Burger Ingredients

Toppings

Method

Burger Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Patty

    In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently to avoid overworking the meat.

  2. 2

    Form Patties

    Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape each portion into a patty about 3/4 inch thick.

  3. 3

    Cook the Patties

    Preheat a grill or frying pan over medium-high heat. Cook each patty for about 4-5 minutes on one side until browned.

  4. 4

    Add Cheese

    Flip the patties and place a slice of cheese on each one. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the cheese is melted and the patty is cooked to your desired doneness.

Assemble the Burger

  1. 5

    Prepare the Buns

    While the patties are cooking, slice the burger buns in half and toast them lightly on the grill or in a toaster if desired.

  2. 6

    Add Toppings

    On the bottom half of each toasted bun, place a leaf of lettuce, a slice of tomato, a slice of onion, and some pickles.

  3. 7

    Finish the Burger

    Place the cooked patty with melted cheese on top of the toppings, followed by your preferred amount of ketchup and mustard. Top with the other half of the bun.
