Burger Patties

Buns

Method

Preparing the Burger Patties

  1. 1

    Forming the Patties

    In a large mixing bowl, gently combine the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions, shaping each into a loose ball.

  2. 2

    Smashing the Patties

    Preheat a skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Once hot, place the meat balls on the skillet and use a spatula to press down firmly on each ball to flatten it into a patty. Cook for about 3-4 minutes until the edges are browned.

  3. 3

    Flipping the Patties

    Using a spatula, carefully flip each patty and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the desired doneness is reached.

Assembling the Burger

  1. 4

    Prepare the Bun

    Lightly toast the burger buns on the skillet for about 1-2 minutes until golden brown.

  2. 5

    Layer the Ingredients

    On the bottom half of each bun, place a leaf of lettuce, followed by a slice of tomato, a patty, a few slices of red onion, and a generous amount of pickles.

  3. 6

    Final Touch

    Top with the other half of the bun and press down gently to hold everything together.
