Burger Ingredients

Method

Burger Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beef Patty

    In a mixing bowl, combine the Black Angus ground beef with salt and pepper. Form the mixture into two equal-sized patties.

  2. 2

    Cook the Patties

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the beef patties for about 4-5 minutes on one side, then flip and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until they reach your desired doneness.

  3. 3

    Add Cheese

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

  4. 4

    Prepare the Vegetables

    While the patties are cooking, wash and slice the tomato and onion. Rinse the lettuce and set it aside.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Burger

    To assemble, place a cooked patty on the bottom half of each burger bun. Top with lettuce, tomato slices, pickles, and onion. Add the top half of the bun to complete the burger.
