Burger Ingredients

Method

Burger Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Patties

    In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix until just combined, then form into 4 equal patties.

  2. 2

    Cook the Patties

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired doneness. During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty to melt.

  3. 3

    Toast the Buns

    While the patties are cooking, lightly toast the hamburger buns on the grill or in a toaster.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Burger

    On the bottom half of each bun, place a lettuce leaf, followed by the cooked patty with melted cheese, a slice of tomato, and your choice of ketchup and mustard. Top with the other half of the bun.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the Drover Cheeseburger with a dill spear and your choice of French fries, cole slaw, or cottage cheese on the side.
