Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the beef patties

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

  2. 2

    Cook the patties

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 3-4 minutes on each side for medium doneness. If using cheese, add a slice on top of each patty during the last minute of cooking to melt.

  3. 3

    Toast the buns (optional)

    While the patties are cooking, you can toast the burger buns on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.

  4. 4

    Assemble the burgers

    Place the cooked patties on the bottom half of the toasted buns. Top with lettuce, tomato, pickles, ketchup, and mustard. Cover with the top half of the buns.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve immediately while hot with your favorite side dishes.
