Method

Prepare the Burger Patty

  1. 1

    Mix Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix gently until just combined.

  2. 2

    Form Patties

    Divide the mixture into two equal parts and shape them into burger patties, about ¾ inch thick.

Cook the Patties

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill or Skillet

    Preheat your grill or skillet over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes.

  2. 4

    Cook the Patties

    Place the patties on the grill or skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side, then flip.

  3. 5

    Add Cheese

    After flipping the patties, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the cheese is melted and the patties reach desired doneness.

Assemble the Burger

  1. 6

    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.

  2. 7

    Add Toppings

    On the bottom half of each bun, add a leaf of lettuce, followed by a tomato slice, the cooked patty with melted cheese, pickles, ketchup, and mustard to taste.

  3. 8

    Complete the Burger

    Top with the other half of the bun and press down gently to secure the toppings.
