Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beef Patties

    In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Mix gently and form into two 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 for medium doneness.

  3. 3

    Add Cheese

    During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty and cover until melted.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Buns

    While the cheese is melting, toast the hamburger buns on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Burger

    Spread ketchup and mustard on the bottom half of each bun. Add the lettuce, cooked patty with melted cheese, tomato slices, and onion slices. Top with the other half of the bun.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve the cheeseburger warm with your choice of sides.
