medium-high heat. You can lightly oil the grill grates or skillet to prevent sticking.

  2. 4

    Cook the Patties

    Place the patties on the grill or skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side, then flip them and cook for another 3-4 minutes for medium doneness. If adding cheese, place a slice on each patty during the last minute of cooking to melt.

Assembling the Burger

  1. 5

    Toast the Buns

    While the patties are cooking, slice the burger buns in half and toast them on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.

  2. 6

    Build the Burger

    On the bottom half of each toasted bun, layer lettuce, a cooked patty, tomato slices, pickles, ketchup, and mustard. Top with the other half of the bun.
