Method

Burgers

  1. 1

    Prepare the Patties

    In a mixing bowl, combine ground beef, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix gently until just combined. Form into 4 equal-sized patties.

  2. 2

    Cook the Patties

    Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook each patty for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until cooked to desired doneness.

  3. 3

    Add Cheese

    In the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty. Cover the grill or skillet to melt the cheese.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Buns

    Toast the burger buns on the grill or in a toaster until lightly golden.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Burgers

    Spread ketchup and mustard on the bottom half of each bun. Place the lettuce, cooked beef patty with melted cheese, tomato slices, and pickles on top. Finish with the top half of the bun.

Fries

  1. 6

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Wash and peel the potatoes. Cut them into thin strips to create fries.

  2. 7

    Heat the Oil

    In a deep fryer or large pot, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).

  3. 8

    Fry the Potatoes

    Carefully add the cut potatoes to the hot oil in batches. Fry for about 5-7 minutes or until golden and crispy.

  4. 9

    Drain and Season

    Remove the fries from the oil and drain on paper towels. While still hot, sprinkle with salt to taste.
