Fries Ingredients

Method

Burger Directions

  1. 1

    Preparing the Burger Patties

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

  2. 2

    Forming Patties

    Divide the mixture into two equal portions and form into patties, about 1 inch thick. Make a slight indentation in the center of each patty to help it cook evenly.

  3. 3

    Cooking the Patties

    Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until cooked to your preference.

  4. 4

    Adding Cheese

    If using cheese, place a slice on each patty during the last minute of cooking and cover to melt.

  5. 5

    Assembling the Burger

    Toast the burger buns on the grill or in a toaster. Place a lettuce leaf on the bottom bun, add the cooked patty, top with tomato slices, pickles, ketchup, and mustard before placing the top bun.

Fries Directions

  1. 6

    Preparing the Fries

    Preheat the oven or fryer according to package instructions for the frozen fries.

  2. 7

    Cooking the Fries

    Arrange the frozen fries in a single layer on a baking sheet or in the fryer basket. Drizzle with vegetable oil if baking. Cook according to package directions until golden and crispy.

  3. 8

    Seasoning the Fries

    Once cooked, season with salt to taste and toss to coat evenly.
